What you need to know about cafe and outdoor blinds

Below, the team of Perth patio professionals at One Stop Patio Shop have compiled information relating to how to keep your cafe or outdoor blinds looking great.

• Did you know cafe and outdoor blinds last longer if they’re kept extended? This means keeping them in a vertical position as much as possible to ensure the material will maintain its shape.
• Blinds that are too tight will contract (or ‘waste’) in the middle because of the unnecessary tension. Avoid this by loosening the tension slightly to ensure your cafe or outdoor blinds can ‘breathe.’
• Avoid rolling up your cafe or outdoor blinds if/when they are wet. This will only cause damage.

The above steps will add to an enjoyable experience in your Perth patio, by ensuring functional and aesthetic, well-kept cafe or outdoor blinds.
