Protecting our living and working spaces from intense heat becomes paramount during the summer. Preston Hardware’s range of window coverings is designed to offer a stylish and practical solution to beating the summer heat. Our products provide superior sun shielding, effectively blocking out the harsh rays that can cause discomfort and disrupt the ambiance of your interior space.
The benefits of our window coverings extend beyond just sun protection; they also play a significant role in energy efficiency. Keeping the sun’s heat at bay reduces the need for excessive air conditioning, leading to lower energy bills and a smaller carbon footprint. This is good for your wallet and the environment, making your choice of Preston Hardware’s window coverings a responsible and sustainable one. In addition to their functional benefits, our window coverings enhance privacy and security, making them ideal for residential and commercial spaces.
Preston Window Coverings offers extensive products to meet various aesthetic and functional needs. For instance, the Vignette® Modern Roman Shades by Hunter Douglas provides a classic look with modern functionality, blending into any decor and offering effective light control. The Sonnette™ Cellular Roller Shades are another popular choice, known for their energy-efficient design that helps maintain indoor temperature and reduce energy costs.
Shades offer timeless elegance and are available in a unique combination of sheer and opaque fabrics that enhance any room’s ambiance. Additionally, woven wood shades can bring your space a natural, organic feel while providing substantial sun protection.
Many solutions are available for those seeking advanced technology in their window treatments. Automation allows you to schedule your window treatments to open and close at specific times, adding convenience and efficiency to your daily routine. This system is compatible with various smart home systems, allowing seamless integration into your tech-savvy lifestyle.
For a more traditional approach, horizontal and vertical blinds offer straightforward functionality and a wide range of materials and colours. Sheers and shadings are perfect for those who want to enjoy natural light without compromising privacy.
Preston Hardware’s Window Coverings are more than just a shield against the sun—they are a wise investment in comfort, energy efficiency, and style.
