Buying Roman Blind Cord For Repairing Roman Blinds
Unlike Venetian blinds you may have a bit more trouble trying to imagine Roman blinds, or indeed finding out their origins. However in the modern understanding Roman blinds are made from soft fabric and that fabric is gathered into pleats when raised; you will no doubt find other interpretations of what “Roman” shades and blinds are, but they are fabric in the vast majority of cases. So they are not much like Venetian blinds with their horizontal slats but rather like curtains with a Roman blind cord to raise and lower them.
If you are in the USA you are more you are more likely to refer to Roman shades rather than blinds, as they are called in the UK and other Commonwealth countries. In popularity terms, Roman blinds seem to be running neck and neck with Venetian blinds. Like the Venetian, the Roman blinds also relies on blind cord to raise and lower them. If you are buying new blinds then the Roman blind cord should be included, but do be sure if you are going the independent route. It is best to have the blinds professionally installed unless you are a patient and competent DIY person.
