The 3 Best Window Treatments for Super-Busy People

Whether you work full-time, take care of your house full-time, or travel nonstop, taking time to perform routine home maintenance is sometimes impossible. Most stay-at-home moms can agree that finding time to clean (and re-clean) is no easy feat.

That’s why at Utah Blinds Gallery, we’ve made a special list of our favorite window treatments that are perfect for super-busy people; they take minimal time to clean and maintain, and you don’t have to compromise style, functionality, or durability, either.

#1: Roller Shades

If you prefer a soft window treatment and like to add pops of color or patterns to your home, our Hunter Douglas roller shades are an easy win. While we have seven different roller shade options to choose from, our Designer Roller Shades are the #1 for our choice for busy people. Designing your room with these shades is easy and versatile, with over 350 color/fabric choices.

They are also the easiest soft window treatment to clean. The material is dust-resistant thanks to the flat-front design and can be easily maintained with a soft cloth. You won’t find yourself reaching for the duster often with these, though, which pushes them to the top of our list.

#2: Blinds

Yes, you read that right: classic blinds come in at #2 on our list of window treatments for busy people. They’re simple but durable, classic but stylish, and you can choose from versatile materials and finishes like natural wood or aluminum. They’re ideal for high-traffic homes and can easily withstand your daily wear and tear.

And, like everything else Hunter Douglas does, they take a classic window treatment like blinds and make them as innovative and sleek as possible. They also come in various slat sizes and operational systems, so you can upgrade the look and feel of your blinds as you see fit.

The only routine care you’ll need to worry about is dusting. Did you know there are specialty dusters designed to clean around blind cords? Check those out if you need an even easier way to maintain your blinds.

#3: Shutters

Shutters are a classic window treatment for so many reasons, and Hunter Douglas makes the design of a traditional plantation shutter even better with their unique Truemill® dovetail construction. We love shutters for busy people and busy households because they’ll hold up to pretty much anything – including the not-so-gentle grip of your littles and furry friends.

Cleaning shutters is a breeze because, like blinds, they can’t be permeated by dust and thus can be easily maintained with routine dusting. Hunter Douglas constantly makes innovations in their products, and their shutters also boast effective stain resistance from the biggest mess-makers in your home.

Life Hack: Consider Smart Automation

If your daily life is nonstop, you must consider opting for smart automation with your window treatments via PowerView® Automation. You can schedule your shades to open/close, control them remotely from your smartphone, utilize voice commands via your existing smart home system, and more.

You’ll never have to worry about running to shut the shades before you leave for work again. It’s a game changer for anyone with their hands full (no, literally, you can finally open the blinds with no hands!)

The best part is that all three window treatments we highlighted are compatible with PowerView® Automation!
