Bistro Blinds, Shade Screens or Outdoor Blinds?
Bistro blinds are also known as “shade screens” because they provide benefits like protection from sunlight and weather and complete privacy.
These shades are typically made from fabric that looks like a window screen and installed over an existing window rather than located in a wall or ceiling.
At the same time, bistro blinds are also known as Outdoor blinds, Outdoor roller blinds and Cafe blinds.
What are the advantages of having shade in your outdoor area?
Nowadays, when you think about outdoor living, one thing is clear: shade is key!
Actually, shade blinds offer many advantages and are a great way to keep your outdoor space cool and comfortable, especially during the summer months. Moreover, it also prevents your furniture from getting too hot and fading in the sunshine.
For example, on a sunny day, the weather can beat down on you and will be really hard to enjoy your time outside. That is why having a bistro shade in your outdoor area can help.
Bistro blinds can protect you from the heat, create a more serene environment and make it more comfortable and relaxed and basically, will help you enjoy your outdoor area.
Our range of fabrics is highly durable for the Australian outdoor LIVING
At Open N Shut, we will help you choose from a range of colours and fabrics, including mesh and blackout blinds. Our team of experts will suggest the best option for you depending on your needs and the space you are covering.
To manufacture our bistro blinds, we use a market-leading PVC-coated polyester that blocks and reflects up to 95% of solar energy. Also, you can opt for 99% blackout at a higher cost to have the maximum block of shade available while still allowing air to pass through, helping to create a cooler, more comfortable environment.
So, if you live in an area with lots of sunlight, it might be best to get a light-filtering material that allows some light through but still provides privacy. If there are large windows or doors where people can see into your home, consider getting mesh bistro blinds made with darker materials so that no one can see inside.

MESH blinds vs pvc blinds
From our experience, we can say that PVC bistro blinds are not a good idea compared to fabric materials because:
– They don’t breathe, so they can trap moisture in your windows and make them more likely to get mouldy
– PVC bistro blinds are more durable than fabric, so they’ll fade with time, which can look dull
– They don’t block out as much light as fabric, so they’ll let in more heat if you live in a warm area
– PVC bistro blinds are more expensive than fabric, so they’re not a good choice if you want to save money
– Cleaning pvc bistro blinds is hard and makes them less hygienic than fabric.
– Cleaning mesh blinds is way easier, just follow our eight tips on how to clean outdoor roller blinds.
