Every owner has faced the problem of masking pipes in the toilet. These communications sometimes look very unsightly. You can close them with regular curtains or install hinged doors. But then the cistern will interfere with their opening, and such doors will not look very harmonious, especially against the backdrop of the beautiful tiles on the walls of the bathroom. In addition, it should be remembered that such pipes should have free access in case of emergency.
Therefore, blinds are an excellent modern element of decor and at the same time an excellent disguise for pipes in the toilet. Their use is especially convenient in cramped small bathrooms. This type of camouflage will reliably cover the niche with sewer and water pipes, filters and water meters. What types of blinds are there for the toilet?
Roller blinds for the toilet
In the toilet room, roller or cassette blinds, as they are also called, are most often used. They look great in this room, allow you to save free space, and, if the need arises, roller blinds will easily free up access to communications in the toilet.
Cassette blinds are most often controlled using a chain, which helps wind the curtain into a roll, which is hidden in a box near the ceiling. Modern models of roller blinds are closed using an electric drive with remote control. Sometimes there is also a spring method for controlling roller blinds.
When carrying out repairs, horizontal cassette blinds, located at the top of the room, will not suffer at all. These blinds are decorated with various designs. This is done with a special airbrush. Plastic roller blinds can be easily wiped with a damp sponge or even washed. You can use various detergents to care for them.
Some homeowners don’t want to use fabric roller blinds for toilets because they easily absorb odors. In addition, in a humid environment, the fabric covering may lose its original shape.
It is possible to use aluminum cassette blinds in the toilet. They meet all the requirements for this room. However, when purchasing them, do not forget to ask the seller what detergents can be used to care for aluminum blinds.

Horizontal blinds for the toilet
Horizontal blinds attached to a closet in the toilet, made of plastic or aluminum, look great. Since the sizes of the toilet room in apartments are different, before buying blinds, you should take all the measurements from your closet, and only then go to the store to purchase.
Horizontal blinds, like roller blinds, rise up and are fixed there, which is very convenient when carrying out various repairs inside the cabinet with communications. The control mechanism for horizontal blinds is a chain. Models of horizontal blinds with electronic control are in demand.

Vertical blinds are almost never used in the toilet, as they will visually lengthen the already narrow small bathroom space.
Roller shutters or blinds are also used in the toilet, but their design is more cumbersome and the cost is much higher than that of conventional blinds, although they perform the same functions. Therefore, it is better to buy them for owners of spacious bathrooms.
As you can see, blinds can not only protect from too bright sunlight, but also be used indoors. Blinds of various textures and colors fit perfectly into any interior style. A dressing room with blinds will look modern and harmonious.
