What are the best blinds for a kitchen?

2" faux wood blinds are the go-to for kitchens because they wipe clean and tolerate humidity. Vinyl mini blinds work well on small sink windows when you want a lower cost.

Are fabric roller shades OK in a kitchen?

Only with wipeable vinyl or PVC fabrics mounted away from the range. Soft woven fabrics absorb cooking oils and are harder to clean.

How do I measure a kitchen sink window?

Measure width at three points and height on both sides. Use the narrowest width for inside mount. Sink windows are often shallower than bedroom frames — verify depth before ordering.

Mount tips for kitchens

Sink windows are often shorter and shallower. Confirm depth and keep the lift out of the splash zone when you can.

Measure sink windows separately — sizes rarely match bedroom modules
Inside mount keeps treatments clear of cabinet hardware
Cordless lifts avoid dangling cords over counters
Outside mount helps if trim is uneven after remodel
