Window Treatments for Sculleries

At Blind Builders serving Bucks and Montgomery County, we enjoy helping our clients find the right window covering for any room in their home, from bedrooms to media rooms to living rooms and more. And lately, we’ve noticed a trend of people asking us about how they can best treat a scullery window. Yes, it’s true—even though most people associate “scullery” with Victorian days, those handy extra kitchen areas are making a comeback. If you’re lucky enough to have a scullery in your home, read on for our tips on how to treat its window.

What Are Sculleries Anyway?

As noted, sculleries have lately been making a comeback in new builds and home remodels. They are like mini prep kitchens and usually sit beside the main kitchen. They typically offer extra cabinet space, a sink, and sometimes additional appliances like a smaller fridge or another dishwasher. A scullery can be used for food prep, extra storage, and a way to hide kitchen mess during dinner parties.

Best Shades or Blinds for Scullery Windows

Any room that has a window can be susceptible to air leakage or damage from harmful UV rays, and a scullery is just the same. And because you’ll be doing work in that room, you’ll want to feel comfortable in it, so be sure to find a covering that offers both aesthetics and functionality. Here are some of the goals our customers have had for their scullery window treatments and some of the solutions they selected:

• Energy efficiency. If it’s left untreated, a window can let inside air out and outside air in, so customers frequently find insulation to be a high-value factor. Duette® Cellular Shades can trap air at the windows, ensuring that what’s inside stays inside and what’s outside stays out. Plus, they provide excellent light and privacy control, sound absorption, and effortless style.
• Easy maintenance. If your scullery has high moisture, aluminum or faux wood blinds can be a great solution. Both Hunter Douglas Everwood® Alternative Wood Blinds and Modern Precious® Aluminum Blinds never go out of style, can be cleaned fairly easily, and are a good value.
• Modern aesthetics. For a touch of modern elegance, consider Roman Shades, which combine the softness of drapery with crisp, clean folds. Vignette® Modern Roman Shades from Hunter Douglas offer a dash of pizzazz through color, pattern, and texture.
