 Roller Blinds

Simple and stylish design that allows you to make a feature of your windows by unrolling virtually any fabric you take a shine to.

Wooden Blinds

Add a flourish of natural textures and colours to your home with a set of wooden blinds. Made from a series of slats, they allow you to combine your favourite material with a classic venetian design.

Venetian Blinds

One of the most popular styles, venetian blinds are made from horizontal slats joined together with premium quality fabric known as tapes.

Vertical Blinds

Commonly found in offices, vertical blinds are typically made from fabric and can be easily used to control the light levels in your chosen space. Ideal for adding privacy control to your home in a matter of seconds.

Roman Blinds

A sophisticated style that allows you to make a real feature of your window spaces. The cascading fabric is cut to neatly fold back on itself as you raise and lower your blind.

Day Night Blinds

A new concept that gives you control of the light levels in the day, and plenty of privacy in the evening. Ideal when you want the best of both worlds.

Blackout Blinds

Blackout blinds are made with a great night’s sleep in mind. By using special opaque fabrics they prevent ambient light getting into your room — ideal for bedrooms and multi media rooms.

Plantation Shutters

Plantation shutters are best suited in large window spaces where you want to be able to maximise your control of the light. A stylish addition to any home that is available in a variety of different finishes.

Conservatory Blinds

Saving energy is what conservatory blinds do best. They’re made from a special thermal range of fabrics so that they’re able to keep your conservatory cooler in the summer, and warmer in the winter.

Skylight Blinds

Skylight blinds are specially designed to work with certain window systems, and allow you to have full control over the light levels even when your windows aren’t vertically mounted.

Office Blinds

We don’t just make blinds for home studies, we’re also lending a hand with commercial office makeovers all over the country.

Electric Blinds

Electric or motorised blinds use the same designs as our Roller and Wooden range, so you get all the most popular patterns/colour choice with the added benefit of automatically raising and lowering your blinds. They’re easily controlled by remote, app or smart home, fully rechargeable, no wiring and look great.

Materials used for Blinds

Plastic

Plastic blinds are lightweight, contemporary, and come in any colour you like. Perfect if you want to add something bright and vibrant to your home.

Wood

A classic and timeless material that’s still alive and well. Some of the most stylish blinds are made from it, and it allows you to add a natural texture and colour to any room in the house.

Metal

Metal blinds offer a sleek and minimalist finish that is great everywhere from the master bedroom to the home office. An inspired choice if you want something a little different.

Fabric

Fabric blinds come in every colour, pattern, and design that you can think of. With a choice of styles that includes the ever-popular Roman and Roller varieties, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from.

Specialist Textiles

Conservatory blinds and blackout blinds are commonly made from specially formulated materials that offer additional benefits. Whether it be energy saving through increased thermal efficiency, or total blackout due to the high levels of opacity, blinds made using specialist textiles can add something amazing to any room in the house.
