Roller Blinds

Roller blinds are a versatile and practical option, suited to a wide range of rooms and interior styles.

Available in an extensive choice of colours, patterns and finishes, they can be kept minimal or used as a subtle design feature. Water-resistant fabrics make roller blinds particularly suitable for kitchens and bathrooms, while blackout options are ideal for bedrooms where light control and privacy are important.

Their simple operation and clean appearance make them a popular choice for both modern and traditional homes.

Roman Blinds

Roman blinds provide a softer, more decorative finish, combining the practicality of a blind with the appearance of fabric curtains. They are often chosen for living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms, where warmth and texture are important.

All fabrics are supplied with a quality lining as standard, with optional blackout or thermal linings available to enhance light control, insulation and comfort.

Roman blinds also work well when layered with curtains, allowing colours and patterns to be matched or complemented for a more furnished look.

Venetian Blinds

Venetian blinds offer excellent control over light and privacy, making them a highly functional option for many areas of the home.

Available in wood, faux wood and aluminium, each material offers its own benefits. Aluminium venetians are water-resistant and easy to maintain, making them suitable for kitchens and bathrooms. Wooden venetians add natural warmth and character, while faux wood options combine the appearance of timber with increased durability and resistance to moisture.

The adjustable slats allow light levels to be finely controlled throughout the day.

Vertical Blinds

Vertical blinds are a practical solution for large windows, bay windows and patio doors. The rotating slats allow precise control over light and privacy, while the ability to draw the blinds fully open makes them ideal for wide openings.

Vertical blinds are low maintenance and well suited to both residential and commercial spaces.

Individual slats can be cleaned or replaced if required, helping to extend the life of the blind and keep it looking neat over time.
