Frequently asked Questions
I'm not sure which type of blinds to go for.
Blinds come in all sorts of designs and features to accommodate for all types of shading and privacy requirements. A few things to consider are:
- The room it is being used in. For kitchens or bathrooms you might want to consider a PVC fabric or a venetian blind suitable for damp conditions, whereas for a bedroom you might want to look at blackout fabrics and window drapings such as roman blinds and curtains.
- How much privacy and light control you want.
- The existing colour scheme and any furniture or décor you want to compliment.
Blind Types
Roller blinds are suitable for any room in the home as they are available with water resistant, blackout, dim-out, flame retardant and energy saving fabric properties to suit your requirements. Roller blinds lend themselves particularly well to bedrooms and nurseries where high shading levels are required.
Great for:
- Bedrooms
- Bathrooms
- Nurseries
- Living room
- Kitchen
Vertical blinds are a popular choice as they can be used for both windows and patio doors and give you ample light control by tilting the louvres to let in as much or little sunshine as you want. Their sleek design and PVC fabric options make them extremely flexible in usage and will seamlessly blend into existing interiors.
Great for:
- Living rooms
- Bathrooms
- Kitchen
- Patio doors
The luxurious Allusion blind brings the elegance of a voile curtain, combined with the flexibility of a vertical blind. Allusion blinds are available in sizes up to 5m in width, making them ideal for large windows and patio doors, as the free flowing fabric panels allows you to walk undisturbed between your indoor and outdoor spaces.

Day & Night blinds, often referred to as Duo blinds or Vision blinds, are made up of a double-layered fabric with sheer strips that you can adjust depending on the time of day. Choose from blackout and dim-out fabrics depending on your preference and usage. Think of it as a venetian blind with a dash more privacy like a roller blind.
