Roller Blinds
Our roller blinds are made by our in – house team in Nottinghamshire and all are bespoke.
We have a wide choice of roller blinds. From, voiles for day time privacy, dim-out roller blinds, which allow a small amount of light but give night time privacy too and blackout roller blinds. In certain situations, bottom up blinds or pull up blinds can be used where privacy is required without blocking out the view or the light. Also available are heat reflective, UV filter and water proof roller blinds.
- All our blinds can be operated manually via a chain or motorised and operated via a wall switch or remote control. Spring rolls can be used on smaller windows where the blind is not used that often but side winders provide better control.
Roller blinds are the perfect solution if you have little space around the window or wish to optimise the amount of light coming into the room when the blind is not in use

Frequently asked questions
Commonly asked questions…
We offer both roller and roman blinds made to measure, with a huge range of fabrics to choose from to fully customise your design.
All blinds installed in UK homes now need to comply with certain regulations to make them safer. Any style of blind can be made safer, by limiting the length of the cord, removing cords altogether or by using special attachments to secure the cord lengths.
We make all our blinds to fit your window, no matter the size! Our team will carefully measure your window to ensure the blind fits exactly.
