Roller Blinds

From tiny bathroom windows to wide patio doors, roller blinds are one of our most versatile options.

Learn more about roller blinds and fabric options or see how they work in practice in our guides to blinds for small windows and energy-efficient window coverings.

Roman Blinds

Roman blinds are ideal for living rooms and bedrooms where you want warmth, texture and a tailored finish. They look especially great in period properties and on bay windows. They can also be relatively effective insulators.

Shaped Blinds and Shutters

Angled, arched and gable windows don’t have to stay bare. We use shaped shutters, SHY specialist rollers and Duette® blinds to follow every curve and angle neatly.

Shutters on Bay Windows

Bay windows are a perfect match for shutters. You get privacy and draught-busting insulation while keeping that beautiful curve. See more about S:Craft shutters in Solihull or read about why they’re so effective in our guide to staying warm with shutters.

Shutters

Full-height, café-style and tier-on-tier shutters are popular across Solihull, Shirley and Coventry, especially in street-facing rooms where you want privacy without losing daylight. They also work well on small windows.

Skylight (Velux) Blinds

Roof windows and Velux® skylights can flood a room with light, but they can also cause your rooms to overheat. Our made-to-measure skylight and lantern blinds give you blackout for bedrooms or soft filtered light in kitchens and living areas.

Twist Roller Blinds

Twist, Duo or ‘day and night’ roller blinds use two layers of striped fabric to switch between privacy and daylight without fully raising the blind. They’re a stylish choice for front-facing living rooms and open-plan spaces. Read more about our Duo blinds or explore modern Umbra shading options.

Venetians on Bay Window

Venetian blinds are a great match for bay windows. They follow the angles neatly, give precise control over light and privacy, and stack up compactly when you want them out of sight. As a cost-effective option, Venetians can be made to fit most bay window shapes.

Venetian Blinds

Venetian blinds are one of the most versatile options we offer. They’re available in aluminium, faux wood and real wood, with different slat widths to suit everything from compact bathrooms to large picture windows. The tilting slats let you fine-tune privacy and daylight, while the blinds stack neatly at the top of the window to allow uninterrupted views of the outdoors.

Vertical Blinds

Vertical blinds are a classic solution for larger windows, bays and patio doors. The rotating fabric louvres make it easy to soften glare on sunny days, maintain privacy or slide everything back for a clear view out. They’re a practical choice for living rooms, home offices and conservatories where you want flexible light control without heavy curtains.

Zip Blinds

Zip roller blinds use a clever zip-edge system that locks the fabric into slim side channels. This keeps the cloth under tension, prevents light leakage at the edges and stops it from blowing out of the guides in windy conditions. They’re ideal for very large openings, garden rooms and rooflights where standard roller blinds would struggle. Find out more about our specialist zip and roller systems.
