Interior · Made to measure

The simplest fix for a room that gets too much afternoon light.

Roller blinds are the workhorse of the range — one fabric panel, made exactly to your window, doing exactly the job you need it to. No frills, no fuss, and honestly the right answer for most rooms in the house.

The fabric decision

Built for the room, not just the window

A roller blind is really a fabric decision dressed up as a hardware decision. Blockout fabric gives total light stop — the right call for bedrooms, nurseries and any room facing the ridge's harder afternoon sun. Sunscreen fabric, usually rated at 3–5% openness for view-preserving control, cuts glare and UV while keeping the garden visible through the trees; just remember it works both ways, so a bedroom sunscreen becomes a lit window at night unless it's paired with something else.

Where a room needs both — a main bedroom with a garden view that also needs to go properly dark — a double roller pairs blockout and sunscreen on one bracket, so you switch between the two without two separate blinds cluttering the frame.

Sunscreen

Mesh weave that cuts glare and UV while keeping the view through the canopy — daytime privacy, reversed at night.

A valance hides the tube entirely, with the fascia colour-matched to your frames for a cleaner finish.

Worth knowing

Rollers aren't always the right call. Very wide unbroken spans need a join line partway across, and on a real heritage cottage window, a timber venetian usually respects the original proportions better than a roller ever will — we'll say so on the measure, not after you've paid for the wrong one.

Chain vs motor

Chain control needs a wall tensioner as standard for child safety. Spring-assist and motorised options are both available — motorised is the gold standard for nurseries and hard-to-reach windows, with no cord or chain to reach for at all.

Where we fit them

Roller blinds across the ridge

The same blockout-or-sunscreen decision comes up in every heritage-ridge home we visit — from Saxonwold's big picture windows to Houghton Estate's formal rooms, Westcliff's new glazed extensions and Parktown North's busy family living rooms.
