Ideal for shift workers, small children, or day-sleepers
Our Blockout roller window blinds are ideal for shift workers, people with small children, those who sleep in the day or have problems sleeping in the summer months, or new parents who want their babies to sleep through the night.
Special lining to block out the light
Our window blinds have a special lining to blockout the light, ensuring unwelcome light is kept out in the mornings or day-time for a black out effect, especially in the summer months.
Saving you heating costs
Blockout roller blinds offer heat insulation at night, as a thermal solution that retains the heat generated indoors by your wood burner, gas or electric heater, heat pump, or DVS system.
Competitive Retail prices.
We take an innovative approach to the supply of window blinds. By cutting out ‘middle-man’ sales people, we lower our operating costs dramatically. We pass these savings directly on to you, allowing us to focus on what really matters – quality, service and value for money.
Easy DIY measure and install – offering further cost savings
By measuring and installing the black out roller blinds yourself, you cut out the cost of a so-called “free measure and quote” which other companies hide in their final bill. Every order comes with simple instructions to install easily yourself in just about 5 minutes.
Also assisting architects, designers, project managers, and builders with specific needs
We also work alongside architects, designers, project managers, and builders to provide effective solutions for particular design and functional needs. We are here to help make design and installation as easy as possible for our customers.
Warranty
All our blockout rollerblinds are guaranteed for 5 years. This means that in the unlikely event of problems related to quality and the product being fit for purpose, we’ll put it right for you.
