Types of Blinds
We offer roman blinds that are custom-made according to your fabric choice. These are mounted on a headrail system to eliminate those old strings that get tangled and twisted. We also provide wooden vertical and roller blinds.
We install our made-to-measure blinds across Namibia to ensure the perfect fit and function.
Types of Shutters
Wooden and aluminium shutters are made to measure to fit any space, specifically unique shapes that do not fit ‘standard’ specifications.
Shutters are available in a variation of colours and louver sizes to fit your design and space.
The Al shutter provides peace of mind and adds value to your home.
We are both an accredited Custom Lifestyle and Blockhouse shutter installer and will guide you through the entire shutter decision, ordering and installation process.
FAQs
How do you know when to choose a blind rather than a curtain?
Smaller rooms and windows are better suited to custom-made blinds. Blinds are fixed in the reveal, which utilizes less space.
Furniture placement can also determine whether to rather make use of blinds. For example, should you have a sofa or desk that causes obstruction, blinds are a good option.
What type of blinds should I get?
If you prefer blinds that have a soft finish with a colourful fabric, roman blinds will certainly be your choice. Should you prefer uniform colours and slats, wooden blinds are your go-to.
TOP TIP: If you live in very dusty and sandy environments, wooden blinds might be the better option.
How long do made-to-measure blinds take to make?
Once fabric has arrived, 5-10 working days depending on current work schedule.
How to clean blinds?
Certain fabric blinds can be washed, but all hardware needs to be removed.
Wooden blinds can be cleaned by wiping them simply with a wet cloth.
