How Do Roller Blinds work?
Roller blinds are one long piece of fabric that rolls around an aluminium tube at the top of the window. Controlled with a simple chain– pull one way to raise and the other to lower – you can easily adjust to any level to control the light.

There is a brief description of the various types of roller blinds listed below, but if you are unsure of any details please feel free to contact us.

Blackout or Blockout  Roller Blinds

This term is used to describe roller blinds that do not allow light to pass through. When the blind is rolled down no light will pass through the fabric and will give you privacy day and night.

Thermal Roller Blinds

Thermal roller blinds are a blackout roller blind with a thermal backing. This type of roller blind has excellent insulation properties. Thermal roller blinds usually cost a little more than ordinary blackout blinds but they can save you on your heating bills during the colder months.
