Roller Blinds
As all of our Roller Blinds are custom made, the price completely depends on the size of the window you are looking to cover as well as the overall quantity that’s required. Roller Blinds are priced up based off an overall Width X Height measurement, or often referred to as Width X Drop. The best way to get an accurate price is to take advantage of free measure and quotes or by simply sending in your measurements for a quote based off those.
Roller Blinds are the most common window furnishing on the market. Being a staple offering from builders as well as the general go-to for home owners they are found in almost every home you walk in to. Roller Blinds are constantly being updated with new trendy fabrics and components to keep them up-to-date with today’s styles. You might remember the old ‘holland blinds’ in mums house that you’d need to pull down with your hand before the springs would fight you and the blind would roll back up at the top, well lets just say they’ve come along way since then.
This completely depends on the fabric you select to have on your new Roller Blinds. There is a huge range of Roller Blinds fabrics that completely blockout sunlight, though there are also fabrics that only blockout most light, or very little light. Whether or not you place your Roller Blind on the architrave or inside the window frame will also determine how dark a room gets during the day. Note that regardless of where you request to have your Roller Blinds installed, there may always be some light ‘bleeding’ through the sides and top of the products, though there should be absolutely no light come through the fabric itself if you opt for a 100% blockout fabric.
Recess Fit Roller Blind refers to the location of where the Roller Blinds are installed. Let’s say you have a standard window, with a nice architrave around the glass that makes up your window frame. A “Recess Fit Roller Blind” would be installed inside this frame, with the roller blinds basically hanging from the roof of the frame dropping down. This can create a “cleaner” look, and also allows for more light to get in when the blind is all the way down.
Yes absolutely, our Roller Blinds warranty are broken up in to 2 different sections. Our fabrics all come with 5 years warranty whereas the metal components have 12 months warranty. The components being the chains, drives, bottom rails and tubes. Our plastic chains also come with 6 months warranty.
S-Fold Curtains

They can be, this depends on the fabric you select. The basic sheer fabrics are quite light, and unless you are doing a full 5 meter span they are quite light and easy to handle. The blockout fabrics can get quite heavy though once again it depends on the specific fabric chosen.
If the curtains have been manufactured correctly with the right length track and the right number of clips installing them can be quite easy. Brackets are normally spaced out every 600mm of width so the amount needed would depend on the overall size. Once the brackets have been installed at your required installation point the track can then be clipped on (yes it’s as simple as that!). Once your brackets and tracks have been put up the S-Fold Curtain itself just needs to patiently be clipped on clip by clip. As long as you don’t miss one, it should all be over within minutes.
S-Fold Curtains can be motorised and also set up with your other smart devices like Siri, Alexa and google, though a smart hub would be required. We use Alpha Motors for our automation needs.

Plantation Shutters

This all depends on the person and your ability to work with hand tools. Installation of Plantation Shutters requires some basic tools like a level, packers, electric drill and in some cases gap filler depending on your plantation shutter set-up.

Yes, all products that we offer have a warranty period though it does differ from product to product as well as the materials and manufacturer’s that you have chosen. Our important products tend to have a longer warranty life than our Australian based products.
Venetian Blinds
As with all the other custom-made products, this depends on the overall size that you need for that specific product as well as the material chosen. Pricing is generally worked off a Width X Height basis, and most of the time discounts are applied when several products are ordered at the one time. Venetians start from around $150.
Aluminium Venetians are water resistant, which is why we mainly use them for wet areas such as bathrooms, toilets, laundries and kitchens. Though we do not recommend putting Timber venetians in wet areas to avoid getting them wet as it may ruin the material over time.
JNL Blinds provide child-safe Venetian blind control options. Motorised manual controls are fitted with cord safety devices to remove the risk of accidental entanglement.
If you have custom-made wooden venetian blinds, then you should know that they can be cleaned in a few easy steps. All you need to do is vacuum the slats with your vacuum’s brush attachment.
If you have white wooden venetians or faux wooden blinds and need to remove stains, you can just use a damp cloth.
For best results, use products that are exclusively designed for the product you’re cleaning. For example, if you’re cleaning lacquered timber blinds, use a beeswax-based cleaner.
