Custom Roller Blinds Willmott – Free Installation

No, and doing every window in one fabric is usually the lazier answer rather than the better one. What has to agree is anything you can see at the same time, so a great room and the kitchen off it want to match, while the bedrooms upstairs can go their own way. The hardware is the part we keep consistent through the house, since a white cassette on one window and a bronze one on the next is what actually looks unplanned from the hall.

Less than it does in daylight, and that catches people out. A light filtering weave glows once your lamp is on, so shapes and movement read from across the lot line even though nobody can make out detail. A solar screen is worse again, since the open weave goes close to transparent from outside at night. For a bedroom on a narrow lot, blackout or a dense room darkening fabric is the one that works both ways.

Yes, one per pane, with the brackets set so the blinds stop clear of each other at the corners. Trying to sweep a single blind across a bay does not work, because the glass changes plane and the fabric can only hang flat. Three separate rollers raised to the same height read as one treatment from inside the room. The detail that matters is the corner gap, which we keep even on both sides so it looks intended rather than tight on one side.

We remake it. Every blind is cut to the millimetre from our own measure, so if something does not fit the opening it is our error and our cost, and the room goes back on the schedule. It is rare, and it is almost always a measurement taken around something that later moved, like a screen or a crank. Nothing gets forced into an opening it was not cut for.
