Blackout Roller Blinds
Blackout blinds are definitely the most popular choice when it comes to dressing a bedroom window. They are one of the easiest blinds to install, are budget friendly and are available in so many colour and pattern varieties, that finding a blackout roller blind to match your interior has never been easier.
Blackout blinds are made from light blocking materials that provide extra privacy and light control, as well as a peaceful night’s sleep.They are also amazing at reducing noise as the thick lining helps to block out any external sounds, which is ideal for those that live in noisy neighbourhoods or on main roads where traffic can sometimes be a regular early wake up call. You can install the blinds inside your window recess to help reduce any natural light bleeding in from around the fabric, so that your room is completely ‘blacked out’ to ensure a full night's sleep without disturbance.
These blinds can also help you save on your electricity bills, as they are a super sufficient and sustainable option for your home. The thick material offers a thermal coating for your window, meaning that blackout blinds are actually energy efficient as they help keep heat locked in, perfect for cooler climates, or those who just love a cosier room for a restful night's sleep. Blackout blinds will definitely help you fall asleep, and stay asleep.
You can also get made to measure blackout roller blinds making the installation process seamless. We also now offer motorised blackout blinds which are perfect for children's rooms, as they are cordless meaning they are child friendly, putting your mind at ease so your little ones can play safely in your own home.

Roman Blinds
Roman blinds offer a luxurious feel to your bedroom, as they feature a heavy duty, lined material, that folds softly in on itself for a sleek and elegant look.When fully opened, the soft fabric creates a stylish pelmet at the top of the window, and the material is flexible so that it can easily be adapted to fully open or draw shut, by simply winding the cord up or down.This is why they can be such a great choice for bedrooms, as they can be closed fully to block out all light and ensure maximum privacy, opened partially to let in some light or opened fully, the choice and control is yours.
Our range of Roman blinds offer blackout, and light-filtering features too, which aids in a peaceful night’s sleep. Also, because these blinds are made from such thick, quality material, they offer a layer of insulation, which helps lock in heat in your room. Roman blinds are sleek and sophisticated, and unlike some blind options, these blinds are still visible even when the blind is fully open, showing the detail and design of your chosen fabric to add to your home style.
