Selection and diagnosis

Start with the light-control job the blind needs to do

Roller blind fabric and fit should be selected together. A compact blind can still leave unwanted gaps if the recess, handles and coverage are not considered.

Sunscreen fabric

Filters glare and can retain some outward view during daylight.

Check: Check privacy expectations after dark and the direction of direct sun.

Translucent fabric

Diffuses daylight while obscuring a clearer view through the window.

Check: Check the balance between brightness and privacy for the room.

Blockout fabric

Provides stronger light and privacy control than open-weave fabrics.

Check: Check face-fit versus recess-fit coverage and expected edge gaps.

Window details that affect roller blind fit

  • Recess depth and window handles
  • Face-fit or recess-fit preference
  • Control side and child-safety positioning
  • Width, drop and expected edge coverage

What shapes the written quote

  • Window width, drop and quantity

Should roller blinds sit inside or outside the recess?+

The recess depth, handles, gaps and the desired coverage all affect the suitable fit.

What is the difference between sunscreen and blockout fabric?+

Can roller blinds be made for wide windows?+
