Standard Lining: Made of plain cotton or polycotton standard lining will let light into a room whilst giving weight to the curtains to make them sit nicely.

Thermal Lining: Thermal lining has a tighter weave or a coating compared to standard lining which can keep a room warmer in winter or cooler in summer when closed. It will block some light compared to standard lining but will not darken the room. These are a great option for public rooms than need help with temperature control.

Blockout Lining:Blockout lining is similar to thermal lining. It is a midway between standard and thermal lining. It provides some thermal qualities and will slightly darken a room. These are also known to help reduce noise so can be a good option for those who live by a busy walkway or road.

Blackout Lining: Blackout lining will block all light coming through the fabric. As it has a tighter weave than thermal lining and blockout it will also do the same as these lining options. Blackout curtains are the perfect choice for bedrooms.

All of our curtain sizes are shown as width x drop. You can see the sizes in both inches and centimetres in the item description.

Ultimately it is a personal choice.

Roller blinds offer a minimalist look that is easy to install and affordable. Many of our roller blinds can also be cut to size giving you the perfect fit.

Roman Blinds offer simplicity and elegance and are often more luxurious than roller blinds as they are fully lined and work well with heavier fabrics.

You can select from ready made blinds which are extremely cost effective or we offer a wide range of made to measure blinds which gives you the ease of customisation. Allowing you to choose your sizes, fabric, and lining choices.

All of our blinds come with the necessary fixings and easy to follow instructions for installation.

The fittings allow you to either face fix to a wall or top fix to a window frame or ceiling.

Blinds can help regulate the amount of light and privacy in a room, as well as provide insulation from heat and cold. They also come in a variety of styles and materials, making them a versatile design element.
