Indoor Blinds Plettenberg Bay

What indoor blinds are available for Plettenberg Bay homes?

Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings supplies roller blinds, honeycomb blinds, venetian blinds, bamboo blinds and vertical blinds for Plettenberg Bay properties. Plett’s north-facing coastal orientation produces intense morning and afternoon light that varies by room position, window size and time of year. Holiday homes and rental properties require blinds that resist UV fading and humidity without maintenance between visits. Blind type, fabric weight, opacity level and operating mechanism depend on window dimensions, room function and mounting surface condition. Incorrect fabric specification for Plett’s UV intensity results in colour fading and material degradation within a single summer season requiring professional window assessment before selection.

Light does something particular in Plett. The north-facing aspect fills rooms from early morning, and by midday the sun finds angles that deeper inland towns never see. A bedroom in Whale Rock wakes in full glare. A Goose Valley living room holds warmth long into the evening. The right blinds work with that light rather than blocking it out entirely.

Duncan measures every window individually. Frame depth, reveal condition, glass type, room function and your preference for light versus privacy all factor into the recommendation. There is no single blind that suits every Plett home, which is why we never quote without seeing the property first.

Roller Blinds

Roller blinds are the most versatile indoor option. A single fabric panel rolls around an aluminium tube at the top of the window, operating by chain drive, spring assist or Somfy motorisation. Fabric choice determines what the blind actually does: blockout for bedrooms, sheer for filtered light and views, or sunscreen mesh that cuts UV while keeping the landscape visible.

Plett homes benefit from dual roller systems. A sheer roller for daytime filters the harsh north light while preserving sea or mountain views. A blockout roller behind it drops for sleeping or afternoon nap time. Both sit in a single headbox, clean against the ceiling line. Fabric widths up to 3 metres cover large sliding doors without a centre join. View the full roller blind range.

Honeycomb Blinds

Honeycomb blinds trap air in cellular pockets that insulate against heat in summer and cold in winter. The Hunter Douglas Duette range we supply uses a double-cell construction that significantly reduces energy transfer through glass. In Plett, where large windows are part of the architectural character, honeycomb blinds let you keep those windows without paying the energy penalty.

Available in sheer, translucent and blockout opacities. Top-down bottom-up operation opens the blind from either end, letting you admit light from the top while retaining privacy below. Ideal for Plett bedrooms and bathrooms where the view matters as much as the privacy. Fabrics are UV-stabilised for the coastal light intensity. Explore honeycomb blind options.

Venetian Blinds

Venetian blinds use horizontal slats that tilt to control light angle and airflow. Aluminium venetians are moisture-resistant and low-maintenance, suited to Plett kitchens and bathrooms where humidity is a factor. Synthetic wood venetians replicate the look of timber without warping in coastal conditions. Natural bamboo venetians bring texture and warmth to living spaces.

Slat widths from 25mm to 50mm suit different window proportions. Wider slats create a more contemporary look and are easier to clean. Colour matching is available across hundreds of shades. For Plett properties, we recommend synthetic or aluminium over natural timber for rooms exposed to direct sunlight or salt air. View aluminium venetians or synthetic venetians.

Vertical Blinds & Specialist Options

Vertical blinds suit wide sliding doors and floor-to-ceiling windows common in Plett’s open-plan homes. Fabric louvres rotate for light control and stack neatly to one side for unobstructed access. Sheer vertical fabric filters light while maintaining the view line.

Additional options include bamboo blinds for natural texture, panel glides for wide openings, and no-drill blinds for rental properties or homes where wall drilling is not preferred. Every option is measured and specified for the individual window. Browse the full indoor range.
