Blinds Durbanville
Made to measure. Delivered free to Durbanville. Nothing to book, nobody to wait on. Showroom brands at direct prices, and the saving covers a handyman.
Wet winters, hard summer UV and the south-easter all land on the same window in Durbanville. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings sells the answer the way you would rather buy it: prices visible, made to your measurements, delivered to the northern suburbs free.
Durbanville has no shortage of blinds companies. What it lacks is one that shows you the price before asking for your details.
“We install in homes along the Garden Route coast every week. The products we sell online to Durbanville are identical to what goes into a Thesen Island estate or a Plett beachfront villa. Same suppliers, same hardware, same care.”Duncan Kane Founder, Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings South Africa
Cape Town’s northern suburbs have franchise branches and small local operators alike, so there is no shortage of options. But the buying process is almost always the same: phone a number, book a home visit, wait for a rep, wait for a quote, then decide.
Custom Blinds South Africa removes that entire cycle. You go to the online shop, select your blind type, enter your window measurements, and the price is on screen. No form. No obligation. No rep sitting in your lounge. If you want advice, WhatsApp 076 022 8410 and our team responds directly. No appointment, no rep, no waiting on a call back.
Already got quotes from local suppliers? Check our shop pricing before you decide. The same Somfy, Hunter Douglas, and Coulisse products, made to measure, without the showroom markup.
The Western Cape climate is unique in South Africa. Wet winters with driving north-westerly rain, dry summers with intense UV and heat, and a south-easter that tests everything mounted outdoors. Indoor blinds need to manage glare on north-facing glass without trapping moisture. Every product below is available in the Custom Blinds online shop with instant pricing and free delivery to Durbanville.
Roller blinds are the most versatile option for Durbanville homes. Sheer roller blind fabrics reduce glare while preserving vineyard and Tygerberg views. Blockout fabrics suit bedrooms and media rooms. Light filtering options work well in open-plan living areas. Clean lines, minimal hardware, and available in widths up to 3 metres. See our sheer vs blockout roller blinds guide for help choosing the right fabric.
Honeycomb blinds are ideal for Durbanville’s cold, wet winters. The cellular air pockets create a thermal barrier at the window, keeping warmth inside and helping cut heating costs. In summer, they reflect heat from north-facing windows. For older Durbanville homes with single-glazed sash windows, honeycomb blinds are the most effective insulation upgrade available.
No-drill blinds are perfect for the northern suburbs rental market. From flats in Bellville and Parow to units in Brackenfell and Goodwood, tenants need window coverings they can install without damaging frames. Spring tension mount, no screws, no brackets. When the lease ends, the blinds come with you.
Aluminium venetian blinds handle Durbanville conditions well. Compare every slat material in the full venetian blinds South Africa range before you order. They resist humidity, clean easily, and offer precise control over light and privacy. Tilt the slats against the afternoon sun over the Tygerberg or close them fully for privacy in the suburbs. Available in 25mm and 50mm widths. Our venetian blinds guide covers sizing, materials, and maintenance.
Outdoor blinds are essential for Durbanville patios that face the south-easter or winter north-westerlies. Clear PVC panels keep rain out while preserving mountain views. Shadeweave fabrics at 5% openness reduce glare and heat while allowing airflow. For homes in Sonstraal Heights, Welgemoed, or Plattekloof, outdoor blinds turn a seasonal patio into a year-round living space. Shop outdoor blinds online or read our complete outdoor blinds guide.

We are an independent blinds, shutters and awnings specialist founded in 2010 on the Garden Route in Knysna. Our founder Duncan Kane has 20+ years of industry experience. The business has more than 10,000 installations behind it and a team still fitting blinds every day, across residential homes, guest houses, commercial offices, and hospitality projects from Mossel Bay to Plettenberg Bay.
On the Garden Route, our teams install daily. We manufacture awnings in our Knysna workshop and build our shutters in Cape Town to our own proven specification, and supply outdoor blinds and indoor blinds nationally through the online shop. That hands-on experience shapes everything we sell online, because we know how Garden Route weather treats blinds. Salt air, UV exposure, humidity, wind. We design for it.
For Durbanville, we supply the same products through our online shop. Same quality. Same suppliers, including Blindquip from the Hunter Douglas family. Same advice. Same Custom Fit Guarantee. The only thing that changes is delivery instead of installation.
Browse the online shop, choose your product, enter your width and drop measurements, and the price appears immediately. Select your colour, fabric opacity, and mounting type. You can also explore options like zebra and double roller blinds for rooms that need both privacy and light. Pay securely online. Your blinds are manufactured to your specifications and delivered free to your Durbanville address by The Courier Guy. Production is about 5 to 7 working days, plus courier transit.
If you need help measuring, our guides walk you through every step. If you need product advice, WhatsApp 076 022 8410 and our team will help you choose the right blind for your room, your light conditions, and your budget.
The Custom Fit Guarantee: If your blind arrives and the measurements are too wide, we trim it down for free. If it arrives too narrow, it is remade at a reduced price, and we cover the courier both ways. No risk.

No, Garden Route only. You get the same product at direct pricing, and the saving covers the fit. Indoor blinds take 15 to 30 minutes a window. Outdoor blinds suit a local handyman. WhatsApp 076 022 8410 if you want to talk it through.
Yes. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings offers free delivery on all orders to Durbanville and across South Africa. Blinds are manufactured to your measurements and shipped directly to your door by The Courier Guy. Production is about 5 to 7 working days, plus courier transit.
Aluminium venetian blinds and PVC-coated roller blinds resist moisture and humidity well. For bathrooms and kitchens, avoid real wood unless the room is well-ventilated. Roller blinds in synthetic fabrics are the most practical choice for damp Durbanville conditions. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings is the best way to buy indoor and outdoor blinds in Durbanville: your exact window size, priced live, delivered free, and specified by people who fit blinds on the Garden Route every day.
No-drill blinds are ideal for rentals. They mount using spring tension inside the window frame with no screws, no brackets, and no damage. Popular in complexes, flats, and rental units across Western Cape. When you move, the blinds come with you.
Honeycomb blinds create an insulating air pocket at the window, trapping warmth inside during the northern suburbs’ wet winter months. For older homes with single-glazed windows, they are the most cost-effective insulation upgrade available, cutting winter heat loss by up to 46% in testing published by Coulisse, in line with US Department of Energy research. See our guide to blinds and electricity savings for the full picture.
Custom Blinds sells the same brands (Somfy, Hunter Douglas, Coulisse) without showroom overheads or franchise fees. Pricing is transparent and visible in the online shop before you make contact. Price-match guarantee: found the same blind, same specification and same quality, for less from another authorised dealer? We will match it.
If your blind arrives and the width is too large, Custom Blinds trims it down at no charge. If the blind arrives too small, it is remade at a reduced price, and we cover the courier both ways. This guarantee applies to every order placed through the online shop.
Yes. Custom Blinds carries Somfy and MotionBlinds automation, the same automation systems fitted on Garden Route installations and supplied to online customers nationwide. You configure your blind in the shop, select motorisation, and the finished blind ships to Durbanville with free delivery. The specification behind every order comes from founder Duncan Kane, who has 20+ years of industry experience, and a team still fitting blinds on the Garden Route every day.
The products are identical. Somfy, MotionBlinds, Hunter Douglas and Coulisse do not make a separate range for online retailers. What changes is the margin: no showroom floor, no franchise fees, no sales consultant commission. What does not change is the expertise. Twenty years of it sits behind the measurement guides, the product descriptions, and the WhatsApp support line on 076 022 8410.
Not by us, Garden Route only. We ship them at a price that leaves room for a local handyman to fit. Send a photo and dimensions to WhatsApp 076 022 8410 and we will spec and price it.
