03Which blinds handle Pretoria East’s glare, dust, and summer storms best?
Aluminium venetian blinds and UV-stable roller fabrics handle Highveld glare and dust 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 Pretoria East homes.

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 Gauteng. When you move, the blinds come with you.
05How do honeycomb blinds help with Pretoria East’s cold winters?
Honeycomb blinds create an insulating air pocket at the window, trapping warmth inside during Pretoria’s cold, bright 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.

07What does the Custom Fit Guarantee cover?
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.
