“When I started in this trade, getting a price for a made-to-measure outdoor blind meant a site visit, a follow-up call, and a week’s wait. The technology now means you get the price in seconds.”

What moves the price of outdoor blinds

Width and drop are the two drivers. Two things add to them.

Width and drop
More fabric and a heavier headrail, so the price scales with area
Motorisation
Remote operation on any size. Adds to the unit price, removes the manual gear
Number of panels
Each opening is its own blind, priced to its own width and drop
Fabric
Screen mesh ships nationally; clear PVC and canvas are priced on your dimensions

MeasuringWidth at the widest point, drop from the mounting point to the lowest point you want covered, both in millimetres. Outside mount is standard.

Prices are the pricing engine’s figures at the time of writing, VAT included. The shop shows today’s price for your exact size.

03

Which outdoor blind fabrics ship nationally

Screen mesh is right for most South African patios. Two others enclose the space fully.

Questions buyers ask about affordable outdoor blinds

What is the best affordable outdoor blind in South Africa?

A made-to-measure screen mesh outdoor blind from the Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings online shop: the same specification supplied to lodges and guesthouses, priced live on your sizes, delivered free and fitted without a professional. From R6,484 for a 1500mm by 2000mm panel.

How much do outdoor blinds cost in South Africa?

From R6,484 for a 1500mm by 2000mm single panel, including VAT and free delivery. A 2000mm by 2500mm blind is R7,529 and a 3000mm by 2500mm panel R11,990. Prices scale with width and drop and are calculated live at shop.customblinds.co.za.

Can I get a custom outdoor blind delivered to Johannesburg or Cape Town?

Yes. The online range ships free to every South African address via The Courier Guy. Production is about 5 to 7 working days from order confirmation, plus transit, with tracking sent on dispatch.

What is the difference between screen mesh and clear PVC outdoor blinds?

Screen mesh filters sun, cuts glare and wind, and keeps a view through the blind; it self-installs. Clear PVC fully encloses the space while keeping the outlook open, and is priced on your dimensions. Both ship nationwide.

How do I measure my patio for an outdoor blind?

Width of the opening at its widest point, and drop from the mounting point to the lowest point you want covered, both in millimetres. Outside mount is standard. Melvin in the shop chat will walk you through it.

What happens if my outdoor blind does not fit?

The Custom Fit Guarantee covers every online order. If the blind arrives too big because of the measurements supplied, Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings cuts it down free and sends it back. If too small, it is remade at a reduced price.

Are motorised outdoor blinds available online?

Yes, on every size in the online range, operated by remote. Configure it in the shop or ask Melvin for a motorised price on your dimensions.
