Custom Blinds shipping, returns and privacy

Courier delivery is free anywhere in South Africa. Remote areas are delivered to the nearest PostNet or courier depot.

Dispatch

You are advised by SMS, WhatsApp or email when your order leaves, with the waybill tracking number

Address

Check that your delivery address and contact details are correct at checkout, and that the address is occupied during office hours. Tell the team immediately if anything changes

Timing

Production takes about 5 to 7 working days, plus courier transit. Transit depends on region and on the size and weight of the parcel

Proof of delivery

Reputable couriers are used and proof of delivery is kept

Every blind is made to the measurements you enter on the online shop.

Inside mount

Send the exact opening size. The factory takes 10mm off the width so the blind runs freely; you deduct nothing

Face fix

Add your overlap, 100mm on every side is recommended, and send the totals exactly. No deductions are made

Colour

Fabric and finish colours can differ slightly from a screen. Wood and bamboo are natural products and shades vary between batches

Out of stock

If a fabric or colour is unavailable, the office contacts you within 24 hours to choose an alternative, or you may cancel for a full refund
