Window Blinds For Every Reason And Season
Home is where the heart is as they say. And you want your home to be a little slice of paradise you can just melt into after a hard day.
Isn’t it the absolute worst when you’re happily settling in for a weekend Netflix marathon complete with snacks, only to have them get all soggy and cold because you’re busy fixing that screen glare?
Or maybe you’re just over having to crank up that air-con every time the weather decides to flip. If you didn’t know any better, you’d think your home was bi-polar.
Did you know that over 30% of the air lost in a home – both in Winter and Summer – escapes through your windows?
Glass windows are poor insulators, and without a proper window furnishing, you could be paying 30% more on your energy bills than you need to.
So what gives?
The right window blinds can make a world of a difference. Banish those pesky insulation and glare issues with a simple solution once and for all, exclusively set up for your unique needs.

Automating Your Window Blinds
Modern, 21st-century humans are creatures of convenience and comfort. There’s very little we do now that doesn’t involve some form of technology. Naturally, this includes how you operate your window blinds.
In this world of smart homes and smart phones, there’s not much smart humans can’t achieve. So if you’re tired of constantly having to raise and lower your blinds manually several hundred times a day, automating them could be your saving grace.
Your window blinds can either be chain-operated or motorised. Both are 100% child safe, as our blinds are always designed with child safety in mind.
We offer an innovative range of motorised blind options that can be connected to your smart home and be controlled by your voice or mobile phone.
FEATURES
- Shades will raise or lower based on location for precise and automatic shade control
- Additional scenes and timers to establish custom schedules and set timers
- Voice-activated shade control
- Sophisticated shade control straight from any iOS or Android smartphone or tablet
- Group shades by room or scene
One, convenient control system. So many options.
Our Extensive Range Of Window Blinds
Roller Blinds and Shutters
- Single roller blinds: Choose blockout for the perfect sleep or light filter for ultimate light control. Enjoy enhanced insulation, privacy and motorised convenience.
- Double-roller blinds: Bringing you the best of both worlds. Two different blinds systems running on the same bracket lets you shut the world out when you want to with the blockout, or raise it and leave the sunscreen down for light. Win-win.
- Plantation Shutters: For modern, timeless and functional design it’s got to be the ‘champagne of window furnishings’, Plantation Shutters. Water, moisture and UV resistant, they’re strong and durable and available in a range of finishes. Their protective coating also prevents fading and cracking.
Panels and Slats
- Panel Glides: Perfect option for larger windows/ doors, sliding/ bi-fold doors, or even as stylish room dividers. Panels move freely and individually, and they’re also quick and cheap to replace if damaged. Flat fabric panels are lightweight and easy to operate.
- Roman Blinds: A contemporary solution inspired by Rome with a clean, flawless look that’s perfect for areas with no space for curtains. The soft fabric panels offer a simple, streamlined operating system and are ideal for softening the atmosphere of the room.

Honeycombs, Verticals and Veri Shades
- Honeycombs: The star of the show. Exceptional temperature regulation and superior design have been proven to reduce your energy bills by at least 30%. They offer light gaps as low as 2.5mm vs. 10-15mm avg. with other market products, and dull outside noise by up to 55%.

We have an extensive and exclusive range of blind fabrics in luxurious textures and patterns, all of which are designed against the rigours of Australia’s harsh weather conditions.
Whether it’s an elegantly textured screen/ blockout fabric for the bedroom, moisture resistant print for bathrooms, dinosaur prints for the kids’ room or pastel fruit prints for your kitchen, they’re customisable to suit your aesthetics. Plus, you can adapt them to blend with your existing décor.
Insulation Options
Did you know that 60% of the cold you’re feeling in your home right now is from cold air seeping in through your windows?

They keep the cold air out in Winter and the hot air at bay during Summer too, so your home stays nice and cosy year-round.
