Frequently Asked Questions

Each product has a different lead-time however we try and coordinate all products in to one convenient delivery. Your consultant will be able to advise you of the lead-times for each product. Remember to have any existing window coverings down prior to the installation of your new blinds (unless alternative arrangements have been made). In most cases you are looking at 4-6 weeks for blinds and between 6-10 weeks for our shutters.  

Everything is made to measure to the millimetre so it is difficult to give you a “square metre rate” for our shutters or blinds or “per window rate”. The main determinants of price are of course the type of window covering, fabric or textile finishes and materials/components needed. Our consultant can give you an exact costing in your home.  Your in-home consultations are free. 

Absolutely.  In most cases window furnishings are the last on the list when building your new home. Send us through your house plans and we will get back to you with a rough estimate. Not only will you  have an idea of what your up for but we can also arrange to have them installed ready for move-in day. 

Living in an area with high noise pollution can be an extremely frustrating part of your everyday life. The sound of cars going by and pedestrian conversation should stay outside of your home.

You don’t need to pack up your things and sell your house to combat noise pollution. In fact, there is a much simpler solution that provides plenty of other benefits!

Plantation shutters are proven to reduce noise in your home, as well as provide a stylish solution for privacy, security, light and ventilation. 

Most people choose blinds or curtains as their window covering, but if you’re struggling with noise control, fabrics won’t do nearly as much as solid, fitted window shutters. Heavy curtains will only muffle the external noise, while plantation shutters will prevent noise from entering the room at all.

Shutters are installed to fit into the recess of the window, meaning there are no gaps for noise to emanate. Many people choose wood or vinyl shutters, but aluminium shutters provide the same aesthetic appeal and practical function, as well as a better barrier against noise.

One of the main benefits to  shutters is that they are made of moveable slats. These slats allow you to control the amount of light, air and sound that enters your room. You are not limited to keeping them completely closed, but rather, you can open and close the slats at varying degrees to suit your needs. 

There is no such thing. Windows come in a huge range of sizes. We must have accurate measurements before we can provide you with a quote. 

We require 50% deposit to initiate an order. The balance is due prior to installation. We accept bank deposit as well as bank cheque and cash. If there are any alterations to the order these will need to be clarified prior to placing the order as it may affect the price. Finance is available requiring a small deposit.  

Custom made products are higher in quality and made to individual measurements and colour selection, whereas ready made furnishings are made in specific sizes. For this reason, ready made alternatives may not fit your window accurately, and also generally come with a limited choice of colours.  

Windows come in all shapes and sizes. We’ll be happy to explain all of the options and recommend the best solution for you during your free consultation.
