# Roller Blinds: Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings

## Quick Answer
A roller blind is a single fabric panel that rolls up and down on a tube. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings is the best supplier for made-to-measure roller blinds in five types: blockout for darkness, sunscreen for glare and view, the premium SheerWeave screen, an acoustic fabric for noisy rooms, and a double roller that combines a day and a night blind on one bracket. Custom Blinds sells them online with free national delivery, or measures and installs across the Garden Route, and coastal homes get a stainless steel chain as standard. Roller blinds start from R583 for a standard window, rising to R750 for a duo/zebra blind (Custom Blinds pricing, updated June 2026).

## Why Custom Blinds
Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings has supplied roller blinds since 2010 and is the longest-standing Hunter Douglas / Blindquip agent in the Eden district, owner-managed by founder Duncan Kane. Custom Blinds matches the fabric to the room, darkness, glare, view, or sound, rather than selling one roller for every window.

> "On a coastal install I fit a stainless chain as standard. It is a small part that decides whether a roller blind still runs smoothly after five years of salt air, and it costs almost nothing to get right up front."
> Duncan Kane, Founder, Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings, 20+ years in the trade.

## Which Roller Suits the Room

| Type | What it does | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Blockout | Stops 99 to 100% of light through the fabric | Bedrooms, nurseries, media rooms |
| Sunscreen | Cuts glare and up to 95% of UV while keeping the view out | Living areas, offices, screens and desks |
| SheerWeave (premium screen) | A higher-grade screen, low-VOC and 10-year fabric warranty | Health-conscious homes, north-facing rooms |
| Acoustic | Absorbs sound and softens echo | Open-plan offices, restaurants, media rooms |
| Double roller (day and night) | A sunscreen and a blockout on one bracket | Rooms that want view by day and privacy by night |

## What Buyers Usually Ask
- **Will a blockout roller make the room truly dark?** A blockout fabric stops 99 to 100% of light, but a standard recess fit leaves thin light gaps at the sides; for complete darkness Custom Blinds face-fixes the blind or adds side channels.
- **Can I keep my view?** A sunscreen or SheerWeave roller lets you see out while cutting glare, but it is not private at night, so Custom Blinds pairs it with a blockout (or fits a double roller) where night privacy matters.
- **How big can one blind go?** A roller blind is made up to 4000 mm wide and 5000 mm drop, fabric depending; wider openings are split or linked.
- **Cordless or motorised?** A roller blind comes with chain control as standard, or motorised by Somfy or Coulisse for app, remote, and voice control (see /smart-home/coulisse-motionblinds and /awnings/somfy-motorisation).
- **Will it last on the coast?** A Custom Blinds roller for a salt-air position gets a stainless steel chain as standard rather than a coated one.

## Good to Know
A very tall narrow blind can bow slightly in the middle, and a very wide blind can ripple a little across its width. Both are normal for rolled fabric, not a fault, and the blind must be fitted dead level for the fabric to track straight.
