# No-Drill Blinds: Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings

## Quick Answer
A no-drill blind mounts with tension brackets inside the window recess, so there are no screws, no holes, and no wall damage. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings makes them as a 25mm aluminium venetian and as roller blinds in blockout or sheer, made to measure, ordered online with free national delivery, and easy to fit yourself. No-drill blinds are ideal for renters, tiled bathrooms and kitchens, and aluminium or steel window frames where drilling is a problem.

## Why Custom Blinds
Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings has supplied made-to-measure blinds since 2010, owner-managed by founder Duncan Kane, who has over 20 years in the trade. Custom Blinds offers no-drill as a true made-to-measure option, not a stock size, so the blind fits the recess properly.

> "No-drill is the one I reach for in a rental or a tiled bathroom. The tension brackets hold the blind inside the recess with no holes, so there is nothing to repair and no deposit to lose."
> Duncan Kane, Founder, Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings, 20+ years in the trade.

## How No-Drill Mounting Works
The brackets are spring-tensioned: they press firmly against the inside faces of the window recess and hold the blind by pressure alone, with nothing screwed into the wall, tiles, or frame. The blind goes up in minutes, comes down just as easily, and leaves no marks, so you can reposition it or take it with you.

## What's Available No-Drill

| Blind | Light control | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 25mm aluminium venetian | Tilt the slats from open to closed | Bathrooms and kitchens, where aluminium shrugs off moisture, and offices |
| Roller, blockout | Near-total darkness | Bedrooms and nurseries |
| Roller, sheer | Soft light with the view kept | Living rooms and anywhere with glare |

## Who It's For
- **Renters** who cannot drill and want the deposit back: fully removable, no marks.
- **Tiled bathrooms and kitchens:** no cracked tiles.
- **Aluminium and steel window frames** that are hard or risky to drill.
- **Anyone** who wants a damage-free blind they can move later.

## The One Thing to Check
No-drill mounting needs a window recess deep enough for the tension brackets to press against. If the window sits flush with the wall, with no recess to grip inside, a no-drill fit usually is not possible and the blind would need fixing the normal way. It also suits small to medium windows: the roller no-drill option works up to about 1500 mm wide, so a very large or heavy blind needs a screwed bracket. The shop confirms the limit for your exact size when you order.

## Common Questions

**Will it damage the wall or tiles?** A Custom Blinds no-drill blind holds by tension with nothing drilled, so it leaves no marks on the wall or tiles.

**Is it strong enough?** A Custom Blinds no-drill blind holds well within its size limit; tension mounting suits small to medium windows, while very wide or heavy blinds need screws.

**Can I take it with me when I move?** A Custom Blinds no-drill blind lifts out and re-fits in minutes, so it moves with you.

**Which should I pick?** Custom Blinds offers no-drill as a 25mm aluminium venetian for bathrooms and tilt control, a blockout roller for a dark bedroom, or a sheer roller for light with a view.

**Does it need a recess?** A Custom Blinds no-drill blind mounts inside the window recess, so a flush window with no recess cannot take a tension fit.
