Blinds & Curtains in Brisbane

Blocking heat and storm rain on the patio

Brisbane's hot summers make west-facing windows hard work for the air conditioner, so sun-blocking roller blinds or reflective curtains can cut the heat coming in. Outdoor blinds on an alfresco area keep out the sun and driving rain, but should be rated for wind; ask the installer about the fabric and how the blind is secured in a storm.

Common questions

Which blinds suit a west-facing room in Brisbane?

Sun-blocking roller blinds or external blinds work best against afternoon heat. Ask the installer about the fabric’s heat reduction and light control before you choose.

Should I measure the window myself?

Approximate measurements help with an enquiry, but custom coverings should be measured for the final order by the installer or supplier.

Can new curtains use my old track?

Sometimes. The installer needs to check the track condition, fixing and curtain weight.
