Custom Blinds Miranda, Measured and Installed at Home
Roller Blinds, Shutters, Curtains and Awnings, Fitted Locally
Over 25 years of blinds fitted across Miranda
We fit blinds right across Miranda, from the older brick veneer homes off Kiora Road through to the newer duplexes going up around the Kingsway. Our roller blinds are made in our own factory here in Sydney, 100 per cent Australian made, cut to the opening we measured at your place.
We also do Roman blinds, verticals, timber and aluminium venetians, plantation shutters, motorised roller shutters, sheer and blockout curtains in S-fold or pinch pleat, and folding arm awnings. Steve has been in window coverings over 25 years. He brings the fabric books so you can hold a sample against your own glass. Free measure and quote.
Miranda is mostly brick veneer from the sixties and seventies, and that means deep window reveals. That is good news. A roller blind fitted inside the reveal on a 90mm brick return sits neat, blocks side light properly and keeps the fabric off the glass. Where a place has been rendered, or a new duplex has gone up, reveals are shallower and we face fix instead.
Renovation is the other constant. People take out the back wall, put in a three or four panel slider, and finish up with a span a standard blind will not handle. A single roller over four metres needs a heavier tube and a centre support, or you split it into two blinds on one fascia so the join lines up with a door stile. West facing glass near the Kingsway and Port Hacking Road cops the full afternoon sun, and a sunscreen behind a sheer beats one blockout doing all the work.
Most blind companies are wholesale retailers. They buy their blinds in, put a margin on top, and you get what the wholesaler stocked that month. Our roller blinds are made in our own factory, so we choose the tube diameter, the bracket and the fabric roll for your window. That matters in a Miranda family room where the opening is four metres wide and a light tube would bow.
It also means less waiting around. If a reveal turns out to be 8mm out of square, or a fascia needs cutting to clear a bulkhead, that gets handled here. The person who measured your windows can walk in and talk to the person building the blind. No third party in the middle, and no guessing about where your order is up to.
There is no Clearview shop in Miranda, and we would rather come to you than have you cart a fabric book home. Colour reads one way in a north facing kitchen and another way under a fluorescent tube, and the only honest way to pick a sunscreen openness is to hold it against the window you are covering. We bring the samples to your place, measure every opening, and leave you a written quote on the spot.
From Miranda we are close to most of the Shire. We work through Gymea, Gymea Bay, Kirrawee, Sutherland and Caringbah, down to Yowie Bay, Sylvania and Sylvania Waters, and across to Kareela, Jannali, Como and Taren Point. Whole houses, single rooms, unit balconies and second storey additions, all of it. If your place is mid build we are happy to measure off the frames once the windows are in and come back to install after the painters have finished. Plenty of Miranda jobs are staged that way, living areas first and bedrooms later, and that suits us fine. If you are doing the lot in one go, we will work out an order that keeps it to a single install visit. Call 02 9588 3604 and pick a time, mornings, afternoons or after work.

Common questions
Do you charge to come out and measure in Miranda?
No, the measure and quote are free. We come to the house with the fabric books, measure every window and talk through what suits each room. Miranda is a short trip, so we can usually get there within a couple of days. The quote comes back in writing, room by room, so you can see each window on its own.
Our brick veneer windows have deep reveals. Is that good or bad for blinds?
Good. A deep reveal gives us room to fit inside the opening, so the blind sits behind the brickwork and the architrave stays clean. Deep reveals also take a double blind, a sunscreen behind a blockout, or a cassette to hide the roll. The catch is the reveal shading the fabric, which makes colours read darker than the sample.
We opened up the back wall in our renovation. One blind or two?
Past about three metres we usually split it. A single blind that wide needs a big tube to stop it sagging, it gets heavy on a chain, and a long roll wants to telescope sideways if the tube is undersized. Two or three blinds on one fascia read as one from inside. You can also leave the hot end down.
Our living room faces west near the Kingsway and cooks all afternoon. What helps?
West glass takes low sun straight on for hours, so the fabric has to cut heat and kill glare without blacking the room out at four in the afternoon. A low openness sunscreen in a dark colour holds the view and drops the glare a long way. Outside the glass, an awning or an outdoor blind does far more on heat.
We are mid renovation. Can we do the blinds in stages?
Yes, and most renovations here run that way. Living areas and the rooms you sit in go first, bedrooms and the study follow once the trades are out. We measure off the finished window, never the plan, because a new frame rarely lands exactly where the drawing says. Call us once the windows and architraves are in.
