Llandudno · Cape Town
Made-to-measure blinds, roller shutters and motorised shading for a valley with no streetlights, a hard westerly sun and salt straight off the swell — measured in your home, quoted in writing.
No two elevations here take the weather the same way — a boulder-front lounge and a valley-facing bedroom want different things. Every product below is made to measure, per window; we confirm the rest at the free measure.
Blockout or sunscreen fabric that takes the edge off the five o’clock sun without losing the swell line.
Explore
Align the bands for the sunset, offset them once the valley goes properly dark.
Explore
Powder-coated aluminium that shrugs off salt spray, tilted to steer the westerly light off the water.
Explore
Air-cell insulation for a west-facing wall of glass that catches the full afternoon sun with nothing to soften it.
Explore
The practical call for a wide sliding wall onto the deck — tilt for light, draw clear for the boulders and the break.
Explore
Fabric drops from a slot in the ceiling, so a glass wall built for the view stays uninterrupted when it’s up.
Explore
Tensioned systems that hold flat on an angle — for the gable glass this granite hillside is full of.
Explore
One button for a wall of glass too wide to reach by hand, set to close itself before the worst of the glare.
Explore
Heat and glare stopped outside the glass, before the afternoon sun ever reaches the room.
Explore
External shading for exposed glazing, built to take the valley wind while it kills the glare.
Shading, not security. Our roller shutters are made for sun, heat and glare control on the outside of the glass. They are not security-rated shutters — that is a different product, which we can quote on request.
Explore
Retractable shade over the deck, with a wind sensor that pulls it in before the funnel gets serious.
Explore
Zipped side channels that hold tight in real wind, so evenings on the deck don’t end when the breeze picks up.
ExploreGlass-walled lounges built for the sunset, bedrooms that wake up to the swell, and decks that fill up every evening — this is what made-to-measure, salt-rated shading is for.
Llandudno has never had municipal street lighting — a long-held community choice that keeps the valley genuinely dark after sunset, which is exactly why the beach fills up every evening to watch the sun go down behind the boulders. It also means interior light control matters here in a way most suburbs never have to think about.
Most homes are terraced up the granite hillside facing that same sunset, which means the same wall of glass that draws people here every evening takes the full brunt of the afternoon sun. None of it is solved by a standard blind off a shelf, which is why every quote starts with an on-site measure, not a phone estimate.
No online measuring tools, no guesswork — every window gets a real consultant with a tape measure before a single fabric is cut.
Chat, form or call — tell us the rooms, the product interest, and how exposed your glass is to sun, wind or spray.
An expert consultant visits with samples, measures every opening precisely, and checks hardware specification against your position on the hillside.
Made-to-measure pricing per window, every option itemised — no surprises when the invoice arrives.
Manufactured to order and professionally installed, level and tested, with an operation demo before we leave.
Based in Llandudno, working right along the coast on both sides of the valley.
Yes — it’s standard here, not an upgrade. Powder-coated aluminium components and sealed cassettes on exterior products handle salt spray far better than untreated hardware. Even so, we’re honest that marine-spec fittings still benefit from an occasional fresh-water wipe-down this close to the break — we’ll cover that at the measure.
Sunscreen roller fabric at 3–5% openness is usually the answer — it cuts glare and UV while keeping the outline of the view. Lower openness blocks more heat and glare but shows less through the fabric, so we help you weigh that trade-off room by room at the measure.
We specify exterior products with a genuine wind rating, and a wind sensor for automatic retraction is the responsible spec on any exposed deck or terrace — an awning or screen caught open when the funnel picks up can be destroyed. We’ll flag exposed positions at the free measure.
Yes — full blockout fabric or a double roller (sunscreen by day, blockout by night on one bracket) are both common choices here. With the valley going properly dark after sunset, most bedrooms want that option even if the lounge stays on sunscreen.
Yes. Chain and cord tensioners anchoring the loop taut to the wall are standard on our installs, wand-tilt and cordless options are available for nurseries and kids’ rooms, and motorisation removes cords and chains entirely — ask about child-safe controls for any room.
Everything is made to order, so timing depends on the product and how much is on the order — your written quote will confirm the lead time for your specific job rather than a generic estimate.
