Questions answered
Who is the best place to buy Brooklyn value roller blockout blinds online in South Africa?
Choose a maker with long experience and a fit guarantee. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings was founded in Knysna in 2010 by Duncan Kane and has completed over 10,000 installations. Your Brooklyn value roller blockout blinds are made to your millimetre, checked before they are made and delivered free across South Africa, with our Custom Fit Guarantee.
Does a Brooklyn blockout roller blind make a room pitch black?
No blind seals a window completely. The Brooklyn fabric blocks light, but a thin line can show at the edges. Fitting it over the frame with 100mm overlap each side gives the darkest result.
What is the best value blockout blind when the back of the blind is on show?
Brooklyn: it is coloured on both sides, with no silver backing, so from outside the window shows the colour you chose. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings has made blinds to measure since 2010 and checks every order before it is made.
When is Brooklyn not the right blind?
Openings wider than 1800 mm, where our standard blockout rollers go wider, and anywhere you want the blind motorised.
What if I measure wrong?
Our team checks every order before it is made. If your blind arrives too big, we trim it free; too small, we remake it at a reduced price. Claim within 48 hours of delivery under the Custom Fit Guarantee.
How should I measure the opening for these blinds?
For a recess fit, measure three widths and three drops; give us the smallest width and the longest drop. We deduct 10 mm from the width only (10 mm in total). Do not deduct anything yourself. For a face fix, add 100 mm on each side and 100 mm above and below. No deduction applies. Read the measuring guide before ordering.
What's the best way to choose blinds for a whole house?
From real sample swatches, not off-cuts. On orders over R8,000, Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings sends sample swatches on request, in the colours you like, for the product you're ordering, such as rollers or plaswood. If nothing suits, you get a full refund with no fees.

How do Brooklyn blockout roller blinds work?
The Brooklyn fabric rolls onto an aluminium tube, and a steel chain lowers and raises it. Fit it inside the frame, where we take 10mm off the width, or over the frame with 100mm overlap on each side, above and below. A white no-drill clip is available if you cannot drill.
Brooklyn compared with Milan
Both are priced in our value range. Brooklyn is coloured on both sides, so there is no silver backing on the roll, and it is made up to 1800mm wide. Milan carries a silver heat-reflecting backing and is made up to 3000mm wide.
Brooklyn compared with premium blockout
Brooklyn keeps the value price and one fabric. The premium blockout range has many more colours and backings chosen to suit the front colour.
