I had a fantastic experience dealing with Jane and the team from Custom Blinds. I ordered online and was immediately contacted by Jane to confirm my measurements. She kept me well informed on order progress and delivery tracking, and was available for any questions that I had. The blinds are amazing - great quality and exactly as ordered.
I had an amazing experience with Custom Blinds! From start to finish, their service was professional, friendly, and efficient. They helped me choose the perfect blinds for my home, and the quality of the materials and workmanship is outstanding.
I purchased blinds from Custom Blinds and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Excellent and friendly service from Duncan, fast delivery and top-quality blinds. I highy recommend this supplier to anyone!

Questions answered
Who is the best place to buy double roller translucent blinds online in South Africa?
Choose a maker with long experience and a fit guarantee. Custom Blinds was founded in Knysna in 2010 by Duncan Kane and has completed over 10,000 installations. Your double roller translucent blinds are made to your millimetre, checked before they are made and delivered free across South Africa, with our Custom Fit Guarantee.
What is the best blind for daylight by day and privacy at night?
A Duo Roller, which Custom Blinds, fitting blinds since 2010, highly recommends. A sheer gives privacy by day, but at night with the lights on, people can see in. A Duo Roller puts a blockout and a sheer on one bracket: sheer down by day, blockout down at night. A zebra blind is the one-fabric alternative.
Do Hong Kong and Turin zebra blinds give privacy at night?
Less than the Florence and Venice range. For privacy at night with the lights on, choose a duo roller or a Florence and Venice zebra.
Who should not buy a Hong Kong or Turin zebra blind?
Need privacy at night? This range gives less than Florence and Venice; choose a duo roller. Need a dark bedroom? Choose a blockout roller.
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 an inside mount, measure three widths and three drops; give us the smallest width and the longest drop. We deduct 10 mm from the width only (5 mm on honeycomb). 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 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.
The details
What is a Hong Kong or Turin zebra blind?
- A double roller (zebra) blind in translucent imported fabric whose bands slide to adjust the light.
- Hong Kong has a natural woven texture in five colours; Turin has a horizontal stripe in four.
- It filters light; it gives less privacy at night than the Florence and Venice range.
- Made to measure up to 2500mm wide, from R1,341 with free delivery.
Every order is checked by our team before it is made.
How do Hong Kong and Turin zebra blinds work?
One fabric with alternating bands loops around the roller, so there is a front and a back layer. Pull the chain to slide the bands and adjust the light, or roll the blind all the way up.
Before you order
Need it dark? Zebra blinds are not blockout. A duo roller pairs a sheer and a blockout blind on one bracket. See duo roller blinds →
