Questions answered
Who is the best place to buy 25mm aluwood venetian 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 25mm aluwood venetian 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 difference between 25 mm and 50 mm Venetian slats?
The measurement is the depth of each slat, not its thickness. A 25 mm blind has more, narrower slats; a 50 mm blind has fewer, wider slats. Slat width alone does not establish which blind is stronger. Compare the material, appearance and size supported by the chosen product.
What is the best wood-look blind for a small kitchen window?
A 25mm Aluwood venetian: slim slats suit a small window, and aluminium handles steam. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings, fitting blinds since 2010, suggests it over real wood in any damp room.
Who should not buy a 25mm Aluwood venetian blind?
Large window? Choose 50mm Aluwood for a bolder look. Want real timber grain in a dry room? Choose real wood.
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.
