Translucent Roller Blinds
The Translucent range of roller blind fabrics is a modern and sophisticated window treatment. Translucent blinds softly filter light and still provide a level of privacy. Unlike a sunscreen which is not private at night when the lights are on, a translucent roller will have a level of privacy where you may see shadows but not detail.
Double Blinds can be achieved by entering your size for the first blind e.g. the Blockout and then selecting our Double Bracket in the options below you will be prompted to select the second blind e.g. the Sunscreen

Select your details
FIT
Inside: fitting the blind inside the frame recess
Outside: fitting the blind to the frames architrave or above the frame.
(PLEASE NOTE ON ROLLER BLINDS THE SIZE YOU GIVE US IS TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE BRACKETS THE FABRIC IS 33mm NARROWER TO ALLOW FOR CONTROLS)
XROLL TYPE
Front roll: rolling blind fabric over the front of the tube.
Back roll: rolling fabric over the back of the tube.
Front Roll is best when the fabric has an off-white thermal coating. Or, blinds are going in a bay window. Or, you want to avoid a large handle or window latch.
Back Roll is always prefered if blinds are going outside fit, just make sure to check the coating colour of the fabric first.
XCONTROL SIDE
We recommend selecting the side that has easy access for the user. You may want to choose the side that is away from the opening of windows or doors.
The Driven Link option refers to a roller blind being operated by a chain of another roller blind in the same window. The driven link drives the second blind as you pull on the chain of the first blind so they operate in unison. Select Driven Link for the blind that does not have a chain side.
CONTROL TYPE
Standard type is chain operated for one blind on its own.
Driven Link: refers to a roller blind being operated by a chain of another roller blind in the same window. The Driven Link drives the second blind as you pull on the first blind so they operate in unison. Select Driven Link for the blind that does not have a chain side.
XCONTROL UNIT COLOUR
The control unit colour refers to the colour you want the blinds drive unit to be (mechanism that chain rolls through). Generally this is matched in with the blind fabric colour, chain, bottom rail or window joinery. This will also be the colour of the brackets supplied.
XCONTROL CHAIN LENGTH
The chain length stated is the length the chain drops down to. The chain must be at least half the drop of the blind. For example if your blind is 1000mm high chain must be at least 500mm. But a rule of 2 thirds can also be applied so just more than half is really affective. For example if your blind is 1000mm high a 750mm chain is perfect.
If your window height is shorter than the shortest chain option (500mm) please select the 500mm length BUT write a note in the comment section that for the particular window/s what length chain you'd like.
The comment section can be found once you have entered all order details and you are ready to BUY NOW.
XCHAIN COLOUR
The chain colour refers to the colour of the chain which operates the blind.
We recommend co-ordinating colours work best. For example having the chain, drive unit, bottom rail all the same colour and a colour that compliments the blind fabrics or surrounding features in your home.
XBOTTOM RAIL STYLE
The bottom rail style refers to the style and colour of the bottom rail which sits along the bottom edge of the roller blind.
We suggest linking all blind component colours together such as the bottom rail, chain, and brackets, drive unit.
Bottom rails are available in various different shapes Flat, Oval and Round.
XDOUBLE BRACKET
*If you are ordering a single blind for a window this is not required.
If you are ordering two blinds for one window, for example a suncreen roller and a blockout roller you can order a double bracket which is one bracket that holds two blinds. We suggest you order the sunscreen backroll and the blockout front roll so they do not rub on one another when in use.
Click on the double bracket below to view the bracket dimensions. Please call us for any advice.
XLINK SYSTEMS
*if you are ordering a single blind for a window this is not required.
Link Brackets are required when you are ordering two blinds side by side usually to cover a wide window. This is perfect for when the windows or doors are wider than 3000mm which is the maximum of most of our roller fabrics. Link Brackets are centre brackets used to support where the two blinds are meeting. There are a few ways you can order these.
LINK BRACKET NON DRIVEN allows individual control over each blind, you must order a left and right chain for your blinds. The non-driven link allows the blinds to function independent of one another.
LINK BRACKET DRIVEN allows the two blinds to be controlled at the same time using one chain at the specified end.
