Schools are tough environments for window blinds. With the daily chaos of hundreds of students, your average domestic blind just won’t cut it. That’s where our specialist school range comes in.
Built for School Life
Safety comes first. We’ve removed all the dangerous bits – no hanging cords that children can get tangled in, and mechanisms designed to withstand the kind of “testing” only schoolchildren can provide. Most of our fabrics are flame-resistant also.
Light control that works. Anyone who’s tried to show a PowerPoint presentation while battling glare from three different windows knows the struggle. Our fabrics let you dial in exactly the right amount of light; enough to keep the room bright and welcoming, but not so much that half the class can’t see the interactive whiteboard.
Easy to keep clean. From art class paint splatters to the mysterious sticky substances that appear in primary schools, these blinds have seen it all. Our Teflon coatings ensure that most messes don’t stick!
Temperature and noise control. Thermal-lined options help keep heating bills reasonable and create quieter spaces for concentration.
Different Blinds for Different Spaces
Screen roller blinds are perfect for regular classrooms – they reduce glare while still letting natural light through. Various “openness” options mean you can choose how much visibility you want.
Vertical blinds handle those awkward large windows or patio doors to outdoor learning areas. With over 200 fabric choices, there’s something to suit any school’s style.
Roman blinds add a more polished look to reception areas, staff rooms, or the head’s office. Still practical, but a bit more sophisticated.
Motorised options are increasingly popular, especially in halls and larger spaces. No more interrupting lessons to adjust blinds, and they can integrate with building management systems for automatic operation.
