When you come to Homepoint Coolum, we stock a wide range of custom made roller blinds that you can install easily. This is perfect for builders and DIYers alike. 

You can choose from different in-house fabrics that can be manufactured to your size requirements. You can have them in different colours and in a blackout or light filtering fabric. Our cutting table is state of the art and uses an ultrasonic cutting blade to ensure that blinds are cut with the straightest of edges and also seals the material against fraying.

The process is simple. Follow these steps:

1. Chose the fabric you want to use for your roller blinds. 
2. Measure the opening of your window, taking into consideration the width and drop.
3. Order the blinds with your specifications. 
4. Collect and install the blinds.

Blind Measuring Instructions

You will need a metal tape measure (cloth tapes are not accurate), a pen and paper to write down the sizes. You will need to measure your window in millimeters and decide if you want your blinds to sit inside or face fitted to the outside.

How to measure inside your window reveal. (Inside reveal)

• Measure the inside width of your window in 3 places. Write down the shortest. This is your Reveal width.
• Measure the inside length or drop of your window in 3 places. Write down the shortest. This is your Reveal drop. We will reduce your recess sizes to ensure the blind fits within the opening.
• Note: due to the controlling mechanisms on each end of the roller tube there will always be a gap of at least 15 mm between the edge of the fabric and the reveal. 

How to measure outside your window reveal. (Face fitted)

• Measure width where you want the blind to be allowing for overlap (usually 10-15cm each side, depending on your needs) Write it down. This is your exact width. You will need to consider the location of the brackets and how you will fix them to your wall or architrave. When measuring Make sure that you have made allowance for these brackets. 
• Measure the length where you want the blind to be allowing for overlap (usually 10-15cm top and bottom). This is your exact drop. We will make your blind to these exact overall dimensions and make no allowances.

Be sure to double check and triple check your measurements before ordering. Never take measurements of a plan, as the finished product often varies by a few mm.
