Light Filtering fabrics are sheer in finish and allow the maximum of light in.  Screen fabrics block UV rays and reduce energy efficiency.

Can you see through sunscreen Blinds at night?

Can you join two Roller Blinds together?

When you have two or more blinds side by side,  you can link them using joining brackets. The linked joining bracket will couple the blinds together so that only one of the blinds needs a chain control, whereas the independent joining bracket requires each blind to have a chain control.

Can you combine two blinds in one window?

The perfect solution if your neighbours are more interested in you than their holiday. Double Roller Blinds are combining two blinds in one – the translucent layer lets a soft glow of light into your room and also keeps out unwanted eyes, while the blackout layer is perfect when you want to shut down for the night.
