Roller blinds with measure & installation

Roller blinds roll onto a tube above the window, leaving a simple profile when open. Start with how you want the room to feel: darker for sleeping, softly lit for everyday living, or connected to the view through a sunscreen fabric. Klay supplies Panorama sunscreen fabric at fixed 5% openness. The small openings in its weave preserve a view through the fabric; other sunscreen ranges and percentages are not offered.

Choose your location and options in the shop. Final measurements and suitability are confirmed at the check measure.

Buy roller blinds with check measure and installation

Klay’s currently priced roller-blind configurations include GST, a professional check measure and installation. Choose blockout, light-filtering, Panorama 5% sunscreen or dual in the shop; the price changes with your fabric, size and controls. Dual pricing is the blockout price plus the light-filter price for the same size and operation. Products marked “Price on measure” are quote requests, not a confirmed selling price.

Where we install: Professional check measure and installation Australia-wide. Send your postcode to confirm local appointment availability for your selected product.

  1. Choose and order. Name the room, select your options and size band, and review the checkout total. Payment is taken before the check measure.
  2. Confirm the fit. The check measure confirms dimensions, mounting and suitability. Changes to the specification or price need your agreement before manufacture.
  3. Make and install. Klay arranges installation after the final specification is approved and the product is ready. Confirm timing for your postcode and chosen range.

Find the right fit

Choosing & fitting

Blockout, light filtering, sunscreen or dual roller blinds

Choose a roller blind by the light you want to keep, as well as the light you want to reduce. Blockout fabric suits bedrooms and media rooms where limiting light through the cloth matters. Light-filtering fabric softens daylight; sunscreen fabric prioritises a view through the mesh. Neither label establishes the same privacy level in every room.

A dual roller blind combines two separately operated fabrics, so you can use a daytime layer and lower the blockout layer for evening privacy. Compare physical fabric samples at the window: room lighting, glass and the position of neighbours all affect the result.

Fit, hardware and motorised operation

Inside-reveal mounting keeps the blind within the opening; face-fit mounting covers more of the surrounding wall. Handles, opening sashes and the depth of the reveal can determine which works. Ask about edge gaps and overlap if bedroom darkness is the priority.

The shop lists the approved fabric-specific roller configurations and size bands. These are order selections, rather than final cutting measurements. Current approved roller selling prices include GST, check measure and installation; check the order summary for the selected configuration. If choosing a motor, confirm its model, power supply, charging access and controls.

Before you choose

  • Blockout fabric limits light through the fabric; gaps around the blind can still admit light. Discuss fit and mounting at the check measure.
  • Sunscreen fabric is not a guarantee of privacy at night when the room is lit. Klay’s dual roller pairs a top blockout blind with a bottom light-filter blind. Choose each fabric and colour separately; location, size, hardware colour and operation are shared.

A room/location is required for every product in the shop and visualiser. Screen colours are a guide; ask about physical samples where colour matching matters.

Choose for the room, not the label

Which blinds are best for your space?

There is no single best blind for every home. These ten starting points explain what to compare and when another choice may suit you better. Check the shop for current availability; some ranges are coming soon.

Bedrooms and shift workers

Start with a blockout roller when reducing light through the fabric is the priority. A face fit or additional curtain can help with coverage, depending on the window.

Check before ordering: Ask the installer about side and top gaps. Blockout fabric does not by itself make a room completely dark.

Compare roller configurations

Home offices with a view

Compare Panorama 5% sunscreen for a view through the mesh with light-filtering fabric for softer daylight. Test a sample at the window while using your screen.

Check before ordering: Neither is a guarantee against screen glare in every position. Sunscreen is not a night-privacy solution when the room is brighter than outdoors.

Compare sunscreen and light filter

Street-facing living rooms

A dual roller gives you a daytime layer and a blockout layer for the evening. Klay’s dual option pairs top blockout with bottom light filter, not sunscreen.

Check before ordering: Check privacy from the street in different lighting. Both layers share size, hardware finish and operation choice; their fabric and colour selections are separate.

Compare dual roller blinds

New homes and whole-house orders

List every window by room before comparing quotes. Use blockout where darkness matters and a daytime fabric where you want light; one fabric need not suit the whole house.

Check before ordering: Compare the complete installed total with GST and controls included. A starting price for one small blind is not a whole-house price.

Review roller sizes and options

Renters and temporary homes

Agree on fixing requirements with the property owner or agent before ordering. If avoiding holes is essential, compare purpose-designed no-drill systems from suppliers that offer them.

Check before ordering: Klay’s standard fitted range is not advertised as no-drill or removable without marks. It may not be the right choice for a temporary installation.

Check fitting requirements

Bathrooms and damp rooms

Compare the 50mm PVC Venetian when adjustable slats suit the room. Tell Klay about splash exposure, ventilation and the window’s position before selecting a finish.

Check before ordering: PVC slats do not make the entire blind waterproof. Hardware, cleaning instructions and suitability still need checking.

Read the PVC Venetian guide

Rooms that feel hot or cold

Cellular blinds are worth comparing because their structure creates air pockets at the window. Consider the glazing, fit and coverage as well as the fabric.

Check before ordering: No fixed energy-bill saving is promised. Ask for test data for the selected model if a thermal rating is important.

Compare honeycomb blinds

Large windows and sliding doors

Compare curtains if you want fabric to gather beside a wide opening. For rollers, discuss whether several blinds and their joins will work with the door layout.

Check before ordering: Allow for handles, access, track support and the gathered fabric. An online size band does not confirm a large opening is suitable.

Compare curtains and stack-back

Hard-to-reach windows

Consider motorisation when reaching a chain would be awkward. Confirm the motor model, controls and power source as part of the order, not after installation.

Check before ordering: Rechargeable motors still need accessible charging. App, voice and smart-home compatibility depend on the actual motor and controller.

Check motorised roller options

Nurseries and family rooms

Choose the light-control fabric for the room, then separately check the operating system and safety fittings. Consider options without accessible operating cords.

Check before ordering: No blind should be described as child-proof. Keep cots and climbable furniture away from cords and have the installer demonstrate the safety fittings.

Questions before you order

Frequently asked questions

Which roller blind should I choose for a bedroom?

Start by comparing blockout and dual options. Consider morning light, night-time privacy and the space around the window. The installer can check the opening before manufacture.

What is the difference between blockout and blackout roller blinds?

Blockout describes the fabric’s resistance to light passing through it. People also search for blackout blinds, but a blockout fabric alone does not make the whole room completely dark: side, top and bottom gaps can admit light. Discuss mounting and coverage before manufacture.

Do sunscreen roller blinds give privacy at night?

Do not rely on them for night-time privacy. When the room is brighter than outside, people may be able to see through the mesh. A separate blockout layer, dual roller configuration or curtain gives you another way to manage the view.

Can roller blinds be motorised with Shyft?

Klay’s shop includes a motorised operation choice. The Shyft range includes rechargeable and 240V blind motors, but the selected motor must suit the tube, blind size and load. Ask Klay to confirm the actual motor and controls; a motorised choice does not identify a particular Shyft model.

How do I choose a roller blind size band?

Use the approximate window dimensions to compare the offered bands, then have the opening checked. Do not subtract manufacturing allowances yourself. A blind that falls outside the offered dimensions needs an enquiry rather than a guessed smaller band.

Can I match the visualiser colour exactly?

The visualiser and product photographs show an example. Screens, lighting and fabric texture change the apparent colour. Use a physical sample to check colour, openness and privacy before approving the finished specification.

Are manual blind chains safe around children?

Accessible chains and cords can create a strangulation hazard. Their safety fittings must be installed and used correctly. Keep furniture that children can climb away from the cords, and ask the installer to show you the fitted safety device.

Care & support

Follow the selected fabric’s care instructions before applying water or a cleaner. Start with gentle dust removal; do not soak the roller tube or motor. Stop using a blind that jams and ask Klay to check it rather than forcing the chain.

Keep the order details and any supplied care or warranty documents. For a fault, contact Klay with the product, installation details and a description or photo.

Shyft automation: motors, remote controls & warranty. Confirm the selected motor’s compatibility before ordering.
