About Us
Over a decade of supplying and fitting roller blinds, aluminium venetian blinds, wooden blinds, bamboo blinds, blockout blinds and motorised blinds across Cape Town and the Western Cape.
Our Story
Window Blinds Cape Town was founded with a simple goal: to deliver professionally fitted, high-quality window blinds at honest prices to Cape Town homeowners, landlords, property developers and businesses. Based in Kommetjie on the Cape Peninsula's Atlantic coast, we have grown over the past decade into one of Cape Town's most recognised window treatment specialists — serving suburbs from Bloubergstrand in the north to Simon's Town in the south, and across to Bellville, Durbanville and Brackenfell in the Northern Suburbs.
Our team of experienced fitters and consultants understands that window blinds are both a functional and aesthetic decision. The right roller blind in a Sea Point apartment filters ocean glare without sacrificing the Table Mountain view. A 50mm aluminium venetian blind in a Milnerton kitchen withstands coastal humidity while keeping the space bright. A bamboo woven blind in a Constantia wine estate study adds warmth that no synthetic product can replicate.
We are not a national chain. We are a Cape Town business that has earned our reputation one installation at a time — in homes along the Atlantic Seaboard, in offices across Century City and the V&A Waterfront precinct, in schools across the Cape Flats, and in homes throughout the Cape Winelands corridor from Stellenbosch to Franschhoek.
Every blind we supply is cut to your exact window measurements in our own workshop. We do not sub-contract our installations. Our fitters are employed directly by Window Blinds Cape Town, trained in our standards, and accountable to our quality guarantee. From the initial free measure-and-quote visit through to the final installation, you deal with the same local team throughout.
Cape Town's climate creates specific window treatment challenges that generic suppliers do not always understand. The Western Cape's Mediterranean climate delivers intense summer UV from the north-west, fierce south-easter winds in December and January, and significant winter rain from the north-west. Coastal properties from Clifton to Kommetjie face salt-laden air that corrodes untreated aluminium and degrades unsealed timber within months.
Our products are selected and specified for Cape Town conditions. Aluminium venetian blinds carry anodised salt-air resistant coatings. Wooden blinds are kiln-dried and humidity-treated before installation. Outdoor blinds use marine-grade PVC-coated fibreglass mesh. We recommend the right product for your suburb and window orientation — not simply the most expensive option on our catalogue.
How We Work
Every project follows the same four-step process, whether it's a single bedroom roller blind in Rondebosch or a 50-blind office installation in Bellville.
We visit your Cape Town property at a time that suits you, measure every window precisely, and provide a written quote with no obligation. Our measure-and-quote service is free throughout the Cape Town Metro.
All blinds are cut to your exact window dimensions in our Kommetjie workshop. Custom-cut blinds are typically ready within 3–7 working days, depending on product type and current order volume.
Our directly employed Cape Town fitters install your blinds cleanly and efficiently — brackets secured, mechanisms tested, site left tidy. A standard 5–10 blind residential installation takes 1.5–3 hours.
We stand behind our work. If a mechanism fails or a blind needs adjustment after installation, contact us on 069 854 1275 and we will resolve the issue — no unnecessary delays or call-centre runaround.
