Blinds in Morningside

Estates and clusters wedged up against Sandton’s business district, where the glass is generous and the neighbours are close.

Morningside sits in the shadow of Sandton, and its housing stock reflects that: townhouse complexes and cluster developments built dense, with sizeable glazing and boundary walls a short walk from the windows. Two things follow. The rooms are bright, and privacy is a live concern in a way it simply is not on a bigger stand.

That combination is what venetians were made for. Tilt the slats a few degrees and the room keeps its daylight while the sightline from the unit opposite runs into the back of a slat. Where the window is a bedroom rather than a lounge, blockout rollers do the more absolute job — and day/night blinds cover the rooms that want both at different hours.

The other Morningside constant is traffic noise from the district. Blinds are not acoustic products and we will not pretend otherwise, though a cellular blind’s air cells and a heavier fabric do take a little of the edge off a hard, bright room.

How it works in Morningside. Same as everywhere we go: a free in-home measure with samples, a written quote itemised per window, then made to order and fitted. Nothing is manufactured until you have said yes to the price.

Questions

Morningside questions

The ones people in this area actually ask us.

Which blind suits a Morningside cluster best?

There is no single answer, but the pattern repeats: venetians or day/night where a neighbouring unit is close, blockout rollers in the bedrooms, and verticals or panels on the stacking doors. The measure sorts it room by room.

Can you help with an apartment rather than a cluster?

Yes. Apartments usually mean tighter reveals, aluminium frames and rules about what shows from outside — all of which we specify around routinely.

Do you fit blinds that block the noise?

Honestly, no — no blind is an acoustic product. A cellular blind and a heavier fabric soften a hard room slightly, but if noise is the real problem the answer lies in the glazing, not in us.
