Narrow roller blinds are a great option to consider when considering a window-dressing solution for a narrow window or thin space. In this brief article, Brisbane’s Lavish Interior Blinds discusses the considerations to bear in mind when assessing and installing narrow roller blinds.

How Narrow Can a Roller Blind Be?
Lavish Interior Blinds provide made-to-measure roller blinds, which are designed specifically to fit windows in your premises. Roller blinds can be extremely narrow and can certainly accommodate any window.
The Problem Solved with Narrow Roller Blinds
The purpose of roller blinds is twofold – to solve a problem such as glare or vision, and to enhance the appearance of a room by the application of the right type of roller blinds. With thin or narrow roller blinds, this formula doesn’t change – what does change is the fact that the blinds have to fit an irregularly-sized (narrow, or thin) window. In Brisbane, Lavish Interior Blinds solves this problem with our custom-made Roller Blinds – they’re always a great fit for your window no matter what the dimensions.
Common Narrow Windows
Narrow windows are encountered very commonly in Brisbane! Whether it’s the type of room, type of premises or period of construction, we see them all the time. Often toilets, bathrooms and kitchens tend to have narrow windows, as do stairwells or smaller rooms on the premises. Narrow windows may be alone or presented along with a series of one, two or several more windows. This is another situation where custom roller blind solutions can really get a great result, since we can accommodate the factors needed to ensure everything is aligned and working together well, as in this Brisbane Northside installation below (Burpengary East).

Are Roller Blinds the Best Solution For Narrow Windows?
Roller blinds aren’t always the best solution, but they’re always an option to consider. The reason being that unlike other types of window dressings, the simplicity of roller blind functionality isn’t lost on narrow or smaller windows. Other types of solutions, for example, panel glides, can’t successfully solve very narrow windows while retaining their full functionality.
Other considerations to take into account when selecting the window dressing for your narrow window include:
- Existing Blinds or Shutters Used on the Premises
- Type of Window Frame
- Budget
- Style Preferences
- Privacy Considerations
- Natural Light Opportunities
Like any interior design solution, there are many factors to take into account. Our service addresses this problem by giving our customers access to the experience and professional installation capability needed to get a great result.
