Blinds and shutters built to cope with Dover's exposed hillside windows

Three things tend to come up on every Dover quote for blinds and shutters: reveal accuracy, fabric-to-room match, and how the dressing handles the local light.

What Dover customers ask us about first

  • Whether the price includes fitting and disposal of the old dressings (it does).
  • How the colour or fabric will look in their actual room rather than a showroom.
  • Around the Western Heights, wind-exposed coastal glazing that needs cassette systems is the detail we plan the Dover survey around.

What works well in Dover

Dover's cliff-top semis and Edwardian terraces catch a lot of wind off the Channel, so we lean towards cassette roller systems and closely fitted blinds that do not rattle when a window is open.

Cassette Roller Blinds
Roman Blinds
Plantation Shutters
Venetian Blinds

Terraces below the Western Heights

The Edwardian terraces below the Western Heights often have tall, narrow sash windows and deep sills. Roman blinds fitted inside the recess suit living rooms, and full height shutters work well on front bays facing busy streets. We measure every sash on the free home visit because older frames are rarely square.

Cliff-top homes and the Maxton estate

Higher homes on the cliffs and around Maxton take the full force of the wind and the morning sun. Blackout roller blinds in cassettes keep bedrooms dark, and Venetian blinds in aluminium cope well in bathrooms and kitchens. Blinds usually arrive 2 to 3 weeks after ordering, and shutters 6 to 10 weeks.
