Made to measure · Sea PointOne smooth sheet of fabric on a tube — the quiet workhorse of every promenade-facing apartment. Blockout for bedrooms, sunscreen for the view, and a sealed cassette so salt air never gets a foothold.
Same mechanism, three very different results. Most Sea Point apartments end up with a mix — and the free measure is where we match fabric to room, window by window.
Sea Point windows are wide, exposed and close to the water. That changes the specification — not the price of admission, just the thinking.
Wide sliding glass usually means two or three linked blinds rather than one oversized roll, so fabric stays taut and the tubes don’t bow. On floor-to-ceiling panes we’ll often recommend motorisation — not as a luxury, but because a chain on a three-metre drop is a chore, and a linked motor moves the whole wall of glass together.
Hardware is powder-coated aluminium and the roll hides inside a sealed cassette where the salt haze can’t settle. Chains, where fitted, are anchored taut to the wall with tensioners — child-safe as standard, not as an extra. And every install ends with an operation demo, because a blind you fight is a blind you stop using.
It helps meaningfully — a dark 3% sunscreen absorbs and rejects a good share of the glare load — but fabric inside the glass can only do so much on a full-west window. If heat is the main complaint, ask us about external options like zip screens at the measure; if glare and UV are the complaint, sunscreen is exactly the tool.
Up to a point — beyond roughly three metres a single roll gets heavy, the tube can deflect, and the fabric risks tracking. Linked blinds on one control, or a motorised pair, look cleaner and last longer. We’ll confirm the split at the measure so joins land on the door mullions.
A soft brush or vacuum on low for the fabric, and a damp fresh-water wipe for the hardware every month or two. It’s a five-minute habit that doubles the life of anything metal on this coastline — we’ll show you at handover.
The blockout-and-sunscreen combination earns its keep on almost every window we measure — from the stadium-facing towers of Green Point to Mouille Point’s front-row apartments, the sheltered west-facing glass of Bantry Bay and the wide sunset walls above Fresnaye. Wherever the light is the problem, a roller is usually the first answer.
