Vertical blackout blinds are the perfect choice if you want complete privacy in your home. They are available in a wide range of designs and styles, all made using high-quality blackout fabric. The material is strong, durable and versatile, which means these blinds are built to last for many years while still maintaining their attractive look.
Our blackout vertical blinds are suitable for both small and large windows. They can be ordered at any time and are a cost-friendly option. We provide a colour chart with a wide selection of premium shades. You can select from blackout fabrics or light-filtering fabrics depending on your needs, and you will find these blinds offer excellent value for both large and small homes.
Main Features of Vertical Blackout Blinds
Your blind will arrive in two separate parts – one package for the slats and another for the rail and brackets. Delivery is carried out by our courier service, and in some cases, the two parts may arrive at different times.
Bracket Options
All blinds are supplied with top fix brackets as standard. If you prefer, you can request face fix brackets. These are best for fitting directly within the window frame or outside the recess.

Tips for Accurate Measurements
Outside Recess Measuring
If you would like the blind to sit outside the recess, measure the total area you want the blind to cover. To reduce light gaps, allow at least 70mm overlap at the top and 50mm on each side. The bottom overlap is your choice, but make sure you take into account anything that may obstruct, such as radiators. Always use a steel tape measure, as cloth tapes can stretch or bend and give inaccurate results.
Inside Recess Measuring
If you want the blind to fit inside the recess, measure the full width and height of the space. We will make the necessary deductions to ensure a neat fit. Take three measurements across both the width and the drop, then use the smallest figures. Do not make any deductions yourself, as this will be done for you. A steel measuring tape should always be used for the most accurate results.
Before you start fitting, make sure you have all the parts supplied with your vertical blind.
Additional Equipment You Will Need
Face Fix Method
Place the brackets around 5cm from each end of where the headrail will sit. If more than two brackets are supplied, space the extras evenly along the rail. Make sure the wall or surface fixings are secure and suitable for the material. Hook the back of the headrail into the bracket, rotate it into place, and tighten the screw at the front to hold it securely.
Top Fix Method
If fitting inside the recess, take into account anything that sticks out, such as window handles. Place the brackets about 10cm from each end of the headrail position to allow clearance. If you have more than two brackets, space them evenly across the length of the blind. Ensure the wall or ceiling fixings are secure. To fit, tilt and hook the headrail into the bracket, then rotate it until it clicks. To remove, press the release point on the bracket.
