Roller Blinds
Roller Blinds – Classic Simplicity & Versatility
Roller blinds are among the most popular window coverings for good reason: They’re sleek, easy to use, and available in an enormous variety of fabrics to suit every room and style. At Holman and Son Limited, our made-to-measure roller blinds offer both form and function—from light-filtering day fabrics to full blackout solutions.
How Roller Blinds Work
A single piece of fabric is mounted on a slim tube concealed within a cassette or simple brackets. You operate them via:
- Chain control – precise up/down adjustment
- Spring-loaded – smooth “pull down, release” action
- Motorised – touch-of-a-button or smart-home integration
When rolled up, the fabric neatly disappears into its cassette; when rolled down, it provides a clean, flat covering.
