Vertical Blinds in Coventry – Made to Measure, Supply & Professionally Fitted
Vertical blinds are the practical answer to large windows, patio doors and conservatories. The louvres stack neatly to one side rather than rolling up or folding inwards, so you get full clear access to the door whenever you want it. Pull them closed and you have proper light control and full privacy. It’s a sensible, hard-working choice, and when you pick the right fabric it looks genuinely smart.
At Coventry Blinds we’ve been making and fitting vertical blinds for Coventry and Warwickshire homes since 2007. The team is local, the service is personal, and we take as much care with a simple PVC louvre as we do with a curved track system on a Victorian bay.
Why vertical blinds work so well for patio doors
Patio doors are awkward for window dressings. Rollers and Romans gather at the top and obstruct the door frame. Curtains take up valuable wall space and can be a faff to manage with kids running in and out. Vertical blinds solve both problems.
The louvres draw to the side (or split from the centre, depending on what suits you), leaving the door completely clear when you actually want to use it. The headrail sits neatly in the door recess; the louvres hang clear of the floor. Closed, they give you full light control and privacy. Open, they’re basically invisible.
Our fabric range
We carry a wide selection of fabrics across the full range of performance types. Whatever the room actually needs, we’ll have a fabric to suit:
- Blackout louvres — block all light and overlap slightly when closed, which actually reduces light bleed more effectively than blackout roller blinds. Popular for bedrooms and media rooms.
- Dim-out fabrics — offer privacy while allowing a soft warmth of light into the room. Good for living rooms and children’s bedrooms.
- Light-filtering fabrics — diffuse glare without darkening the room. Ideal for home offices and south-facing rooms where you’re fighting glare on screens.
- Thermal fabrics — reduce heat loss through large windows and patio doors. Particularly useful in north-facing rooms or conservatories that lose heat in winter.
- Waterproof PVC louvres — wipe-clean and moisture-resistant, ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms.
- Sheer voile louvres — a beautiful gossamer finish with daytime privacy. Elegant in living rooms and bay windows.
For large windows and wide bays
Vertical blinds scale well, which is a major advantage over horizontal blinds. Our track systems can span several metres without bowing or drooping — a common problem with wide horizontal blinds. For particularly wide windows we use a split-draw configuration, which means you control the blind from the centre rather than having to reach across half the room.
For bay windows, we also make curved vertical track blinds that follow the exact angles of your bay, giving you a flush fit with no awkward gaps where the bay turns.
Our fitting process
We’re a local Coventry family-run business based at our workshop on Endemere Road — not a call centre, not a franchise. When you contact us, you speak to the team that will measure your windows and fit your blinds.
We visit at a time that suits you, measure every window precisely with a laser, bring the full fabric range so you can compare in your actual light, then build your blinds to those exact dimensions. Fitting is done by our own trained team, never subcontracted. All our vertical blinds carry a manufacturer’s warranty, and we’re on the end of the phone if you ever need a louvre replaced or a mechanism adjusted — even years later.
We cover Coventry, Kenilworth, Leamington Spa, Warwick, Rugby, Bedworth, Nuneaton, Solihull and the surrounding Warwickshire villages.

Frequently Asked Questions — Vertical Blinds Coventry
Are vertical blinds good for patio doors?
Yes — they’re arguably the best option for patio doors. The louvres draw to the side for unobstructed access through the door, and the track sits inside the door recess so nothing gets in the way of opening or closing.
How much do vertical blinds cost in Coventry?
For a standard patio door, expect to pay from around £160 to £270 supplied and fitted, depending on size and fabric. You’ll get a precise, itemised quote after we measure during the free survey.
Can vertical blinds be motorised?
Yes. We offer remote-controlled, app-operated and smart-home-compatible motorised vertical blinds — particularly popular for large conservatory windows and any blind that’s a bit out of easy reach.
How long do vertical blinds last?
High-quality vertical blinds fitted professionally typically last 8-15 years or more. We source from trusted UK manufacturers and use heavy-duty track systems that don’t bow or sag over time.
Do you replace individual louvres?
Yes — if a louvre gets damaged (the dog, the toddler, the unfortunate vase incident), we can usually replace it individually without having to redo the whole blind. We keep records of your fabric and track type so we can match exactly, even years later.
