Why would you want motorised blinds?

• Convenience – With a remote control, at the touch of a button you can open and close your blinds as many times as you wish.
• Child Safety – Motorised blinds are inherently safe by design as they remove the need for operating cords altogether and therefore remove the potential danger to children.
• Home Automation – Motorised blinds can be integrated with Smart home systems and you can even be voice operated if they are integrated with a home hub such as Alexa or Google.
• Saving Energy – if your blinds are connected to a home hub or a sun sensor the blinds can be automatically adjusted to open or close to save energy
• Enhanced Security – Making your home appear as though it is occupied is an effective way to detour would be intruders.

We just had four venetian blinds made & fitted. Danny was very professional from start to finish and provided a competitive quote. We are very pleased with the quality, fittings & customer service.

Very pleased with the service from Marla. Good communication from Danny throughout and he's done a beautiful job of the blinds in my sun lounge. I would definitely use them again.

We needed some new conservatory aluminium Venetian blinds and Danny offered a an extremely competitive price for some Perfect Fit blinds together with a huge range of colour options. Having placed the order, the blinds arrived within two weeks and ahead of schedule and Danny fitted the blinds with great care and attention to detail. The service provided by Danny was superb from start to finish and I cannot recommend Marla Blinds and Danny highly enough.

We needed 3 blinds for a bay window and Danny advised on what was suitable, taking into consideration the light, type of fabric and type of blind. Measurements were taken and he ordered the blinds from the manufacturer. They were ready for installation about 3 weeks later. Danny took a couple of hours to complete the job. His work was meticulous and we were very happy with the end result. I tried to find fault with the work but couldn’t ! It’s rare to find someone who pays such attention to doing a quality job. 100% recommended, 5 stars, etc.

We were looking to get pleated blinds put up in our conservatory roof so called Marla Custom Blinds to have look. Danny came and showed us several options including sail blinds which we hadn’t thought of. We went for the sail blinds and they have transformed the conservatory. We have had a first class service from Danny and we are so pleased with the end result. Would thoroughly recommend Maria Custom Blinds to anybody looking to put blinds up in their conservatory

Danny arrived promptly to measure for our blinds. The quote was good and reasonable. We knew the quality of Marla blinds as we had used them previously. The blinds were installed by Danny and we are very happy with them.

Highly professional and hardworking. Danny engaged with me to design and quote for motorised roller blinds and shutter blinds. He kept me in the loop whilst the blinds were made and then installed to a really high standard. I would absolutely recommend. Great engagement, great value for money.

Excellent service from Danny. We wanted blackout blinds and weren’t sure of the best product as we had seen some online but they didn’t seem to quite offer full blackout. The blinds Danny recommended and installed for us have put our rooms in total darkness - fantastic job can’t say thank you enough
