Vertical blinds for sliding doors and large windows
Verticals got their bad name from office blinds, and fair enough. That look comes from stiff slats in a flat colour. In a fabric chosen against your own walls, vertical drapes, as some call them, draw aside like a curtain.
On a door, a blind gets in the way. You're carrying the washing basket to the line, so you push the blind aside and it swings back. Vertical blinds for sliding doors draw back once and leave the gap clear.
They suit:
✓ Ranch sliders and patio doors
✓ Bifolds that open up a whole wall
✓ Wide windows, up to about 5 metres
✓ Openings with a low ceiling or a beam above, where a roller won't fit
In offices and rentals, a damaged slat can be replaced on its own.
How vertical blinds work: tilt, draw and stack
The slats hang from a white top track. You can:
✓ Tilt them for light and privacy
✓ Draw the whole blind aside to walk through
✓ Stack them left, right, split to both sides, or to the centre
We set the stack to suit the way your slider opens, so the gap stays clear. You run them with a wand, or a cord and chain, with the control on either side.
Fabrics and colours: blockout and light filtering vertical blinds
Fabric vertical blinds come in two ranges, so start with how dark you want the room.
✓ Blockout vertical blinds in whites, neutrals, greys and black
✓ A light filtering range, which softens daylight and keeps some privacy
If the afternoon sun lands on the couch, blockout earns its place. Slats are 89mm or 100mm wide, in a tightly woven polyester with an acrylic coating.
We bring the showroom to you, because a fabric that looks right in a showroom often doesn't at home.
Vertical blinds or roller blinds for a large window?
The simple test: if you walk through it, go vertical. If it's a fixed pane, a roller usually suits it better.
Vertical blinds for large windows earn their keep on doors. On a wide window you never open, slats can look busy, and roller blinds give a cleaner line and sit tighter to the glass.
You can have both, verticals on the slider and rollers beside it. If you like tilting slats but the window isn't a door, our venetian blinds are worth a look.
Why we measure vertical blinds in person
Where the track sits, which way the stack falls and where the door handle is all shape the blind. Get one slightly wrong and you see it every day.
So every set of vertical blinds in Auckland we fit is measured by David or Roman, the two owners. Roman leads the install with our own team, so you won't be left wondering whether the blind clears the handle.
Your free quote is built on what we measure, not a guess from sizes.
Book the measure: call 09 441 9455. It's a home visit with samples, at your pace.
How long do vertical blinds take?
Our vertical blinds are made in NZ, and the lead time is 3 to 4 weeks from deposit to install.
If you need vertical blinds in Auckland before a move-in date, count back from it and call 09 441 9455 to book the measure.
Cleaning vertical blinds, and our 2-year warranty
Cleaning
Dust on dozens of slats is a fair worry. You clean them where they hang, and they never need washing.
✓ Dust top to bottom with a thick duster, or the soft brush on your vacuum
✓ Turn the slats and do the other face
Keep them out of the laundry tub, because the fabric carries a mould and mildew treatment.
Warranty
Everything we fit carries our 2 year full warranty: parts and labour, no call-out fee and no labour charge.
Old blinds
Sagging slats or broken carriers? Our repairs and servicing covers new slats, carriers and re-stringing, including verticals we didn't fit.

Vertical blind questions
Are vertical blinds good for sliding doors?
Yes. They draw aside so the doorway stays clear, and the slats tilt for light and privacy.
Vertical blinds or roller blinds for a large window?
Verticals suit glass you walk through, and a roller suits a fixed pane. If you'd rather have soft fabric, see our curtains.
What fabrics do vertical blinds come in?
A blockout range in whites, neutrals, greys and black, and a light filtering range, all in a tightly woven polyester with an acrylic coating. Slats are 89mm or 100mm wide, and we bring samples to your home.
How long do vertical blinds take?
3 to 4 weeks from deposit to install. Tell us your date at the measure and we'll plan around it.
How do I clean vertical blinds?
Dust them top to bottom, one face then the other. Don't wash them in a tub, because that strips the fabric's mould and mildew treatment.
Can you repair my old vertical blinds?
Yes, including sets we didn't fit. We can replace slats and carriers and re-string them.
Can you give me a price from my window sizes?
No. We measure every job in person first, and the measure and quote for vertical blinds in Auckland are free.
What warranty do you give?
Two years full, parts and labour, with no call-out fee. Servicing is available after that too.
