Kalk Bay · Cape Town

Made-to-measure blinds for Kalk Bay's heritage cottages & seafront homes

Fisherman's cottages, Victorian seafronts and mountain-side hideaways — Kalk Bay's windows are charming, odd-sized and staring straight into False Bay light. We make blinds to fit exactly that: measured to the opening, specified for sea air, chosen for character.

Blinds that understand Kalk Bay

Almost nothing in Kalk Bay is a standard size. Heritage openings, deep reveals and quirky renovations are why made-to-measure isn't a luxury here — it's the only thing that fits. We measure every window individually and recommend treatments that suit the cottage, not fight it.

False Bay mornings deliver glorious low light and hard glare off the water; salt rides every breeze. Sunscreen rollers keep the harbour view while cutting the dazzle, timber venetians warm the heritage rooms, and every piece of hardware is chosen with the sea in mind.

The False Bay Window Field Guide

Before you spend a rand, read our window-by-window guide to shading a Kalk Bay home — how the east-facing morning glare off the water, the salt air and the summer south-easter change what belongs on each window, with honest product trade-offs both ways. There's a two-minute ballpark tool at the end, and a free in-home measure whenever you're ready.

Common questions

Our cottage windows are all odd sizes — is that a problem?
It's our speciality. Everything we fit is made-to-measure from an individual measure of each opening; odd sizes, deep reveals and out-of-square heritage frames are normal here.
What cuts the glare off the sea without losing the view?
Sunscreen mesh — typically 3–5% openness for water glare. We bring samples so you can judge against your own view before choosing.
