Translucent blinds give you the best of both worlds letting you maintain your privacy, while still allowing light into your room.
Our custom-made translucent blinds reduce glare, let in light but do not allow anyone to see in from the outside. Areas such as home offices or studies, bathrooms and living rooms can benefit from translucent blinds where both privacy and natural light is required.
These blinds are made from premium quality fabric that is thin enough to allow natural light to flow in and come in a variety of colours and fabric choices, both textured and patterned.
All of our translucent blinds are custom made and we only use the highest quality parts, so you don’t have to worry about our workmanship or the quality of the installation.
Our installation and design experts work with you to give you the personal service you deserve and best outcome for your home. Our in-home design service is completely free; we help you choose the fabric, colour and type of blind that will best suit each room.
Marlow & Finch offer several exclusive sunscreen fabric ranges for our custom-made blinds. All our blinds are manufactured in Sydney; we source only the best Australian made fabric products whenever possible and work tirelessly to maintain our exceptional standards of quality.
We stock hundreds of patterns and colours from some of Australia’s best-known manufacturers, such as Goodearl & Bailey, Louvolite, Materialised, Shaw, Mermet, Wilson & Basford Brands.
Marlow and Finch’s sunscreen blinds are laser-measured and manufactured to the exact measurements of our customers’ windows; therefore, we manufacture any size ranging from 400mm to 3200mm wide and generally up to 4000mm in drop.
Occasionally customers will have windows that are larger than those mentioned above. In those cases, our qualified installers will provide advice on how best to solve this.
Roller blinds can be measured in two ways; either to fit inside your window opening to provide a snug fit along the sides of the window and reduce the amount of light entering through, or they can be measured to hang over the front of the window to cover the opening.
Our consultants will also advise on the “roll” of the blind; front or back. However, unless there is an obvious technical reason like avoiding a door handle, in most cases it will be down to a customer’s personal aesthetic preference.
Back Roll
Back roller means that your blinds will be rolled from the front toward the back and that the fabric drop will be closest to the window.
Front Roll
Front rolled means that your blinds will be rolled from the back to the front and that the drop of the fabric will be the furthest it can be from the window.
Translucent blinds are a versatile window dressing. They provide a minimalist look and can be accompanied by curtains to achieve a contemporary, sophisticated look for your home or office interior.
All Marlow & Finch blinds come with stainless steel chains as standard. However, the upgrade or retro-fit automation options are simple; all blinds can be replaced with a motor for easy automation so that you can command your blinds at the touch of a button. Our remote controls can manage up to 15 roller window blinds simultaneously and, generally required only a few times a year, the blind motors themselves can be charged as easily as your mobile phone.
Our extensive range of electric motors can be configured to work with any pre-existing home automation system – including popular systems like C-Bus, Control4, Philips & Fibaro.
The Marlow & Finch free quote and design service is something that we not only pride ourselves on but continually strive to make it our differentiator. Our design and installation experts will work with you to give the best advice on what type of blind, colour and fabric will work best in any given space in your home. This personal service is crucial to getting the correct result in every environment; as such our staff have dedicated budgets for research, training and design events nationally to ensure we are always at the forefront of the industry.
