We provide amazing allusion blinds in Newcastle and across the North East, and they have proven extremely popular at GLE Blinds & Curtains! They are absolutely perfect for large areas such as Patio Doors and Bi Folding Door Areas, but also suited in most windows. The fabric vanes are made up 2 fabric types – a sheer delicate voile that offers glare protection from sunlight without compromising on day light or views. The second part of the vane is a block fabric offering privacy at night, or when needed. The overall look mirrors a wave voile curtain but has the practicality of a functional blind. The blind is operated by a wand that can tilt the vanes from open, to partially open, to closed, or stack to the side. The unique benefit of the allusion means the blind can be walked though for easy access without having to operate your blind! It really does tick all the boxes! Allusion Blinds are a perfect solution for reducing the amount of blinding sunlight coming into your home, whilst still offering a brilliant view of the outdoors! They are truly unrivalled in terms of style and privacy which are just some of the great benefits of these blinds. Our Louvolite fabrics are simply stunning and have an innate ability to elevate and add beauty to every room. The Horizon and Vista colourways offer an uplifting and refreshing addition to your home with their light and inviting tones. In a range of a total of10 modern and on trend tones these blinds are hand made with UK manufactured parts and components! In addition to the beautiful Allusion range, we also offer the stunning Cellular blinds, Perfect Fit blinds, Roller blinds and many more.

There are so many types of blinds available to purchase, making finding the perfect one for your home an interior design challenge. We want to introduce to you a range of blinds that are stress-free, versatile and stylish. Perfect Fit blinds are quite literally the perfect option for any windows.

Available in a range of colours and patterns, these state-of-the-art systems fit seamlessly with your window and create a stunning feel for every room they are a part of. Perfect Fit blinds are simply an extension of your windows and doors, enhancing their beauty. No Damage! Perfect Fit blinds sit in their own frame and are neatly installed to your windows. This method is extremely useful for rented homes where it is sometimes prohibited to drill holes into the walls. The frame method also makes them incredibly stress-free and easy to install. Family Friendly Perfect Fit blinds do not have cords which makes them the ideal solution for family homes where small children are present. They are operated by handles or tabs as opposed to loose cords or loops which can be hazardous for children. Perfect Fit blinds are also available in a range of colours and patterns making them the perfect for any room in the house. You will be completely spoilt for choice when it comes to finding the perfect blinds! Mess Free Unlike many other styles, Perfect Fit blinds do not hang down onto your windowsill ensuring your windows remain tidy and your room flows wonderfully. They take up minimal space and are extremely easy to maintain due to easy removal. Thorough cleaning is essential for keeping your blinds looking their best and with Perfect Fit, that couldn’t be easier! Choose Perfect Fit blinds from GLE and keep your home looking bright and fresh throughout the year. Light and Temperature Control Because of the very precise fitting of Perfect Fit blinds, they cover all of your window entirely, meaning that there’s barely any gaps around the side of the blind that allow light in. This gives you maximum control over the natural lighting that enters your home, and makes Perfect Fit blinds a great choice for every room where control over the lighting conditions of the room is important. The precise fit also lends itself to temperature control, allowing you to keep your rooms cool in the summer and insulated in the winter. Perfect Fit blinds truly are the ideal choice for your home, and we are sure your windows will agree. At GLE Blinds & Curtains we also offer a range of beautiful blinds and curtains.
