Window covering needs by industry.

Offices.

In office settings, window coverings contribute to increased productivity by reducing screen glare and creating a clean, minimalistic aesthetic that supports focus and professionalism. Popular choices include our Sunscreen Roller Blinds that filter harsh sunlight while maintaining natural light, and our innovative Motorised Blinds for effortless control and convenience.

Retail.

Retail environments require window treatments that balance display visibility with effective light management, all while complimenting stylish branding efforts. Our locally made Sheer Curtains add elegance and softness without obscuring merchandise. whereas our Double Roller Blinds provide versatile light filtering options that adapt to changing daylight conditions.

Healthcare.

In healthcare facilities, hygiene and privacy are most important. Window coverings must be easy to clean and incorporate antibacterial fabric options to support sanitary environments. Common selections include our easy to clean Roller Blinds and insulated Blockout Curtains, which offer privacy and help create a calming atmosphere for patients.

Hospitality (Cafes, Restaurants, Accommodation)

Hospitality venues rely on window furnishings to set the right ambience while offering functional benefits like blackout options for guest rooms and acoustic control for lively dining areas. Our deluxe Double Curtains are a popular choice for their premium feel and light blocking capabilities, often paired with our automated systems to enhance guest comfort and operational efficiency.

Education.

Schools and educational facilities prioritise glare control, safety compliance, and durability when it comes to window coverings. Options like our cord-safe Vertical Blinds, Cellular Blinds, and Sunscreen Roller Blinds ensure a safe, comfortable learning environment while withstanding the demands of high-traffic areas.

Compliance, safety + sustainability.

When selecting window coverings for commercial spaces, compliance, safety and sustainability are key. At dollar curtains + blinds, our extensive range is designed to meet rigorous commercial standards while supporting healthier, safer, and more environmentally responsible interiors.

Fire retardant fabrics are a critical requirement for many commercial and public buildings. Our locally made window coverings come with all of the necessary regulations without compromising on style or quality. This is particularly important in high occupancy areas like schools, hospitals, and hospitality venues.
Cord safety regulations are another essential consideration, especially in education and healthcare settings where child and patient safety is a priority. Our custom made products include cordless and motorised options that assist with eliminating hazards, adhering to all relevant safety standards and providing peace of mind.
For busy commercial environments, easy to clean, low maintenance materials are invaluable. Our Blind fabrics are designed to resist stains, resist fading from sun exposure, and incorporate anti-microbial properties, making them ideal for hygienic, hard-wearing applications.
We also prioritise health and sustainability by offering Curtain and Blind fabrics that are certified under Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 and Greenguard Gold, guaranteeing they are free from harmful chemicals, including VOCs, phthalates, formaldehyde, and heavy metals. These certifications make our window furnishings safe for sensitive environments, including aged care and healthcare facilities.
Many of our fabrics are tested for acoustic and thermal performance, essential for buildings pursuing LEED or Green Star certifications. These qualities help reduce noise pollution and improve energy efficiency, supporting green building initiatives and creating more comfortable, productive spaces.

Blind Fabric Samples

“The team at my local dc+b store offered valuable insights on layering Sheer and Blockout Curtains, selecting subtle fabrics, and complimenting heritage windows without overpowering them. It was all part of the process that helped us make confident, cohesive decisions in the end. ”

Custom Made VS Ready Made window coverings for commercial spaces: what's the difference?

When it comes to outfitting commercial interiors, choosing between custom made and ready made window coverings can significantly impact the look, functionality, and longevity of your space. Here’s a detailed comparison to help you make an informed decision:

Fit + function.

Our 100% custom made window coverings are tailored precisely to your window dimensions, ensuring a flawless fit regardless of size or shape. This eliminates gaps, improves light control, and enhances energy efficiency. Ready made options on the other hand, come in standard sizes that may not perfectly suit your windows, often compromising on performance and aesthetics.

Longevity.

Our tailored products are locally manufactured with commercial-grade materials and built to withstand the demands of busy environments. They offer superior durability and come with professional installation, reducing wear and tear. Ready made window coverings tend to have shorter lifespans and may require frequent replacements, especially in high-traffic areas.

Aesthetic impact.

With our custom made Curtains and Blinds, you have complete control over fabric choice, colour and style, allowing you to reinforce your brand identity and create a cohesive interior design. Ready made options offer limited styles and colours, which can result in a generic look that doesn’t compliment your space as effectively.

Installation quality.

Professional installation is a hallmark of our Australian Made window coverings, ensuring perfect fit, safety compliance, and smooth operation — especially important for motorised systems. Ready made products often rely on DIY installation, which can lead to improper fitting and reduced functionality.

Beyond these factors, our custom made window coverings add tangible value to commercial interiors by enhancing comfort, improving energy efficiency, and elevating the overall aesthetic. Investing in made to measure solutions is not just about appearance, its a strategic decision that supports the long term success and professionalism of your business environment.
