Custom Roller Blindsin Geelong

“I often opt for a neutral palette with my blinds so that I can change up the decoratives seasonally. If you do it right the first time with quality locally made blinds like those from Brax, you will only have to do it once! ”

The Brax Roller Blinds

Roller blinds are sleek, modern, and minimal — an elegant yet highly practical way to cover your windows. Available in a massive range of fabrics and colours, they provide privacy, glare reduction, and precise light control while offering a clean, fashionable look that suits any home across Geelong, the Bellarine, and the Surfcoast.
 
At Brax, we use premium Acmeda® roller blind componentry, expertly manufactured right here in our South Geelong factory. Engineered to be robust and reliable, this system ensures smooth and quiet operation. The Acmeda system is available in four stylish colours to fully coordinate your brackets, chains, and controls with your chosen fabric.
 
Looking for ultimate convenience? Our roller blinds can be fully automated via Acmeda or Somfy smart home solutions. From a simple remote control to voice-activated smart home systems, we have an automation option to suit your lifestyle.

Dual Roller Blinds

Can’t decide between a view and a dark room? Dual blinds offer the best of both worlds. By mounting both a sunscreen blind and a blockout blind on one neat, slimline bracket, you have total control over daytime glare and nighttime privacy.

Translucent Roller Blinds

Translucent (light-filtering) roller blinds are a highly effective solution for rooms that require daytime and night time privacy, but don’t need total darkness. They allow a soft, ambient light to filter through, making them perfect for bathrooms, laundries, and home offices.

Blockout Roller Blinds

Blockout roller blinds use a fully opaque fabric to stop light in its tracks. Even in a light colour or white, these fabrics are designed to block streetlights and the morning sun. They are the perfect choice for bedrooms and home theatres where total light control and maximum privacy are essential.

Bonded Roller Blinds

Offering endless design possibilities, bonded roller blinds are created by adhering a stiffened backing to traditional drapery fabric. This allows the fabric to function smoothly as a roller blind. It is the perfect choice when you want to inject bold patterns or match your blinds directly to other curtains in your home. (Please note: To ensure the highest quality finish, our Bonded Roller Blinds are outsourced to a highly reputable specialist manufacturer in Melbourne).

Frequently Asked Questionson our Roller Blinds

A "recess fit" means the roller blind sits neatly inside the window frame, offering a highly streamlined look. A "face fit" means the blind is mounted on the wall or architrave above the window, which is highly recommended for blockout blinds as it minimises the amount of light bleeding through the edges. Our team will advise on the best fit for your specific windows during your measure.

Absolutely. By law, all Brax roller blinds installed with chain controls are fitted with child safety tensioners that fix the chain securely to the wall or window frame, eliminating loose loops. For the ultimate in child safety, you can opt for our cordless, motorised roller blinds.

Routine cleaning is easy! For sunscreen and blockout fabrics, gently dust them with a feather duster or lightly vacuum using a brush attachment on a low setting. For minor marks, you can spot-clean most fabrics by gently dabbing the area with a clean, damp cloth and mild soapy water (avoid harsh chemicals or vigorous scrubbing).

Yes, they do. A well-fitted blockout or sunscreen roller blind acts as an insulating barrier against the glass, helping to reflect the harsh Australian sun before it heats up your room. This can significantly improve your home's energy efficiency and reduce your reliance on air conditioning.

Something fitted externally, such as an external awning is the most efficient form of sun protection – preventing sun from hitting the glass, and therefore reducing the amount of radiant heat entering your home (or office). External awnings can prevent up to 75% of heat gain in Summer – which can mean significant savings on your cooling costs.
