Sun, heat and glare
Karachi sun is strong, so choose sunscreen or blackout fabric with a light reflective backing for west and south windows. Dark fabric absorbs heat. Outside-recess fitting gives better cover.
Humidity and salt air
Coastal humidity and salt air can corrode metal parts and mark fabric, so choose rust-proof brackets, aluminium or plastic tubes and wipeable coated fabric. Rinse off salt deposits with a damp cloth.
Blackout and sunscreen types
Blackout fabric darkens bedrooms, and sunscreen fabric cuts glare while keeping the view. In living rooms, a dual roller with both fabrics gives flexibility.
Measuring and fitting
Measure the width and height at three points and use the smallest width for inside-recess fitting and the largest for outside-recess fitting. Fitting should be done by a trained fixer, and the window frame, wall and fixing points checked for strength first.
Market buying
Karachi has many blind shops and fabric markets. Compare the same fabric, mechanism and fitting scope, ask for a sample and confirm delivery dates in writing. Finishes.pk is not a dealer.
Before you decide
Choose a reflective, coated fabric with rust-proof parts and compare quotes on the same specification. Ask the supplier for a written specification, a sample or small test piece and a clear return policy before paying. Measure the window or opening twice, order a small sample or a single panel first if the job is large, compare at least two quotes on the same specification of fabric, hardware and fitting, and keep the invoice and warranty card. Confirm delivery and fitting dates in writing, check the finished work in daylight and at night, and ask the supplier what happens if the colour or size differs from the sample. Prices change with fabric costs and stock, so confirm the current figure before you decide.
