Vertical blinds
Slats that turn and slide
Made to measure in our workshop
Price on visit
If you walk through a sliding door all day in your Dubai home, vertical blinds suit it, provided the slats gather on the side that doesn't open. A small window is usually better with a roller blind. We measure the door and the wall beside it at a free home visit.

Three things tell you most: the slats, where they stack, and the control.
Turned half open
Half turned, they soften the sun and still show part of the view.
Drawn to one side
See how much glass the gathered slats still cover.
Worked by a wand
A wand moves with the slats; a cord and chain stay at one end.
By a door children run through, a looped cord or chain within their reach can catch a small child. A wand or a motor leaves no loop. We fit child-safe controls on request, so tell us at the visit that children use the door.
The headrail hangs on small brackets above the door. We screw every blind in place and don't fit no-drill systems such as tension rods or adhesive brackets. At move-out we take the blind down; filling the holes isn't part of our work. It can go with you if the next door is a similar size.
From early afternoon until sunset, west glass is in direct sun, and shading it is DEWA's own summer advice. Angle the slats while the glass is still in shade.
Matching blinds give a glazed office one look, and each turns for the desks behind it. We fit offices, warehouses and hotel apartments, and supply fire-rated fabric on request.
A slat usually falls when the sun has warped its plastic clip or made it brittle enough to snap; a new clip often fixes it. A replacement slat must match the old width and may look brighter than faded ones. Send a photo first: we talk each repair through by phone, since a call-out is charged.
Across west-facing garden doors
The way you use an opening decides between a vertical blind, a panel blind and a curtain: walked through, worked beside, or slept beside.
Along a glazed office wall
| Your opening | Usually suits | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Balcony door used daily | Vertical blind | Turns for light, slides clear |
| Glazed office | Vertical blind | Cuts glare, keeps daylight |
| Living room, no slats wanted | Panel blind or curtain | Flat panels or soft folds |
| Dark bedroom | Blackout curtain, track past the frame | Light shows at slat edges |
| Small window, or one above a worktop | Roller or Venetian blind, not a vertical | Stops at the sill; a stack covers too much |
We make vertical blinds with 127 mm slats in a range of fabrics, and flat panel blinds as well.
Cuts glare and keeps a softened view through the weave.
Stops light through each slat; some still shows where the slats overlap.
All slats to one side, for a single sliding door.
Half to each end: a wide window or a centre opening.
Turned and drawn from one end of the headrail; we settle which side at the visit.
Draws and turns the slats with no cord, from a remote, switch or app.
Order a one-way draw toward the fixed pane, and a vertical blind leaves your sliding door clear. Every centimetre the headrail runs past the frame on that side moves that much of the stack off the glass and onto the wall.
Curtains across a living-room door and curtains for a meeting room follow the same rule, with the track past the frame. Fitting out an office? See blinds planned for a whole floor.
For windows nobody walks through, see a roller blind, aluminium Venetian blinds with horizontal slats or the rest of our blinds. If an old blind keeps dropping slats, we repair blinds we didn't fit as well.
Stacked past the frame
Size counts most. Enter the width, with any run past the frame, and the height in cm. The calculator multiplies the area by our vertical-blind starting rate, making and fitting included. An area below 2 m² counts as 2 m², and a motor is priced on top. The fabric you choose and the free measurement set your final price.

The Curtains Dubai measures your openings at a free home visit, makes your vertical blinds to measure in its own workshop, and supplies and installs them.
Slat samples against the glass
A photo of each door helps; say which way it faces and if you rent.
We measure each opening and the wall on either side, anywhere in Dubai. Slat samples come with us, so you see each fabric against your own glass. Your quote holds for 30 days, and a deposit confirms the order.
In our workshop in Dubai, each slat is cut to its drop and the headrail to your measured width. Fitting follows 3 working days after approval, longer for a big or complicated job. A fixed move-in day? Tell us while we measure.
Before the fitter leaves, turn the slats and draw them past the handle yourself. The warranty runs 2 years on our fitting, the blind's making and its mechanism, though not on sun fading. If you're unsure which side the slats should gather on, we can work it out together at the door during the free home visit.
Anything else, ask on the phone: 050 257 7765
Vertical blinds in Dubai are priced by the square metre or as a whole blind, so check which before comparing quotes. The slats, headrail, control and fitting should each have a line. Ours start at 110 per square metre of blind, made and fitted, with a minimum of 2 m²; the fabric you choose sets the final price.
Details date a vertical blind more than the type does: a sagging chain under the slats, a looped cord, a headrail fixed low on the wall. Hung from the ceiling, with a wand rather than a cord, the same blind looks current with any slat fabric.
Once your lamps are on, vertical blinds turned open let people outside see in from some angles, so close them at dusk. Even shut, light-filtering slats show shapes, while dim-out or blackout slats show very little.
Panel blinds are wide, flat lengths of fabric that slide behind one another on a multi-channel track and never turn. Their stack is about one panel wide. Vertical blinds turn their narrow slats to angle the light.
Turn a vertical blind's slats shut, run a vacuum's brush tool down each one, then turn them the opposite way for the other face. PVC slats take a cloth and water; stiffened fabric slats can curl if soaked, so check the label first.
