Does your loft bedroom seem to get colder than the rest of your home?

It's something many homeowners notice once the temperature starts dropping.

While roof windows are brilliant for bringing natural light into loft conversions, they also create an area where heat can escape more readily than through the surrounding insulated roof.

One option worth considering is a VELUX Blackout Energy Pleated Blind.

Unlike an ordinary blackout roller blind, its honeycomb fabric has an aluminium-coated structure designed to improve insulation at the window.

It's an especially useful combination for bedrooms because you get two benefits from one blind: additional insulation on cold nights and excellent blackout when you want to sleep.

A useful tip for autumn and winter is to make the most of any sunshine during the day, then close the blinds as evening approaches to help retain warmth.

We've explained the technology and the different options in our blog:

Does your garage double as a storage room, workshop or somewhere to keep the bikes?

If you're replacing an older garage door, it's worth thinking about how you actually use the space.

Not all garage doors open in the same way.

Roller garage doors coil into a housing above the opening. This can be particularly useful if you have shelving, storage or equipment taking up valuable room inside.

Sectional garage doors open vertically before travelling back along tracks beneath the ceiling. They offer a different appearance, with a choice of panel styles and finishes.

Both can be good options, but there's more to consider than the door itself. Available headroom, internal obstructions, ceiling height and the dimensions of the opening all influence the choice.

Littlehampton Blinds supplies and installs SWS garage doors, including SeceuroGlide and AlluGuard systems, for homeowners across West Sussex.

If your existing garage door has seen better days, why not ask us about the alternatives?

Can you add blinds without replacing your existing curtains? Absolutely!

It's something worth considering if you're updating a living room or bedroom this autumn.

Perhaps you love your curtains but need better privacy during the day. Or you've got perfectly good blinds and would like to introduce a little more colour, pattern or texture.

The trick is to give each layer a purpose.

A roller blind can deal with afternoon glare while your curtains provide privacy in the evenings. In a bedroom, you might choose a blackout blind for light control, with lined curtains helping to cover the gaps around the edges.

There are a few practical things to get right, though. The blind must clear the window handles, the curtains need sufficient space to hang and gather, and both should be easy to operate.

We've covered the different combinations, fabric choices and fitting considerations in our latest blog:

A little reminder – don't miss out on the markilux cashback offer! ☀️

Summer may be behind us, but if you've been considering a new awning for your garden or patio, now could be an excellent time to make plans for next year.

markilux is currently offering up to £525 cashback on selected awnings and pergola systems purchased before 31 December 2026.

And there's plenty to think about beyond the fabric colour.

Would a retractable cassette awning suit your patio, or would a pergola system provide a better solution for a larger outdoor area? The right choice depends on the space, the available fixing positions and how you intend to use the area.

At Littlehampton Blinds, we're happy to talk through the possibilities and help you choose a suitable system.

Pop into our Littlehampton showroom or get in touch to find out more.

“I’d like privacy at the bottom, but daylight through the top.”

That’s a useful starting point for choosing shutters — and it doesn’t necessarily mean you need tier-on-tier panels.

A full-height shutter can be specified with a mid-rail and separate louvre controls. The lower slats can stay closed while the upper slats are angled to admit light. You retain full-height panels, which swing open as complete sections.

Tier-on-tier works differently: the upper panels can physically open away from the window while the lower panels remain closed.

So the question is whether you mainly want to adjust the upper slats or regularly open the upper panels completely. The window’s proportions and the space beside it also help determine which arrangement works best.

At Littlehampton Blinds, we’ll explain those differences before you choose. For shutters in Littlehampton, Rustington and surrounding West Sussex, contact us to discuss your windows.

The door you use to let the dog out is an important detail when choosing patio-door blinds.

With vertical blinds, you can tilt the vanes to adjust the daylight, then draw them back when you want access. But where they gather makes a difference: you don’t want the fabric sitting across your usual route into the garden.

Before ordering, think about which door opens first and where the blinds would sit when drawn back. Nearby furniture and projecting handles matter too. Depending on the chosen system, gathering the blinds at one side may suit your routine better than dividing them equally.

The fabric is still the enjoyable part — colour, texture and how much light it filters — but getting the opening arrangement right helps make the finished blind easier to live with.

For vertical blinds in Littlehampton, Rustington and nearby West Sussex, bring us a photo showing the whole doorway. We can help you work through the options.

Plenty of glass makes a conservatory a lovely place to sit — but it also gives warmth more opportunity to escape when the weather turns colder.

Closing blinds in the evening adds a layer at the windows that can help reduce heat loss through the glazing. Different blinds offer different levels of insulation, so it’s worth discussing how you use the room before choosing.

Here, white Venetian blinds sit neatly within the individual window and door frames. The slats can be tilted to soften daylight over the dining table or give more privacy.

And our fitter Frank received this lovely review:

Before choosing a Blind Screen™, ask to see how it opens and closes.
Think about the position from which you will use it and whether the handle is comfortable to reach. On a door opening, the frame and threshold arrangement deserve attention as well as the fabric.
We can discuss the appropriate Blind Screen™ options at Littlehampton Blinds. Start with how you use the window or door during a normal day.
