How These Prices Were Compiled
The ranges combine a national online blinds retailer's 2026 price guide (per-blind supply prices including VAT and delivery, updated 23 September 2026), a Gauteng blinds company's 2026 price, installation and repair guides (January 2026), two Cape Town blinds suppliers' published per m² and per-blind guides (undated, viewed September 2026), a South African cleaning company's blind cleaning guide (July 2026) and a Gauteng installer's skylight blinds guide (September 2025). All were checked in September 2026 and rounded. Where sources disagreed, the ranges cover both. Bamboo, panel and skylight prices had only one source each, so treat those as low confidence.
Ballpark figures, not quotations. Some sources include VAT and some do not, and some include fitting while others are supply only. A measure and a written quote set the actual price.

Blinds Price Questions
How much do blinds cost in Cape Town?
As 2026 ballparks, from about R400 for a small aluminium venetian to R3,000 - R6,000+ for zebra, honeycomb or panel blinds, before fitting.
Is fitting included in blind prices?
Often in supplier quotes, but not in most online prices. Fitting is about R250 - R1,000 per blind.
Why do blind quotes differ so much?
Fabric range, blind system, fitting and VAT. Compare the line items.
How much does it cost to motorise a blind?
About R2,200+ per blind for the motor, plus any hub and electrical work.
Are blinds cheaper per m² or per blind?
Suppliers price both ways. Small windows often carry a minimum charge, so per m² rates can mislead on small blinds.
