What Outdoor Blinds Include

Where Outdoor Blinds Suit

  • Covered patios and braai areas you want to use in winter.
  • Balconies facing the sun or wind.
  • Stoeps overlooked by neighbours.
  • Restaurant and café terraces.

Wind and Weather

Outdoor blinds are not storm protection. How much wind a blind can take depends on the product, guides and fixing. Ask each supplier what the system is rated for and when it should be raised.

Ballpark figures, not quotations. Indicative 2026 ranges, rounded, from published South African blinds price guides and Cape Town supplier price pages, checked September 2026. Per-blind figures are mostly supply prices for a window of about 1.2m x 1.5m, and fitting is often extra. Some sources include VAT and some do not, so confirm VAT on every quote. A measure and a written quote set the actual price. See Blinds Prices Cape Town for how these figures were compiled.

What Changes the Price

  • Width and drop.
  • PVC, mesh or a mix.
  • Side tracks or cables, and motorisation.
  • Fixing surface and access height.

Measuring, Quoting and Fitting

  1. Measure. The supplier measures each window, checks the frame or wall, and notes obstructions such as handles, burglar bars and cornices.
  2. Quote. You get a written quote per blind: product, fabric or slat, size, control, fitting and VAT.
  3. Order. Blinds are made to measure after you accept and pay any deposit. Ask for the lead time in writing.
  4. Fit. Brackets are fixed, the blinds hung, levelled and tested, and the controls explained.

The measurer checks the beams or posts can carry the fixings.

Cape Town Considerations

  • South-easter. Raise blinds in strong wind unless the product is rated for it.
  • Winter rain. Clear PVC lets you use a braai area through the wet months.
  • Salt air. Near the sea, ask about stainless or coated fittings.
  • Body corporate rules. Complexes often control what can be fitted to balconies and patios.
