Roller Blinds Middlesbrough

Roller Blinds Middlesbrough

A1 Blinds is the North East’s first choice for roller blind installation and can easily service both commercial and residential locations in Middlesbrough. Roller blinds are an easy-to-use, durable, and fashionable addition to any space. These window dressings are an effortless way to transform a room into a bespoke design expression. 

Roller blinds aren’t just an aesthetic choice – they are a simple shading solution that can help regulate the temperature of your home. Because they’re used to cover both door and window apertures, they can block any unwanted sunlight to keep a room cool or act as a thermal barrier to lock warm air in. 

The possibilities are endless, and A1 can make your roller blind design dreams a reality. We’re a local seller and manufacturer, which allows for quick delivery of the final product from people in the North East that you’ll like, know, and trust.

Benefits of Roller Blinds

Cost-Effective Heat Control

Weather in Middlesbrough and the greater North East can range from hot direct sunlight to chilled winter evenings. Whatever the condition, roller blinds are a great cost-effective way to control how the elements affect your home. By simply pulling the roller blinds down to fully cover the door or window, you can prevent sunlight from entering the home in summertime. When the temperature shifts, these roller blinds can also act as a thermal barrier to prevent heat from escaping. Your home will be just the right temperature, all year round! 

Longevity

Roller blinds are a reliable way to update the look of your Middlesbrough home. A1 uses durable, hard-wearing fabrics for a near infallible final product. Year on year, our roller blinds will continue to perform with the same high-quality and ease as when they were first installed. The result is a timeless, bespoke look that can last for decades – or at least until you want a fresh design!

Easy to Install 

Speaking of fresh designs – if you’d like to change the style of your roller blinds, A1 can easily accommodate that. Our easy and fast installation means that you can change up the look of your roller blinds as often as you’d like. We also offer complete control over your vision; from the colour, pattern, shape, or size, you can choose nearly every aspect of the final outcome. 

Uses of Roller Blinds 

In terms of shading solutions, roller blinds are some of the most versatile products on the market. Roller blinds can be used to decorate any room or office with window space and have a variety of uses depending on what’s needed. 

If a space needs a bit more privacy, roller blinds are a great option to obstruct any unwanted viewers. For example, roller blinds would be a welcome addition to any street-facing window into a private home. Simply pull the blinds down and any space instantly becomes a private safe haven. 

Because of the thickness and durability of the fabrics we use for our roller blinds, they’re a great option for blocking out any intrusive sunlight. The summer days in the North East, including Middlesbrough, can be quite long – with these blackout roller blinds, you can rest easy in a peaceful dark room whenever you need it. 

Roller blinds can also be a great conversation piece. A1 provides a variety of bespoke colours and styles to match a space’s style, and can even act as a surprise aesthetic element! Simply roll them down to reveal a custom or bespoke design that’ll quickly be the centre of attention.

Case Study: Bradley Hall Head Office

Case Study: Bradley Hall Head Office

Custom Branded Roller Blinds for Bradley Hall’s Grey Street HQ

Client: Bradley Hall
Location: Grey Street, Newcastle upon Tyne
Sector: Commercial Property
Scope: Custom Branded and Non-Branded Roller Blinds Across Two Floors
Project Status: Delivered to Spec, On Time, Within 2 Weeks

The Project

We were commissioned to design and install a combination of branded and non-branded roller blinds for Bradley Hall’s stunning new head office on Newcastle’s iconic Grey Street. The blinds not only enhance the aesthetic of the new space, but also provide practical year-round comfort.


What the Client Needed

As the building is listed, Bradley Hall were unable to use external signage to display their brand identity. They needed an interior solution that would subtly represent their brand in a stylish, professional way, while still providing effective solar shading and heat retention.


The Challenge

  • No external signage permitted due to the heritage status of the building.
  • No parking for unloading equipment.
  • 4-metre-high windows requiring specialist ladder access.
  • Narrow spiral staircases, making it difficult to manoeuvre materials without damaging freshly decorated walls and doors.

The client also required a rapid turnaround ahead of moving into their new space.


How We Overcame It

Our team designed and manufactured a blend of branded and non-branded roller blinds, ensuring a cohesive look across two floors. The installation required exceptional care and expertise to work safely within the constraints of a heritage building.

Despite the logistical hurdles, we delivered the entire project from initial enquiry to completion in under 2 weeks, meeting Bradley Hall’s deadlines without compromising on quality.


The Result

The finished installation delivered:

  • Stylish integration of Bradley Hall’s branding into the new office.
  • Effective shading and thermal control for year-round comfort.
  • Seamless delivery within a limited timeframe.
  • A high-quality installation, despite the challenges of restricted access and building constraints.

Client Feedback

“Huge thanks to you and the team Kevin! Fantastic service from start to finish, quick turnaround and quality product and installation. They look great!”

– Sharon Boyd, Chief Operating Officer, Bradley Hall North East / Yorkshire


The Bigger Picture

This project demonstrates our ability to combine branding, design, and practicality, even in heritage or conservation-area buildings where signage is restricted. It also underlines our expertise in overcoming complex site challenges and delivering under tight time pressures.

Case Study: Newcastle Airport Control Tower

Case Study: Newcastle Airport Control Tower

40 Custom Tension Pleated Blinds for Newcastle Airport Control Tower

Client: Newcastle International Airport
Location: Newcastle upon Tyne
Sector: Aviation – Air Traffic Control
Scope: 40 Bespoke Tension Pleated Blinds
Project Status: Delivered to Spec, On Time

The Project

We were commissioned to design and install 40 custom tension pleated blinds for Newcastle International Airport’s Air Traffic Control Tower. This wasn’t a straightforward job – the tower’s unique architecture and operational restrictions made it one of the most complex installations we’ve ever delivered.


What the Client Needed

The brief was simple but critical: shading and light control in an environment where visibility is paramount. The blinds needed to perform flawlessly to reduce glare, enhance comfort, and maintain clear sightlines for air traffic controllers at all times.


The Challenge

The tower’s design created a unique technical challenge: the windows are narrower at the top than the bottom. This meant the blinds had to operate in reverse, raising issues with tension and stability. Getting them to stay in place was no small feat.


How We Overcame It

Our team engineered a bespoke solution using:

  • Maximum tension throughout each blind system
  • Reinforced top bars for durability
  • Discreet magnetic strips to keep blinds secure

We worked closely with the client throughout, being completely transparent about the technical hurdles. To build confidence, we produced working samples that were tested and signed off before full manufacture began.


Working in a Live Air Traffic Control Tower

This wasn’t just a technical project – it was also about precision planning. Working in one of the UK’s busiest control towers meant strict security measures:

  • All staff were vetted and security checked
  • Passports had to be presented at each entry
  • Access was tightly restricted and visits limited

To meet these requirements, we planned every step of the installation around an agreed programme of works, ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and minimal disruption to airport operations.


The Result

The new blinds have transformed the tower environment, delivering:

✅ Glare reduction
✅ Improved visibility for controllers
✅ Greater comfort in a high-pressure workplace

The client praised not only the quality of the finished product but also our communication, professionalism, and how smoothly the installation was managed.


The Bigger Picture

This project highlights our ability to deliver bespoke blind solutions for even the most complex environments. From innovative design to meticulous project management, we can adapt to buildings where standard systems simply won’t work.


Ready for the Next One

If you’ve got a project that demands a tailored shading solution – whether it’s an airport, a commercial office, or a uniquely shaped building – we’ve got the expertise to deliver.

Get in touch with our team today to discuss how we can design, manufacture, and install blinds that meet your exact requirements.
