Vertical Blinds Whitley Bay

At A1 Blinds, we can offer a customisable range of high-quality vertical blinds for homes in Whitley Bay and the surrounding areas. Vertical blinds are one of the most popular designs in the UK, as they’re easy to use, available in a range of fabrics, and can suit a selection of different properties. Vertical blinds can be added to both windows and doors and are available in all sizes.

Vertical blinds have clean lines, which create a welcoming ambience throughout a Whitley Bay space. These designs work well in both contemporary and traditional interior spaces. 

Vertical blinds hang down from a top rail and are formed of several slats that hang vertically. This style of blind offers an unparalleled level of flexibility as you can precisely control the slats. You can efficiently close, open, or adjust the blind, making your space as private or as bright as you want it to be.

At A1 Blinds, we believe every Whitley Bay space is unique. This is why we offer a diverse range of colours, patterns, and fabrics for customers to choose from. Our expert team will help you pick the right options through our home and virtual consultations. Get in touch with us today for more information and to start the blind installation process.

Benefits of Vertical Blinds

Beloved Style

Vertical blinds have been a popular installation for centuries. These sleek designs work equally well on windows and doors, neatly fitting across expansive areas of glazing. Unlike curtains, vertical blinds won’t get in the way of the sun. Enjoy a sleek-looking installation that performs as well as it looks.

Customisable Design

Our entire range of vertical blinds is made to measure as standard. This means the blinds will perfectly fit the window or door, with no light being able to sneak through the gaps. It also allows customers to choose the exact blind they want for their residential or commercial project.

Choose from a broad array of fabrics, colours, and materials. Whether you want something subtle that fits into your existing space or something that makes a bold statement, we can help. Our robust fabrics are resistant to wear and discolouration, and our blinds are less likely to fold and crease.

Flexible Control

Another benefit of vertical blinds is how much light control they give Whitley Bay customers. Vertical blinds feature adjustable slats, which allow you to achieve the perfect amount of light or privacy. Tilt and turn the blinds to create a bright and welcoming room, or close them for an almost blackout effect.

Uses for Vertical Blinds

Vertical blinds are ideal for large windows and patio doors thanks to their larger slats and vertical profile. This style of blind will add height and dimension to both the profile and your room. These designs will add a stylish flair to a window or door, offering enhanced privacy and thermal efficiency as well as creating a focal point.

Vertical blinds can also be crafted to fit any angle or at uneven heights, making these installations ideal for shaped windows. One of the benefits of this style of blind is that it flatters the proportions of any window or door shape.

Vertical blinds can be fitted into any type of workspace, from clinics to offices. They are popularly added to a range of rooms in a Whitley Bay home. Minimise glare in conservatories or orangeries, or help reduce the glare of computer screens in an office. The blackout properties of these blinds make them ideal for bedrooms, as they can block out any external light that could disturb a good night’s sleep.

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.
