Duette® Silk Dim Out Alabaster Pleated Blind

If you’re a fan of a Scandi look or even minimalism then take a look at this new Duette® blind in Silk Dim Out Alabaster. You can see why it’s named after the stone you see in museum and gallery statues, that “so pale grey it’s almost white” but without that cold feel that white can sometimes have. And because it’s a Silk there’s a weave effect that adds just a hint of texture that ups that warmth level too. With a Dim Out not only do you get the benefit of reduced light level coming through but you also have that lovely colour whether your blind is raised or lowered, not to mention the choice of manual or electric control. Multi-facted blinds, ready to work in any room in your home.

Quality is something we take very seriously here at Hillarys. All our products are rigorously tested to ensure they are made to the best standards and look and fit exactly as they should. We want you to be completely satisfied with your Duette® blinds, so we offer a full 12-month warranty as assurance that our products will stand the test of time.

Cleaning Tips

Keep your Duette® blinds looking bright and fresh by using a clean, dry duster or the upholstery brush attachment on your vacuum at a reduced suction level. To avoid wrinkling or ripping the fabric, be careful not to press against the pleats too hard. If there is a little more than dust to contend with use a damp sponge dipped in lukewarm water to wipe across the pleats. Make sure the sponge ist only damp not wet and work from the top down. It's best not to use fabric conditioner on your blinds as the material can stain. Tougher marks can be removed with a specialist fabric stain remover or spray foam but please follow the manufacturer’s instructions closely, and test a small, inconspicuous area first if in doubt.

Child Safety

At Hillarys we do everything we can to make sure our products are safe for children. As a minimum, all of our blinds meet the European Standard BS EN 13120 for both performance and safety. Beyond this, safety is at the forefront of our minds right through the design process as we strive to make products that are not only stylish and high-quality, but also safe. As all our Duette® blinds are pull-cord operated, your Hillarys advisor will install a discreet little cleat or hook for the cord to wrap around, so there are no loose strings. These are fitted at a minimum height of 1.5m above the ground.

FAQ's

How much do Duette® blinds cost?

As all our blinds are made-to-measure, the total cost of your Duette® blind will depend on the specific size of your windows, any optional extras you choose such as motorised controls, transition options which allow you to choose two different Duette® fabrics within one blind, or enhanced systems such as our cord lock feature. Your advisor will provide you with a no obligation quote based on your specific requirements during your in-home appointment which will take about 45 minutes. If you are looking for blinds for an entire conservatory, your appointment will take a little longer.

Are Duette® blinds a good choice for my conservatory?

Our range of Duette® blinds are cleverly designed to help to keep the temperature down in the warmer summer months while retaining the heat once it starts to get cooler. Duette® blinds are ideal for the roof of your conservatory as they can be made to fit the different shaped windows. For the sides you can opt for more Duette® blinds in a coordinating or contrasting colour or choose from our full range of blind types.

My windows are an odd shape, will Duette® blinds work for me?

Duette® blinds can be made to almost any shape and used in roof windows too, making them a popular choice for conservatories and glass extensions.

Do Duette® blinds keep the cold out?

Our Duette® blinds are the ideal choice for keeping the cold out, due to the honeycomb structure that retains warm air and stops it escaping at your windows. Test show they can reduce heat loss by up to 55%.
