Why Abacus use British products
At Abacus we source all our quality fabrics and components from leading British manufacturers, because we believe them to be the best in the blind trade.
We manufacture Louvolite vertical and roller systems for you here in Kent — using British components we trust to outperform imported alternatives on durability and finish.
British Louvolite vertical headrail system
We supply you with a British Louvolite vertical blind headrail system that we manufacture for you — rather than a cheaper overseas alternative — because it is built to last.
- Sleek curved headrail — unobtrusive, versatile, robust and designed to last many years.
- Quality stainless steel and aluminium with corrosion-resistant finishes.
- 10-year life cycle tested for long-term reliability.
- Tracks supplied up to 5000mm wide in White, Brown, Black, Aluminium or Champagne.
- Fully enclosed end caps which house the operating cord and chain.
- UV-stabilised prime plastics to guard against ultraviolet degradation.
- Direct-drive tilt operation for positive control when opening and closing.
- Self-aligning carrier trucks with limit stops allowing louvres to rotate to 185°.
- Spacing controlled by stainless steel spacer links for extra durability.
British Louvolite roller blind system
Our British-made roller systems are life-cycle tested and engineered for smooth, dependable operation — including options for larger, heavier blinds.
- Manufactured in the UK using aluminium, mild steel, acetate and glass-filled nylon plastics.
- All Louvolite roller systems are 10-year life cycle tested.
- Unique bracket securing pin for safety after installation.
- Cassette systems in white, cream, grey or black — or co-ordinated with fabric.
- Guide-wire system holds fabric parallel to the window when operated.
- Gated sprocket wheel for smooth operation; double spring option for heavy fabrics.
