What are Roman blinds?
The ultimate in fabric luxury. Roman blinds fold into soft, horizontal pleats when raised. They bring texture or design to any room, offering a cosy, layered look when pulled up and complete privacy when fully dropped.
A Statement Piece in Fabric and Design Roman blinds are a truly luxurious and timeless choice that injects texture and design into your home, suitable for both classic and contemporary interiors. They create a cosy element and look fantastic as a bold statement piece or a softer focal point in neutral tones. Even when raised, the fabric gathers beautifully, providing an elegant layered look at the top of the window, maintaining visual interest in your room. When fully dropped, they provide privacy and perfectly display the quality of the textured fabric or beautiful pattern you choose.

Lining, Motorisation, and Finishing Touches
As a manufacturer and supplier, Abacus Blinds offers expertly made-to-measure Roman blinds installed by our professional, DBS-checked staff across Kent. We offer several key options to customise your blinds for function and aesthetics: Key Options & Features:
-
Premium Blackout Lining
We highly recommend our premium bonded blackout fabric lining. This choice enhances the light block and creates a fuller, more luxurious fold to the blind (note: blackout is never total due to light ingress around the edges).
-
Standard Lining
A standard bonded lining is available if blackout is not required for your space.
-
Fascia Cassette Option
The blinds can be ordered with or without a decorative fascia cassette at the top for a clean, finished look.
-
Motorisation
Activate your Roman blind from the comfort of your living room sofa with our smooth, reliable motorisation option.
-
Bespoke Fitting
Our free consultation and fitting service ensures your Roman blinds are measured and installed perfectly to bring a tailored finish to your room.
Roman blinds — common questions
Everything Kent homeowners and businesses ask us before booking a free home visit.
-
Q1 How do Roman blinds add a luxurious element to a room?
Roman blinds use a significant amount of quality fabric that folds into soft, horizontal pleats when raised. This unique style adds texture, depth, and a bespoke, tailored finish that elevates the interior design of any space.
-
Q2 Is a blackout lining necessary for Roman blinds?
We usually recommend a premium bonded blackout lining as it gives the blind a more luxurious feel and helps to substantially darken the room. However, a standard bonded lining is available if maximum light block is not your priority.
-
Q3 Do Roman blinds provide total blackout?
While the blackout fabric we use is highly effective, no blind can offer total blackout as light will always ingress around the edges of the window recess. It will, however, greatly help darken your space.
-
Q4 Can Roman blinds be operated electronically?
Yes, we can motorise our Roman blind range, allowing you to easily activate the blind using a remote control from the comfort of your chair.
-
Q5 What is the benefit of a fascia cassette?
A fascia cassette is an optional cover for the mechanism at the top of the blind. It provides a very clean, finished, and highly aesthetic look, seamlessly integrating the blind into your window space.
