Things to Consider
-
ℹ
Some blind styles may allow a small amount of light around the edges or between louvres. Choosing a Perfect Fit blind helps minimise this because the blind sits neatly inside a custom frame for a cleaner, more light-controlled finish.
Perfect for Anyone Who Struggles to Sleep with Light
Only available on selected styles such as Bloc blinds, lantern blinds, pleated blinds, pleated roof blinds, roller blinds, and Roman blinds. We have a wide range of sample books to explore in our showroom so you can find the perfect look and finish. Blackout blinds are also excellent for keeping heat out in summer and retaining warmth in winter, helping create a comfortable environment all year round.
For blinds, a professional measure is recommended
To ensure a perfect fit and smooth operation, we recommend a professional measure for all blinds. Accurate measurements prevent costly mistakes and guarantee the best outcome for inside or outside recess installations. Our free measuring service and no-obligation quotation are included.

Jen Hewitt2026-04-21 I have used Blind Trader a couple of times. Mitch and Robert offered a brilliant service from measuring to fitting.They are competitively priced, have a fantastic range of blinds for all your needs. I am delighted with mine. Lee Bennallack2026-04-19 I am very impressed with this business the whole process from visiting the store to fitting was superb. After getting costings from a well known and heavily advertised big company, I wanted to compare with a local Bicester business. Thank goodness I did because the difference in price was jaw dropping, Blind Trader was significantly less and yet delivered an excellent customer experience with a quality product. The staff who came to my home to measure and then fit were just faultless, they advised on the product and how to look after the blinds etc. I would not hesitate to recommend this business and indeed I already have. Just an excellent local business with the customer at the heart of what they do. Thank you Marta Dziedzicka2026-04-16 Blind Trader is a family and local firm and you definitely gonna benefit from it ! I got my blinds fitted today by Rob, and liaised earlier with Mitch when it came to the quote, invoice and measurement. Profesional service and beautiful blinds for affordable price ! :) I am considering further orders actually :) Excellent job today Rob ! Best Marta from Bicester, Janice Bruce2026-04-10 We recently had our kitchen floor and blinds replaced by these guys. They were punctual and delivered exactly what they said they would. Really pleased with the finished products and would certainly use them again. Lesley Pearson2026-03-27 Great service, quick and efficient. Very satisfied with fitted blind, so much so, will be ordering a 2nd. Would recommend. PiperG2026-03-13 From the initial survey and quotation call from Mitchell, my shutters arrived withing the time frame quoted Rob arrived to fit my 6 shutters at the agreed time and completed within three hours. The shutters seemed to open up my room as there is no need for curtains, the increase in light to my living room was much needed! Rob walked round to explain fully how the shutters works and how best to maintain them and to ensure that I was happy with his work. I would highly recommend the BlindTrader team Emma Stockford2026-03-13 Really pleased with our shutters. Mitchell was fab at coming out, measuring and quoting for us. Then we had Rob come to fit the shutters, professional, quick, cleaned up and a great finish. Really pleased. Sue Keal2026-03-12 From estimate to fitting the service was great. I'm so pleased with my new blinds. Thank you Diane Upstone2026-03-11 Absolutely first class service, from start to finish, Mitch for his knowledge and advice for blinds, the blinds were fitted perfectly and all the guys in the shop are lovely and friendly and all very helpful . Catherine Golledge2026-03-03 Couldn’t recommend Blind Trader more - Mitch is fantastic and I should’ve listened to him the first time he came to measure recommending I should go for the full house… I’ve now ordered three times! Rob who fitted them for us was brilliant. Have had no issues and we get so many compliments from visitors about them. I’ve now run out of windows without shutters but will be recommending these guys to everyone!
