Made to measure blinds

Hello,

Does anyone know anywhere good for this? We're looking for Roman blinds but our window is just under 2 and a half metres wide! We live in London, I was thinking of checking out John Lewis but any recommendations would be appreciated,

Thanks :)

    You could try Corbie as they do bespoke sizes. They were the only ones I could find for blackout rollers for patio doors.

    two and a half meters might be a bit big for one blind so you might have to split it into two

  • Hi there,

    Dont know if these people could help, they are based in Milton Keynes, but don't know if they could send them by post/courier. I have just had some bespoke ones made and fitted by them, great prices, one of my windows was 8" 6! wide, so give them a ring www.universal-blinds.co.uk
