Why Buy Blinds Locally in Edinburgh?
You can buy blinds in three ways: from a national online retailer, from a high-street shop that orders them in, or from a local manufacturer like us who measures, makes and fits them in-house. Only one of those leaves you with a single accountable team if something is not right.
Online blinds look cheap on the headline price. The reality: you measure yourself, you fit them yourself, and most online warranties exclude installation errors. A single mismeasure means a replacement at your own cost. High-street shops mark up products manufactured elsewhere and rely on third-party fitters, adding a middleman to every problem.
Buying from Summerside Blinds Edinburgh means one team owns the entire job, from the first measurement to the final fitting. If anything ever needs adjusting, we come back. That is what 50 years in Edinburgh looks like.

Every quote is bespoke because every window is different. Here are the kinds of jobs we do most weeks across Edinburgh and central Scotland.
Edinburgh Tenement Bay Window
A three- or five-section bay window in a Victorian or Georgian tenement, typically Marchmont, Bruntsfield, Morningside, Stockbridge or Leith. We fit individual blinds into each section of the bay for a clean recess-mounted finish that lets you control each window independently. Roller and roman blinds are both popular here.
Full Flat or Family Home
Mixed product across rooms: blackout roller blinds in bedrooms, moisture-resistant in kitchen and bathrooms, statement romans or venetians in living and dining rooms. We measure every window in one visit and quote the whole job as a single price, including fitting.
New Build or Recent Renovation
Standard rectangular windows and large patio doors in newer Edinburgh developments. Perfect fit blinds are popular here because they clip into uPVC frames without drilling. We can also handle bifold doors and large feature windows that off-the-shelf sizes do not cover.
Rental Property or HMO
Fire-retardant fabrics meeting BS 5867 are required in HMO accommodations and many rentals. We quote on durable, easy-clean products that handle tenant turnover and meet compliance. Multi-property landlords can book a single survey across multiple addresses.

Buying Blinds in Edinburgh: FAQ

You deal with one accountable team from quote to installation, and there is no risk of self-measuring errors that void online warranties. We have manufactured blinds in our Leith workshop for over 50 years.
Online blinds appear cheaper on the headline price but the real cost adds up: you measure yourself (one mistake means a replacement at your own cost), you fit them yourself, and most online warranties exclude installation errors. Buying locally includes professional measuring, professional fitting, and a guarantee that covers the whole job.
