- Bifold specialists: Custom-tracked for large openings.
- Certified installation: Fitted by the Shutter Envy team.

FAQ AboutBlindScreen.
Common questions about BlindScreen® blackout and fly screens.
- How much does BlindScreen® cost?
- Because every BlindScreen® is custom-made to fit your specific window or bifold door dimensions, pricing varies. Factors include the width of the opening, the type of configuration (slim or dual-track), and the fabrics chosen. We provide a fixed, honest quote during your home consultation so you know the exact investment with no hidden fees.
- Does it work as a fly screen?
- Yes. One of the standout features of the BlindScreen® system is the ability to include an integrated insect screen alongside your choice of blackout or privacy fabric. The ultra-fine mesh allows you to keep your bifold or patio doors wide open to enjoy the summer breeze while keeping flies, wasps and other pests out. When not in use, the mesh retracts completely out of sight.
- How quickly can you fit it?
- We aim for a fast turnaround from your initial survey to professional installation — typically around 14 days for BlindScreen® orders, subject to specification. As a local Leicestershire team we keep lead times sensible compared with national chains.
- Is BlindScreen® better for energy saving than standard blinds?
- BlindScreen® is independently proven to reduce heat loss by up to 49%. The unique honeycombed cellular structure of the blackout fabric creates an air barrier that traps heat in winter and helps keep rooms cooler in summer — far more effective than many traditional roller or venetian blinds.
- Will it fit my specific type of home?
- Yes. BlindScreen® is versatile. It is a favourite for large bifold and sliding patio doors as a fly screen, and equally effective on standard bedroom windows for total blackout. Slimline frames ensure a discreet fit on almost any window or door type.
