FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
what does "reveal fit" mean?
Window treatments can be installed in different ways dependent on what may best suit the window. "Reveal Fit" refers to the product being installed inside the window opening that is recessed from the wall (the "Reveal"). Reveal Fit window treatments are becoming increasingly popular as they fit snugly into the architrave.
do you offer motorisation?
Motorisation for window treatments are growing in popularity. We currently only offer this for our Internal Roller Blinds and External Zipscreens. Our friendly team members are experienced and knowledgeable on motorised window treatments and can assist you with any enquiries you may have. Get in touch over the phone on 1800 133 278 today!
how do external blinds/awnings regulate temperature?
External Blinds and Awnings are a great way to insulate your home. Keeping them up during the daytime invites sunshine and warmth to pass through, and closing them in the evening can help keep the warmth in.
They can also keep the heat out during summer when open during cooler parts of the day, and letting them down as the temperature increases.
Can my zipscreen withstand severe weather conditions?
Zipscreens are able to withstand winds up to 140km/hr. Although the side retention systems can resist significant winds, it is important to ensure your External Blinds are retracted during severe storms to prevent potential damage.
What does "face fit" mean?
"Face Fit" refers to window treatments that are designed to be fitted to the outside face of the window architrave. Face Fit products can be installed on top of the window and will extend outward from the wall. Face Fit installation can ensure the product is properly aligned, especially when the windows are uneven or of an older design-style.

Absolutely! You may send us measurements and product details via email at sales@northsideshutters.com.au
Our team will endeavour to provide you with estimate pricing as soon as possible. Please note, however, if you wish to proceed with your quotation, a Check Measure appointment will need to be completed prior to acceptance.
what is a cassette?
A cassette is a housing component that is fitted to cover the top rail/roller of your External Blinds. Not only do cassettes provide a neat finish, but they aid in blocking out light while keeping your External Blind sturdy.
are your blinds australian made?
Yes, all of our Internal Blinds and External Awnings are Australian Made. They are manufactured locally on the Sunshine Coast.
will my external blinds protect my outdoor area from rain?
When correctly installed, our External Blinds and Awnings are a great way to reduce the impact of the outdoors - such as rain - to your property. A great benefit includes not having to move your outdoor furniture if you are looking to enclose your alfresco/patio area with our External Blinds.
