Day and night blinds — also known as zebra or vision blinds — are a sophisticated, dual-fabric way to control light in the mix of new apartments, university buildings and offices that now define Elephant and Castle. Made-to-measure and professionally fitted by Kelly's Blinds, they let the same window soften daylight in the morning and provide full privacy in the evening, without swapping between two separate blinds.
In new residential towers around Elephant Park, that rhythm supports better sleep and a calmer start to the day; in offices, media suites and university spaces near Strata, it keeps screens glare-free while still allowing daylight to filter through open-plan areas. Every installation is carried out by our own fitting team, not a subcontractor, so the mechanism runs smoothly from the first day.
Every day and night blinds installation is measured on site and completed by our own team, not a subcontractor working to a fixed day rate, so the dual-fabric vision layer performs exactly as specified near Strata and still looks sharp well beyond the first year.
Lead times around Strata can move quickly as new phases of the development complete, so we keep enough dual-fabric vision layer stock in common finishes to turn a straightforward day and night blinds installation around without the long waits some larger suppliers quote as standard.
Made-to-measure day and night blinds that are professionally fitted can have a meaningful impact on a property's energy efficiency. Their multi-layered design helps reduce heat loss in winter, lowering heating costs while providing complete privacy for residents and staff. In summer, the sheer layer prevents excessive heat build-up, reducing the need for air conditioning across the newer, heavily glazed buildings in the area.
Beyond energy efficiency, expert fitting ensures precise light control that supports the well-being of everyone using the space. The soft, gentle diffusion of daylight has a calming effect that suits study spaces, breakout areas and residential living rooms alike, helping to create an atmosphere that works for both concentration and rest.
Day and night blinds offer a delicate way to manage brightness while providing complete privacy when the fabric layers are closed together — a useful combination for ground-floor units and street-facing apartments around the regeneration area. Our professional fitting service ensures every installation is handled precisely, so the dual-fabric mechanism keeps working smoothly for years.
Fabric and mechanism quality matter more in a fast-growing area like this than almost anywhere else in London, simply because of how much daily use each day and night blinds installation gets in a densely occupied building near Elephant Park. We specify components rated for genuine repeated use rather than the lighter-duty parts found in flat-pack alternatives, so the mechanism keeps operating smoothly long after the initial fit-out gloss has worn off.
That same durability standard applies whether the day and night blinds installation is going into a private apartment, a shared office floor or a public-facing reception. Every installation is carried out with precision by our own team and backed by our quality fitting guarantee, giving residents, tenants and facilities managers one less thing to worry about as the building around them keeps changing.

Posted on Google Linda Lovely guys, very efficient.Posted on Google Nayia Yiakoumaki From enquiry to installation, we have been very happy with Kelly's Blinds. Marek who was our first point of contact, is very professional and reliable, and so were his team who came to fit the blinds. Much more affordable than the bigger brands and the blinds look great.Posted on Google Natasha Peachey Kelly's have provided blinds for both our private and rented accommodation and years on they are still looking good. I had to replace a couple of brackets recently and their service was still quick, efficient and very helpful. Happily recommend this company.Posted on Google Jacky Healy I can highly recommend Kelly's Blinds, having used them many times now. Huge selection, excellent quality and great customer service from start to finish. Best of all, they come out to measure and fit, all included in the price, so you are guaranteed of a perfect finish. Just to add - 3 years after the original installation I had a slight problem with one of the blinds. Kelly's came out the very next day to sort it out, and at no charge to myself - you can't get better customer service than that!Posted on Google UK Succulent Great experience. The blinds I bought are excellent quality and they even installed them to be automated. Would recommendPosted on Google Andy Cameron I’ve used Kelly Blinds several times over the years and I am happy to recommend them. This time we had some vertical blinds and roller blinds installed, a great selection and fast professional service from the quote to the installation. At a great price too. I’m about to use them again for a rental property. Thank you Marek and the teamPosted on Google Abrar Mirza Highly recommend these guys. Their products are top quality. Had blinds fitted over 5 years ago and they’re still operating superb. Very professional, efficient and great customer care. Would definitely use them again.Posted on Google Alex 100% highly recommend. I got a few quotes from big names likes Hillary’s, but they significantly higher and I have to say; clearly are trading on brand rather than value. Kelly’s service and product are both amazing. I bought my blinds 5 years ago and couldn’t be happier. The first time I needed help was recently and they came round and sorted it straight away. I purchased 3 custom electric roller blinds and a manual one (for my balcony door) for the main room and a blackout electric blind for my bedroom with a home hub. They gave amazing advice, are super professional, and incredibly easy to deal with. I’d highly recommend them.Posted on Google Aaron Gaide We’re in a new build space and incrementally working on separate rooms. These guys have provided great blinds and very fair pricing. Instillation teams were professional, fast and did really quality work. Highly recommend for projects large or small.Posted on Google Tushar Adhikary Update(2026): Again have to call out the superb and quick customer service these folks have. Any small change or fix you need and these guys are there to help out. Highly recommend them. The quality and workmanship exceeded my expectations. I’m extremely satisfied with the outcome. Glad I went with them. Look no further if are looking for blinds/curtains. Update: I had a minor thing to fix with my blinds and the customer support was absolutely wonderful. They were quick and swift to help. This is the kind of customer obsession that makes these people better than the rest. Look no further.
Also known as zebra or vision blinds, they combine two fabric layers in one mechanism, letting the same window soften daylight in the morning and give full privacy in the evening — ideal for the new residential towers around Elephant Park where one window has to do both jobs.
The multi-layered design reduces heat loss in winter, helping lower heating costs, while the sheer layer prevents excessive heat build-up in summer — a meaningful benefit for the heavily glazed buildings now common across the area.
Yes — in offices, media suites and university buildings near Strata, the vision layer keeps screens glare-free while still allowing daylight into open-plan areas, so the same product works for study spaces, breakout areas and residential living rooms alike.
Every blind is measured on site and fitted made to measure by our own team, so the dual-fabric mechanism runs smoothly from day one. The service is backed by our quality fitting guarantee, and we keep common finishes in stock to avoid long lead times.

Elephant and Castle's regeneration has created a genuinely mixed community across SE1 and SE17: new residential towers around Elephant Park sit beside campus-style commercial blocks, university buildings and retail podiums. Students, young professionals, families in new-build apartments, and public sector and media tenants around Strata all share the same streets and, often, the same glazing specification.
That combination of residential and institutional glazing is exactly where day and night blinds earn their place — flexible enough for a bedroom window that needs both morning light and evening privacy, and precise enough for a meeting room or study space that needs glare control without losing daylight altogether.
For facilities teams and letting agents, that means a fitting partner who can adapt to a building that is still, in effect, being finished — coordinating around other trades near Elephant Park rather than expecting a fully settled site.
It also means demand is genuinely mixed rather than seasonal: new occupiers are moving into buildings near Elephant Park throughout the year, not just at the start of a typical moving season, which keeps our local fitting schedule busy on a rolling basis.
That pace of change also affects how a fitting service needs to operate day to day: access arrangements, building management contacts and even street names around Elephant Park can shift as each phase completes, so a supplier that only ever worked from an old site plan quickly falls behind.
As Elephant and Castle continues to fill in around Elephant Park and Strata, Kelly's Blinds remains a consistent point of contact for day and night blinds fitting, regardless of which developer or landlord is managing the building.
