Double roller blinds combine two fabrics — sheer and blackout — within a single, streamlined mechanism, giving precise control over light and privacy throughout the day. They suit Kidbrooke Village's new apartments and home offices equally well, wherever a single window needs to serve very different purposes at different times.
Kelly's Blinds fits every double roller blind made to measure, so both layers operate smoothly within the same compact headrail, across the village's various phases.
Because Kidbrooke Village is still absorbing new stock every few months, we treat each double roller blinds installation as a fresh measurement rather than reusing a template — the dual sheer-and-blackout layer has to match the actual window, not an assumed standard size.
A number of our double roller blinds enquiries come from residents who've just moved into Waterlily Court or Lily Residences and want the finish sorted before they properly settle in.
Double roller blinds give Kidbrooke apartments a sheer cloth for the day and a blackout cloth for the night in a single compact headrail. That suits living rooms that face a courtyard and bedrooms that double as a desk, including homes in Waterlily Court and Lily Residences where one window has to work both ways.
During the day, the sheer layer filters natural light to create a pleasant, airy atmosphere while protecting furniture from UV rays without losing the view over Cator Park. In the evening, or when full privacy is needed, the blackout layer provides complete light blockage.
Beyond light control, the fabrics contribute to temperature regulation: the blackout layer acts as a thermal barrier, helping retain indoor heat in winter and reduce heat build-up in summer, enhancing the energy efficiency of the space.
Fabric and mechanism quality matter more in a fast-growing development than in an established street, simply because of how much daily use each installation gets in a busy family home. We specify components rated for genuine repeated use rather than the lighter-duty parts found in flat-pack alternatives.
That same durability standard applies whether the installation is going into a Central Gardens apartment or a Navigator Place rental. Every installation is carried out with precision by our own team and backed by our quality fitting guarantee.
A double roller is not two independent blinds squeezed into one window. The sheer and the blackout are chosen together: openness of the day fabric, density of the night fabric, and colours that can sit one in front of the other without a clash when both are down.
In Kidbrooke the day cloth is often a screen or a privacy sheer, because rooms overlook paths and other blocks. The night cloth is a true blackout in bedrooms and a dim-out in living rooms that only need evening cover.
Each cloth has its own control. We set the chain sides so they are not tangled, and we set the drops so the sheer can remain in use while the blackout is parked in the headrail. That is the whole point of the product on a window that changes job between morning and night.
Motorisation is available where the double barrel sits out of easy reach, more often in the taller phases than in a townhouse bedroom. Power and grouping are agreed with the same care as any electric blind.

Double roller blinds combine a sheer fabric and a blackout fabric within a single, compact headrail, so one window can be bright and airy during the day and fully private in the evening — useful for the village’s new apartments and home offices without the cost of fitting two separate blinds.
The sheer layer filters daylight and protects furniture from UV during the day, then the blackout layer switches in for complete light blockage in the evening — ideal for a video call in daylight followed by a restful night’s sleep, and switching between the two takes only seconds.
Yes — the blackout layer acts as a thermal barrier, helping retain indoor heat in winter and reduce heat build-up in summer, which adds to the energy efficiency of the space. That’s a useful side benefit for a south-facing room that would otherwise get quite warm.
Every double roller blind is measured on site so both layers operate smoothly within the same headrail, with the dual sheer-and-blackout specification agreed before fitting. The installation is backed by our quality fitting guarantee, so any early teething issue with the mechanism is sorted at no extra cost.

Kidbrooke Village's newer apartments and home offices often need a single window treatment that works for very different moments in the day — bright and airy while working from home, fully private for the evening.
Double roller blinds solve that directly, and are professionally fitted to keep both layers running smoothly for years, whichever phase of the village they're going into.
For letting agents and Berkeley Living managing units across the development, that means a fitting partner who can adapt to a building that is still, in effect, being finished.
Demand is genuinely mixed rather than seasonal: new occupiers move into Kidbrooke Village throughout the year, which keeps our local fitting schedule busy on a rolling basis.
As Kidbrooke Village continues to grow, Kelly's Blinds remains a consistent point of contact for double roller blinds fitting, regardless of which developer or phase a home sits in.
New apartments with one living space opening onto a balcony or a courtyard are where a double roller earns its place: glare and a view in the daytime, privacy and darkness later. Townhouses use it more selectively, often on a bedroom that faces a lamp or a neighbour.
