Wood or metal poles? Louvred or plain shutters? Roller or roman blinds? Light or dark colours? Manually or electrically operated tracks? Traditional or contemporary designs? Good, basic products or no expense spared? Tomorrow or next week?

There are so many options. So unless you already know precisely what you want, we'll ask you about the style of your décor and the function of your room. We'll also want to know how much the product will be used, whether your priority is beauty, privacy or shade (for example) and, not least, how much you want to spend.

Then we'll explain what's possible and what's not. After all, since you'll probably use and look at products you buy at The Pole Company for several years, we'll do everything we can to help you make the right decision first time. And if you're in a hurry, we have plenty in stock or ready for immediate delivery.

Ultimately it usually comes down to personal taste, but there are often technical considerations too. We'll guide you through the maze of practical and aesthetic options and can usually get you swatches of blind fabrics, or sections of wood or metal poles. Sometimes we can lend you full-size samples to take home.

Don't forget that on placing an order, customers within ten miles of our shop can take advantage of our free measuring service - if you're further away, there's a minimal charge. Just call us for a quotation.
