Hello newbie here currently working on house reno.

Currently I cannot decide if I should install outdoor roller blind or PVC (like timber type) for my balcony. A few of my neighbours have installed the PVC type but I'm not very sure how they do it to make sure it can hold when it's windy.

If anyone has installed the outdoor PVC type, can you please let me know how you do it for your balcony?

I have signed package with a curtain shop at JB and the price they quote is quite reasonable.

Thanks!

Actually the trend now is to do polyester with foam coat at the back. its called panel blind. check this out: http://www.mingsliving.com/#!blinds/c158d

can ask the merchant to show you their panel blind. they have samples in hand.

Regardless of type, just ensure they fasten it and prevent blind from flapping during strong winds and knocking you down.

My estate wants us to remove the wooden/PVC blind as they get black after a while. Their advice is to replace with The grey partial black out kind as in the link above (http://www.mingsliving.com/#!blinds/c158d).

So now, we're considering to remove totally or to a new replacement. Anyone has good recommendations for blinds company or maybe even just for removal only as we won't be able to do it ourselves.

TIA!! =)

No one can help?

I may want to do new grey ones also. Any good recommendations?

I used to have blinds, but i changed it to curtains, the blinds were difficult to clean when dusty

No balcony at my home but I do have floor to ceiling window in my living room. Windows are north facing but get some sun on left wall in the morning and on right wall in the late afternoon. I am using curtain now (7 years old) but the cloth is dis-integrating. More dust particles on the floor where the curtain is. Should be due to the UV from the sun.

I can make a new set for a few hundred dollars but probably will do without in future.

i've installed my outdoor blinds from CK 83635326. His system for outdoor blind uses heavy duty system Japan brand.
