About

As Leicester’s oldest awning and window blind makers we guarantee the highest quality products, and good old fashioned customer service that is second to none

We are the quintessential family business that has evolved from one man with a motorcycle and sidecar, to a professional and modern multi product window blind and awning manufacturer and installer whilst still retaining the values that have been passed down through the generations

We offer a very personalised local service and are very protective of our reputation, always striving to ensure our clients appreciate both our service and the quality of our products

Established in 1887, by Mr E.A Barlow, the company flourished and in 1927 he felt he had earned a more restful time, deciding to retire and pass the business on to someone else’s capable hands

Those capable hands belonged to Frank Coleman, and the company has been successfully run by the Coleman family ever since

Had some blinds replaced and new blinds fitted too. Great communication throughout from first visit to completion of the works. Additionally, the business arrived promptly, worked hard, protected the property to deal with any messes made. Would be happy to recommend them to friends and family and use them again for any future needs.

We had blinds fitted by Barlow blinds. The service was really good and efficient. Paul who came to fit the blinds was friendly and professional. He has done an excellent job of fitting blinds.

I had a set of Venetian blinds and some INTU Venetians installed in my home by Paul and Matt. Both arrived on time, were polite and professional and completed the job to a high standard with little to no mess or fuss. I am very happy with their work and my new blinds. Cannot thank them enough.

We have just had a very large awning with light bar fitted. Three men arrived and took four hours to fit it. They were very professional and totally competent. There was a slight hiccup which was immediately rectified. At all stages we were kept informed and the fitters were extremely pleasant. I would certainly recommend this company.

Our new blind was fitted on the day and time arranged and was to the price agreed. The young man who did the job was polite and the job was carried out in a professional manner. All mess was hoovered and packing taken away.

Superb service from outset to completion. The first port of call was to the receptionist and she was marvelous and let me know when they would be coming. Steve attended after we had received a picture recognition letter for security. He provided an acceptable quotation. We had another call to give the date a fitter would attend. Paul M called in advance on the day, he was very kind, helpful and thoughtful and would definitely use them again.

Barlow Blinds installed a kitchen blind for me, and did a very good, quick job. On the day they called to ask to come earlier than planned, which suited me well.

Just had my blinds fitted with Barlow Blinds, Paul was amazing. Good work ethics, arrived on time, polite, helpful, respectful around my home, and a perfectionist made a few tweaks just to make sure it looked great and worked well. The service from start to finish have been amazing. I’m a very happy customer, will recommend to friends, family and will return for future services.
