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

Could Not Have Been Better Service

The measuring and materials choice was very good, a bit of advice when requested but unhurried and thorough. The fitting was very efficiently done, a minimum of time and a perfect finished result. Could not be more satisfied.

Very high quality. I had all the house done including 2 roller blinds all in the same fabric. The man was very good at this job would highly recommend them will get more when needed. Great service.

Very professional service. Everything went exactly to plan. I was kept advised of times and dates of visits for measuring ordering and fitting. The blinds I had removed (and taken away for disposal) were also fitted by this company 20 years ago and have worn very well. Only changed them for decor reasons.

Barlow Blinds are our first choice for window blinds. We visited their showroom where their stock selection is very comprehensive. Staff there are very helpful and not pushy, appointment made for a member of staff to measure without obligation price given. Fitters prompt all appointments confirmed and prompt.
