TRACK DESIGN
Why Track-Guided Beats Standard Rollers
It’s the track design that turns a blockout fabric into a genuine blockout blind. Most “blockout” roller blinds on the market are conventional rollers — the fabric drops freely between brackets, leaving 10-20mm gaps down each side and another gap at the bottom. Sunlight finds those gaps. Privacy follows the same path. Ziptrak® takes a different approach: vertical aluminium side tracks run the full height of the opening, and a continuous welded spline on each fabric edge locks the blind into the tracks.
That single design choice has a cascade of benefits. The fabric stays under consistent tension at every height, so it doesn’t ripple, sag or pull away from the window frame. There are no cords, chains or ropes — making the blind safer in homes with children or pets, and removing the most common point of failure on traditional rollers. The bottom bar sits cleanly against the sill rather than swinging in front of it. And because the system is spring-balanced, you can lift or lower with one finger and the blind stays exactly where you stop it.
Track colours are available in Black, White, and Anodised for a seamless integration with your home or commercial space.

FAQs
Question & Answers
Have questions about Ziptrak® Blockout Roller Blinds? Find answers to the most common questions below.
How much light do Ziptrak® blockout roller blinds actually block?
The blockout fabric is fully opaque, and the patented sealed side tracks eliminate the gaps where light usually leaks past a standard roller blind. Together they deliver genuine room-darkening performance — typically far closer to total darkness than conventional rollers achieve.
What makes track-guided different from a standard roller blind?
Standard rollers leave gaps down each side and at the bottom because the fabric drops freely between brackets. Ziptrak® welds a continuous spline to each fabric edge and runs it inside sealed aluminium tracks — closing those gaps and giving you true side-to-side coverage for light and privacy.
Are blockout roller blinds safer than corded blinds?
Yes. Ziptrak® blockout roller blinds have no cords, chains or ropes — they use a spring-balanced track-guided system instead. That removes the entanglement risk that comes with traditional corded blinds, making them safer in homes with children or pets.
Do blockout roller blinds help with insulation and energy costs?
Yes. A heavier blockout fabric combined with sealed side tracks creates an insulating layer against the glass, helping reduce heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. The effect is most noticeable on large windows or rooms with western exposure.
What colour and finish options are available?
Fabric colours span warm whites, neutrals and deep charcoals to suit most interiors. Track colours are available in black, white, and anodised for a seamless integration with your home or commercial space. Your retailer can show you the current fabric and track range with samples.
