Blinds & Shutters Prices in Sydney 2026: Cost Table and Price List

Prices are as published by blind and shutter suppliers, installers and cost guides, fetched in November 2026. Most of those sources do not state a GST basis; the fully fitted plantation shutter figures include GST. Every band rests on at least two independent sources. The sources do not support separate city prices, so Sydney shows the national bands.

How Blinds & Shutters Costs Vary Across Sydney

The bands are the same across Sydney; what changes between suburbs is the window stock, the sun and the outdoor living space, which moves a job between rows.

• Inner West and the eastern terraces - Paddington, Glebe, Newtown and Balmain terraces have tall, narrow sash windows where timber venetians at $300–$600 or plantation shutters at $450–$750 per window are common choices.
• North Shore and Hills District family homes - Larger houses in Chatswood, Hornsby and Castle Hill carry more windows, so the count matters more than the product; blockout rollers at $150–$350 per window are the usual bedroom choice.
• Western Sydney - Homes in Penrith, Blacktown and Campbelltown that face hot western sun often look at external roller shutters at $400–$850 per window, or honeycomb blinds at $200–$450 for an insulating layer inside.
• Apartments and the coast - Units in Pyrmont, Parramatta and Bondi lean on vertical blinds at $150–$350 for sliding doors and a motorised straight-drop blind at $1,200–$2,500 per blind to close in a balcony.

What Sydney Blinds & Shutters Jobs Actually Cost

Three Sydney jobs priced from this page's rows. Each line names the row it draws on; your own quote prices your windows.

Internal Blinds and Curtains: Blinds & Shutters Cost in Sydney by Type

Inside the house the price follows the blind type. A custom roller blind is $150–$350 per window and an aluminium or PVC venetian $150–$350; a vertical blind is $150–$350. A timber venetian with a 50 mm slat runs $300–$600, a honeycomb (cellular) blind $200–$450, a double day/night roller $180–$400 and a custom Roman blind $250–$500, typically $420.

Sydney buyers usually choose by room: rollers and venetians for bedrooms and home offices, Roman blinds at $250–$500 where a softer fabric look is wanted, and honeycomb blinds at $200–$450 where an insulating air pocket matters on a cold or hot window.

In an apartment, inside-mounted blinds suit the reveal and vertical blinds at $150–$350 cover wide sliding doors. Double day/night rollers at $180–$400 put a sheer and a blockout on the one bracket, so a bedroom gets both without curtains.

Curtains sit beside blinds rather than inside them: made-to-measure curtains are $300–$600 per window and S-fold sheers $400–$1,200. Motorising an internal blind adds $150–$350 per blind for a battery or retrofit motor.

Plantation and Roller Shutters: Blinds & Shutters Cost in Sydney

Plantation shutters in PVC or basswood are priced two ways: $300–$800 per square metre installed, or $450–$750 per window for a standard window of about 1200 x 1200 mm, fully fitted. External window roller shutters are a different product - an aluminium curtain that rolls down outside the glass - at $400–$850 per window with a manual winder and $700–$1,200 with a motor.

Plantation shutters suit the period homes of the Inner West and Eastern Suburbs, where the louvres can be angled to keep privacy at street level. Measure first: windows close to the 1200 x 1200 mm standard are priced per window at $450–$750, while bay windows and tall doors are priced by area at $300–$800 per square metre.

External roller shutters are a security and heat product more than a decorating one. A western-facing bedroom in Penrith or Blacktown is the typical Sydney job, at $400–$850 per window manual or $700–$1,200 motorised, and a service call with a minor repair is $120–$250.

Outdoor Blinds, Motorisation and Repairs: Blinds & Shutters Cost in Sydney

Outdoor blinds are priced by type: a manual track-guided (zip) blind is $300–$450 per square metre and a motorised straight-drop outdoor roller blind $1,200–$2,500 per blind with the motor. Clear PVC cafe blinds are quoted per blind by size; no current source states a typical figure, so they are not a row here. Repairs are their own rows: a blind restring, chain or clutch repair is $110–$218 per job and a roller shutter service call with a minor fix $120–$250. Fitting a blind you bought yourself is $40–$150 per window.

Outdoor blinds in Sydney close in decks, alfresco areas and balconies. Zip blinds run in side channels, so they hold their place in wind better than a free-hanging blind; they are priced by area at $300–$450 per square metre. A motorised straight-drop blind is $1,200–$2,500 per blind, and a clear PVC cafe blind, quoted by size, keeps the view on a balcony.

On a coastal home in Bondi, Manly or Cronulla, ask what the brackets, channels and fixings are made of, because salt air is hard on metal. Strata buildings may also have rules on what can be fixed to a balcony, so check with the owners corporation before ordering.

What Affects Blinds & Shutters Costs in Sydney

In Sydney the product, the number of windows and whether a motor or an outdoor fitting is involved decide where a quote lands, far more than the suburb.
