The stylish finishing touch that does a lot more than you think

If you’re shopping for roller or double roller blinds and want the neatest, cleanest finish possible — you’ll want to get to know Pelmets.

While they might seem like just an accessory, pelmets are a smart, functional upgrade that can dramatically improve the look and performance of your blinds. And when it comes to form and function in one sleek package,Pelmet 95 is hard to beat.

In this guide, we’ll unpack what Pelmet 95 is, what it does, and why it might be the finishing detail your windows need.

First Things First: What Is a Pelmet?

A pelmet is a cover that conceals the top of a roller blind, including the tube and brackets. Think of it as the crown moulding of the window world — it hides the hardware, elevates the look, and creates a more polished appearance.

But it’s not just about looks. Pelmets also help:

  • ⁠Minimise light gaps at the top of the blind
  • ⁠Reduce light bleed in blockout applications
  • ⁠Add a neat, architectural finish to the window

For roller blinds, a pelmet provides a clean, boxed-in look that hides visible roll mechanisms and fabric roll.

What Is Pelmet 95?

Pelmet 95 is iSeekBlinds premium pelmet solution, named for its 95mm high profile. It’s been purpose-built to work beautifully on single roller blinds, offering a seamless fusion of style and performance.

Crafted from powder-coated aluminium, Pelmet 95 features a clean, minimalist finish that suits both modern and classic interiors. Its 95mm height is specifically designed to fully conceal larger brackets and blind tubes, giving your window treatment a clean, architectural finish.

The pelmet includes a rear return for wall concealment and a magnetic front cover, making it easy to access the blind mechanism for maintenance or adjustments. Installation is straightforward and sleek — Pelmet 95 is designed exclusively for face-fix setups, mounting cleanly above your window.

It’s the same pelmet used by interior designers and builders to achieve that tailored, built-in look that elevates a room from functional to flawlessly styled.

Why You Might Need One

If you’re installing blockout blinds, you’ll especially appreciate the benefits of Pelmet 95.

Blockout fabrics are designed to eliminate light — but without a pelmet, light can still sneak in through the top roll. Pelmet 95 adds that crucial seal, improving darkness and privacy.

This makes a real difference in spaces where rest and relaxation are essential. In bedrooms, it helps you sleep longer without sunlight waking you up. In nurseries or kids’ rooms, it can create a more consistent nap environment. And in media rooms, it stops screen glare in its tracks.

Other reasons to consider a pelmet:

  • You want a more finished, high-end look
  • You prefer a top-fix install but still want to hide the brackets
  • Your windows are in bedrooms, nurseries, or media rooms

Simply put, if you’re going for a clean look or better light block — this is how you do it.

When You Don’t Need a Pelmet

There are a few scenarios where you might choose to skip it:

  • You’re recess mounting the blind and the frame already hides the top
  • The aesthetic in your space leans toward casual or exposed hardware
  • You’re fitting temporary blinds and want a quicker install

Even without a pelmet, your blinds will still function perfectly — it’s just about how far you want to take the finish.

Available Colours & Finish

At iSeekBlinds, Pelmet 95 is available in:

  • White
  • Black
  • Anodised (Silver)

You can match your pelmet to your chain colour, wall tone, or even your window frames for a seamless, designer-approved look.

Installation Notes

Pelmet 95 is designed for face fix only(not recess fit), which means it’s mounted directly above the window or on the wall.

It’s fully compatible with:

  • Single roller blinds
  • Linked roller blinds
  • Motorised roller blinds

The magnetic front makes it easy to remove for maintenance or adjustments, and it’s cut to size for a perfect fit.

Final Thoughts: Worth the Add-On

If you’re already investing in made-to-measure blinds, a pelmet is a small upgrade that delivers a big impact.

Pelmet 95 not only finishes your blinds beautifully — it enhances performance, especially in light-sensitive rooms. It’s the detail that turns great blinds into a refined design statement.
