Blackout Curtains in Abu Dhabi
Full darkness and real heat control, cut to your window from catalogues 301, 302 and…
Abu Dhabi splits fairly cleanly between newer island towers and villa compounds on the mainland, and the two want different things from a curtain.
Not listed? Ask anyway — this is where we go most often, not a boundary.
On Reem, Saadiyat and Yas the apartments are newer, the glazing is tall and the sightlines are slim, so a wave heading on a ceiling track suits the architecture and does not fight it. The compound villas around Khalifa City, Al Raha and Mohammed Bin Zayed City have more rooms and more windows, which usually means the decision is about keeping one fabric consistent across a whole house rather than choosing per room — and that is a decision much easier to make with the books in front of you than from a screen.
You pick a slot, our team arrives with the physical catalogues, and the whole thing usually takes under an hour. We measure the track width and the finished drop for every window you want covered, check what the ceiling will take, and note anything that changes the fitting — a shallow bulkhead, an AC vent directly above the window, a wall that is not square. Then you get one written figure that covers the track, the fabric, the tailoring and the fitting.
Abu Dhabi is further from our base than Dubai or Sharjah, so it is worth telling us how many windows you want covered when you book. That lets us give the visit a realistic length instead of arriving with half the time the job needs.
On Reem, Al Raha or Saadiyat the apartments are newer and the glazing is tall and slim, so the sums look much like a Dubai tower: long drops, a wide living span, and a ceiling track rather than a pole. Worth knowing before you book is that a job this size is comfortably inside the volume ladder, so the whole order is discounted rather than each window being priced on its own.

Illustrative sizes, not a quotation — your windows will not be these. It is the same calculation the price estimator runs, so put your own measurements in and you will get your own range. Both cover fabric, tailoring, track, runners, hooks, brackets and installation. The figure only becomes a fixed price once someone has measured.
The most common order is a blackout and sheer double layer on a twin track — chiffon sheer from book 401 in front for daytime privacy, and a blackout from 301, 302 or 303 behind it. If you would rather see the range first, the fabrics catalogues has all 76 shades, and the price estimator gives you a figure for your own window size before anyone visits.
Every style below is cut to your measurements and fitted by our own team in Abu Dhabi. Prices shown are for a standard 2m × 3m window, fully fitted — price your own window for an exact figure.

Searching for curtains near you in Abu Dhabi usually means you want someone to come out rather than a shop to visit. That is how we work: rather than a curtain shop in Abu Dhabi you travel to, the four fabric books come to the home, every window is measured on the spot, and you get one written price covering fabric, tailoring, track and curtain installation in Abu Dhabi. We fit curtains across Khalifa City, Al Reem Island, Al Raha and Yas, and the visit is free whether or not you order.
Made-to-measure curtains in Abu Dhabi are worth the difference wherever the opening is not a standard size — which, across island towers and villa districts, is most of them. A ready-made panel is cut to a size the factory chose; a made-to-measure curtain is cut to your window, and the fitting is what closes the light gaps at the sides that no fabric can fix. If you would rather see a figure before booking anything, the price estimator works from your own measurements.
Abu Dhabi splits fairly cleanly between newer island towers and established villa districts, and the two rarely want the same thing.
Apartments on the islands tend to have wide, uninterrupted glazing with very slim sightlines. The architecture is doing something deliberate there, and heavy formal curtains fight it — a wave heading on a recessed ceiling track keeps the line clean and lets the glazing stay the feature. Because the runs are wide, the stack is wide too, so the track wants as much wall as the room can give it. Double tracks are the norm rather than the exception: with that much glass, a sheer earns its place every day.
Established villa areas have conventional openings, more wall, and a majlis that is usually the room with the tallest windows in the house. That room is where fullness and drop are worth spending on, because it is seen from a distance and by guests. Bedrooms in the same villa can be treated more plainly — blackout, floor length, track past the glass.
We are based towards Dubai and Sharjah, so an Abu Dhabi visit is planned rather than squeezed in. That is worth knowing when you book: give us a couple of options and the number of windows, and we will confirm a slot that lets us measure the whole home properly in one trip rather than returning. Everything else works the same — the books come to you, the measuring is ours, and the price covers fabric, track, tailoring and fitting.

We fit curtains in Khalifa City, Abu Dhabi as often as on the islands, and the villa openings there are usually more conventional than a tower window.
If you are trying to buy curtains in abu dhabi, the practical question is not who is cheapest but what the quote includes and how the curtain will be fitted — wide island glazing suits a wave heading on a recessed track. The best curtains in abu dhabi are simply the ones specified for the window they are going on: the right fullness, a track run past the glass, and a drop to the floor. Blackout curtains in abu dhabi are the usual request for bedrooms, with a chiffon sheer in front for the daytime. Everything above is quoted as one figure covering fabric, tailoring, track and fitting.
Collected after installation across Dubai, Sharjah and the northern emirates.
Straightforward from start to finish. The measurer wrote everything down, the quote arrived the same evening, and the final invoice matched it.
Second order with them. They still had the record of my first fabric so the new room matches the old one exactly.
They talked me out of the fabric I originally wanted because it would not hold the pleat at that drop. They were right. That kind of advice is why I have already recommended them twice.
Motorised track in the bedroom. Works well and is quieter than I expected. The remote pairing took two visits to get right, hence four stars, but they came back the same week and sorted it.
Excellent fabric and fitting. Communication in the week before the visit could have been slightly better, but the work itself is faultless.
Full villa, eleven windows. They handled it in one day with three fitters. Having their own warehouse stock clearly made the difference on the timeline.
The dressing of the pleats after hanging is what I noticed. They tied them and left them to set, then came back to release them. Nobody else offered that.
Fitted nearly a year ago. The colour has not faded on the window that gets direct afternoon sun, which is what I was most worried about.
Two tracks in the bedroom, sheer in front. The sun comes straight into that window in the morning and now it is completely manageable.
Ordered on a Monday, fitted on the Friday. Five days from measuring to hanging, exactly as they said. The blackout is genuine — the room is dark at noon.
My daughter used to wake at 5:30 with the sun. First morning after the fitting she slept until 7. That alone was worth it. Fabric is from book 303 and it feels much heavier than what I was shown elsewhere.
Good price, good fabric and a team that turned up when they said. There is not much more to ask for.
Sample content while we collect the real thing. These are written to show the layout — they are not customers, no star rating is published to Google, and they are replaced in the back office as genuine feedback arrives.
Our team brings catalogues 301, 302, 303 and 401 to your door, measures every window, and quotes one fixed price covering fabric, track, accessories and fitting. The visit is free and there is no obligation.
Leave a number and pick a window. No form-filling, no obligation.
Pick up to four and we'll drop the actual cuttings to your door, free, anywhere we cover. Colour behaves completely differently against your own window — this is the only honest way to judge it without booking anything.
