In Dubai, most made-to-measure blinds cost between AED 80 and AED 250 per square metre. Vertical and roller blinds sit at the low end, from about AED 80–85. Duplex, Roman and wooden blinds cost AED 200–250, and motorized blinds start from about AED 430. A standard bedroom window usually costs AED 175–475 for manual blinds.
Shopping for blinds in Dubai can feel confusing. One shop quotes AED 150 for a window, and the next one quotes AED 600 for the same size. So who is right? Most of the time, both are, because they are pricing different fabrics, fittings and controls. We measure and fit blinds across Dubai every week, and in this guide we break down real prices, show you how to work out your own cost, and point out the extras that quietly push a quote up. If you already know what you want, you can browse our full range of custom window blinds Dubai and compare prices by type.
By the end, you will know what a fair price looks like for your home, which blind gives you the best value for each room, and which questions to ask before you pay a deposit.

Our prices were taken from our category pages in October 2026. Market ranges are the prices other Dubai suppliers list on their own websites, and they change often.
A quick note on units: some shops quote per square metre, while others quote per window. A “per window” price always looks bigger, so convert both to the same unit before you compare.
What Affects Blinds Cost in Dubai?
Two blinds can look the same in a photo and still cost very different amounts. Here are the five things that move the price the most.
Window Size and Shape
Size matters more than anything else, because most blinds are priced per square metre. A small kitchen window of 1 m² costs a fraction of a 6 m² living room window. Odd shapes also add cost. Bay windows, corner windows and very tall glass walls need extra brackets, more careful measuring and sometimes two blinds instead of one.
Fabric Type and Quality
Fabric is the second big price driver. Basic polyester rollers cost the least. Blackout fabrics with a thermal backing cost a little more, and linen-look, textured or wood-slat materials cost more again. In Dubai, the strong sun fades cheap fabric fast, so a slightly better fabric often saves you money over the life of the blind.
Manual or Motorized Control
A chain or cord is the cheapest way to open a blind. A motor adds the biggest jump in price, because you pay for the motor, the remote and sometimes a smart hub. Motorized blinds make the most sense for tall windows, villas with many windows, and rooms where you want blinds to open on a timer.
Fitting and Hardware
The fitting style changes the final price too. Simple brackets are the cheapest. A cassette (a neat box that hides the roll) and side channels cost more, but they block light leaks at the edges, which matters in bedrooms. High ceilings, concrete walls and ceiling-mounted tracks can also add labour time.
Warranty and After-Care
A low price with no warranty can cost you more later. Before you compare quotes, ask what the warranty covers: the fabric, the chain or motor, and the fitting.
Price of Each Blind Type in Dubai
Now let’s look at each type, what it costs and where it works best. All our prices below are starting prices per square metre from our website.
Roller Blinds Cost in Dubai
Roller blinds start from AED 85 per sqm at Dubai Blinds Co., with most fabrics between AED 85 and AED 90. They are the best value blinds in Dubai. A roller blind rolls up into a small tube, so it looks clean and fits almost any window. We suggest them for kitchens, home offices and rental apartments where you want a smart look on a small budget.
Blackout Blinds Price Guide
Blackout roller blinds start from AED 90 per sqm, and thermal blackout fabrics cost about AED 100. They block close to all daylight, which helps you sleep after early Dubai sunrises. They also keep bedrooms cooler in summer. For the darkest result, ask about a cassette and side channels, since light can still creep in at the edges of a standard blind.
Duplex Blinds Price Guide
Duplex blinds, also called day and night or zebra blinds, start from AED 200 per sqm. They have two layers of stripes. When the stripes line up, soft light comes through; when they cross, the room turns private. They cost more than a plain roller, but one blind does the job of two, so they suit living rooms that need both views and privacy.
Roman Blinds Price Guide
Roman blinds start from AED 210 per sqm. Double Roman blinds, which pair a sheer layer with a solid layer, cost more, and our motorized Roman range starts from about AED 430. Roman blinds fold into soft pleats when you raise them, so they feel warmer and more like a curtain. They are a popular choice for living rooms, majlis areas and master bedrooms.
Vertical Blinds Price Guide
Vertical blinds start from just AED 80 per sqm, which makes them the lowest-cost option for big glass areas. The slats hang down and turn to control light. Because they slide to the side, they work well on sliding balcony doors and wide office windows.
Venetian Blinds Price Guide
Aluminium Venetian blinds start from AED 80 per sqm, while our 25 mm L-shaped Venetian range costs about AED 200–220. You tilt the slats to control light without lifting the blind. Aluminium does not mind steam or splashes, so Venetians work well in kitchens and bathrooms.
Wooden Blinds Price Guide
Wooden and faux wood blinds start from AED 220 per sqm, with most styles between AED 220 and AED 250. Faux wood looks like real timber but handles Dubai heat and humidity better, and it will not warp near a bathroom. Choose 50 mm or 64 mm slats for a modern villa look.
Motorized Blinds Cost in Dubai
Motorized blinds start from AED 430 per sqm, and most of our range sits between AED 430 and AED 450. You can control them with a remote, an app or your voice, and set them to open at sunrise. If you have tall windows or a lot of glass, our motorized blinds save you from climbing or reaching every day. Rechargeable battery motors also mean no new wiring in most homes.
How to Work Out Your Own Blinds Cost
You can get a rough budget in two minutes. Follow these three steps:
- Measure the window. Measure the width and the height in metres.
- Find the area. Multiply width by height. For example, 1.2 m × 1.8 m = 2.16 m².
- Multiply by the price per sqm. Use the table above for your chosen blind.
Here is what that same 1.2 m × 1.8 m bedroom window costs in different types:
| Blind type | Price per sqm | Cost for a 2.16 m² window |
|---|---|---|
| Vertical | AED 80 | about AED 173 |
| Roller | AED 85 | about AED 184 |
| Blackout | AED 90 | about AED 194 |
| Duplex | AED 200 | about AED 432 |
| Roman | AED 210 | about AED 454 |
| Wooden | AED 220 | about AED 475 |
| Motorized | AED 430 | about AED 929 |
Keep in mind that this is only a starting point. Small windows may have a minimum charge [ADD: our minimum charge per blind, if any], and the final price depends on the exact fabric you pick. That is why we always confirm the price after a free measuring visit.
Sample Budgets: Apartment vs Villa
Real homes mix different blinds in different rooms. To show how the numbers add up, here are two example budgets based on our starting prices. Your window sizes will differ, so treat these as a guide.
Two-bedroom apartment (JVC, Dubai Marina or similar)
| Room | Blind | Area | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Living room (2 windows, 2.0 × 2.2 m) | Duplex | 8.8 m² | AED 1,760 |
| 2 bedrooms (1 window each, 1.5 × 1.8 m) | Blackout roller | 5.4 m² | AED 486 |
| Kitchen (1 window, 1.0 × 1.2 m) | Roller | 1.2 m² | AED 102 |
| Total | about AED 2,348 |
Four-bedroom villa (Arabian Ranches, Dubai Hills or similar)
| Room | Blind | Area | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Living room (3 tall windows, 2.4 × 2.6 m) | Motorized | 18.72 m² | AED 8,050 |
| 4 bedrooms (2 windows each, 1.8 × 2.0 m) | Blackout roller | 28.8 m² | AED 2,592 |
| Majlis (2 windows, 2.4 × 2.6 m) | Roman | 12.48 m² | AED 2,621 |
| Kitchen (2 windows, 1.2 × 1.4 m) | Roller | 3.36 m² | AED 286 |
| Total | about AED 13,548 |
As you can see, motorizing only the main living area keeps a villa budget under control, while blackout rollers keep bedrooms affordable.
Hidden Costs Most Quotes Leave Out
A low quote can grow fast if the shop leaves things out. Always check these points before you agree to a price:
- VAT: The UAE charges 5% VAT, according to the UAE Federal Tax Authority. Ask whether the price already includes it. [ADD: confirm whether our website prices include VAT.]
- Fitting and delivery: Some shops quote supply only. [ADD: confirm that fitting is included in our price.]
- Cassettes and side channels: These improve blackout but often cost extra.
- Removing old blinds: Ask if they take away and dispose of your old blinds.
- Smart hubs: App or voice control may need a hub on top of the motor price.
- High ceilings: Double-height windows may need extra labour and ladders.
When you ask for quotes, ask each shop for a line-by-line price. That way you compare like with like.
Smart Ways to Save on Blinds in Dubai
You do not need to choose the cheapest blind to save money. Instead, put your budget where it matters most:
- Mix and match by room. Use rollers in kitchens and spare rooms, and save premium blinds dubai for the living room.
- Motorize only hard-to-reach windows. Keep chains on easy windows.
- Order the whole home at once. Bigger orders often get a better price per blind. [ADD: our multi-room offer, if any.]
- Keep good brackets. If your old brackets are in good shape, a fabric swap can cost less than a full new blind.
Pick fade-resistant fabric. In strong Dubai sun, a better fabric lasts longer, so you replace it less often.
Cheap vs Quality Blinds: Is It Worth Paying More?
Ready-made blinds from a store can look like a bargain. However, Dubai windows rarely match standard sizes, so ready-made blinds often leave gaps that let in heat and light. Cheap chains also wear out, and thin fabric fades and sags after a few summers.
On the other hand, the most expensive blind is not always the right one either. A AED 900 motorized blinds makes little sense on a small kitchen window you can reach easily. The best value comes from a made-to-measure blind with the right fabric for each room, fitted properly the first time.
Here is a simple rule we share with customers: spend more on the rooms you use most and the windows that get the most sun, and keep it simple everywhere else.
