The Twistfit roller blind range at Blinds By Post pairs a no-drill Twistfit fitting for UPVC windows with a collection of designer-licensed print fabrics, covering 30 patterns from Sara Miller, Sophie Allport, and Laura Ashley. Pricing starts from £39.08, placing it in the mid-to-upper bracket for patterned made-to-measure rollers. The range is focused entirely on decorative prints rather than light-control specification, so it will appeal to anyone who wants a characterful blind without sacrificing the convenience of a no-drill fitting.

Who it suits

The Twistfit mechanism clips into the rubber gasket of UPVC double-glazed windows without screws - a practical arrangement for renters, or for anyone who wants a blind they can remove without trace. The constraint is that it works only on UPVC windows with a compatible gasket profile; wooden frames or aluminium windows are not suited to this fitting system.

Light-control specification is not stated for this range, so if genuine blackout or even dimout is a requirement - for a bedroom or a child's room, for instance - confirm the fabric opacity with Blinds By Post before ordering. The prints suggest these fabrics are decorative polyester rollers rather than heavy blackout-coated constructions. For rooms where privacy and a visual statement matter more than complete light blockage - a kitchen, a living room, or a bathroom with a UPVC window - this range is a reasonable fit.

For children's rooms, the cord arrangement matters under UK safety regulations; check whether this range is available in a cordless or wand-operated version if young children will be in the room.

The designs

30 colours available

The thirty patterns divide across three licensed designers. Sara Miller contributes a number of the more graphic, pattern-forward designs - Heron Fuchsia, Toucans Aqua, Underwater White, Wisteria White, and Butterflies & Trellis Purple among them, with an illustrative quality that reads well as a focal point in a kitchen or utility room. Sophie Allport's designs - Dragonfly Natural, Fetch Natural, Hare Dove, Elephant Deep Navy, Sheep Ochre - tend to a more restrained, country-inflected style that suits living rooms and period kitchens. Laura Ashley's contribution covers a broader mood range: the A'hoy Sail Boats Multi and Gilly Multi patterns are livelier, while Fennelton Natural, Lockwood Natural, and Painterly Stripe Pale Steel sit in the quieter, more neutral territory.

The palette overall leans towards natural, earthy tones with selective injections of colour - navy, teal, deep green, fuchsia, petrol. There is nothing here in a plain colour, so this is a range for rooms that will carry a print confidently rather than as an afterthought.

How it compares

Plain blackout or dimout rollers from the same retailer or others will almost always undercut this range on price and offer more opacity control. The case for the Twistfit designer range is specifically the combination of named print designs and a no-drill UPVC fitting - if you want neither a plain fabric nor a drilled bracket, it covers a useful gap.

Against other licensed-print roller collections elsewhere in the market, the Twistfit fitting gives a practical advantage for UPVC windows. The trade-off is that the fitting restricts you to UPVC-compatible windows, and the range does not extend to plain colours. If the pattern appeals but some degree of light control matters, it is worth asking Blinds By Post whether any of these fabrics can be supplied with a heavier or lined backing. The opacity of decorative print fabrics varies, and the retailer is better placed than we are to confirm what each design will actually let through.
