The Unicolour range at Blinds By Post is a made-to-measure roller blind sold in a plain, solid-colour fabric across 27 finishes, starting from £66.00. It is a straightforward, no-pattern option aimed at anyone who wants a clean look without a premium price.

Who it suits

For living rooms and kitchens where the priority is a tidy, unfussy window covering rather than blackout, a plain-fabric roller in a neutral or muted tone is a practical choice. The range's colour breadth - spanning neutrals like Cream, Dove and Ash through to stronger tones like Navy, Charcoal and Red - means most painted-wall schemes will find a match.

The range is less suited to bedrooms where genuine blackout is the requirement. The per-range listing does not state the fabric's opacity class, so if darkness matters for sleep you should confirm with Blinds By Post before ordering. A parent fitting a young child's room ahead of spring's earlier dawns should ask specifically whether the fabric blocks light or merely dims it.

For bathrooms and kitchens, check with the retailer whether this particular fabric carries any moisture-resistant treatment. Standard woven polyester roller fabrics can be fitted in these rooms, but a PVC or vinyl coating is the more durable option where steam or condensation is regular. If the fabric is untreated polyester, reserving it for dry rooms is the safer approach.

Home offices and hallways are where plain solid rollers tend to work particularly well - they complement painted walls, keep the room feeling uncluttered, and are straightforward to replace if the colour scheme changes.

The colours

27 colours available

The palette runs across most of the main colour families. Neutrals are well represented: White, Cream, Dove, Shell, Beige and Taupe cover the pale and warm-white end; Ash, Flint and Charcoal cover the cooler grey range. Darker solids include Black, Navy, Chocolate and Mulberry.

Bolder accent choices - Cyan, Kiwi, Glade, Red, Lapis and Morello - are present for rooms where a blind is meant to contribute to a colour scheme rather than disappear into it. The named finishes like Atmosphere, Batik, Escape, Kara, Luna, Naro, Rayon and Morello suggest fabric names rather than explicit colour descriptions, so it is worth viewing samples before ordering if the exact tone matters.

All 26 finishes appear to be available at the same base from-price; the per-range listing does not identify any premium-priced variants.

Price by your dimensions

Enter your window size. We round up to the next standard size, which matches how the retailer actually quotes you.

At a from-price just above £16, the Unicolour range sits at the accessible end of made-to-measure roller pricing. As with all made-to-measure blinds, the final price rises with width and drop; the grid above shows how cost scales across a standard set of sizes. Note that measured dimensions are typically rounded up to the retailer's nearest manufacturing increment, which the grid reflects.

How it compares

A plain-colour roller at this price point is a utility purchase - good for consistent, unfussy coverage across several windows or rooms where visual uniformity matters more than texture or opacity performance. If you are furnishing multiple rooms to a coherent palette, the 26-colour breadth makes it straightforward to keep things consistent without ordering from different ranges. If you need a patterned fabric, Blinds By Post stocks patterned roller ranges that sit alongside Unicolour in the same made-to-measure system.

For rooms where thermal performance is the priority - a conservatory or a draughty north-facing bedroom - a cellular or pleated blind would serve better than any single-layer roller regardless of fabric weight. For light-sleeping adults or shift workers who need genuine blackout, a roller with a confirmed blackout-rated fabric and side-channel fitting would be worth the extra cost over this range.
