Custom Curtains & Blinds in Coogee

Coogee wraps around its beach in a bowl, with apartment blocks stacked along Arden Street and up the hills on either side towards Randwick and South Coogee. Nearly every home in the suburb faces east towards the water, which means strong morning sun straight through the front windows, and the ones closest to the beach get a steady dose of salt spray on the glass. That combination shapes what works at the window: fabrics that soften the early light, and finishes that don't mind the sea air. Sway Curtains designs and installs custom curtains and blinds for Coogee homes and apartments, with local support from our Moore Park showroom a short drive away.

Are Shutters the Right Choice for a Beachfront Apartment in Coogee?

For a lot of Coogee apartments, especially along Arden Street and Beach Street, shutters are the sensible answer. Our plantation shutters in waterproof PVC won't warp, swell or corrode in salt air the way some materials do, they're easy to wipe down when the sea spray builds up, and they give a clean, coastal look that suits a beachside block. Further up the hill, where the salt is less of an issue, timber shutters add a warmer finish to living rooms and bedrooms. Many Coogee homeowners put shutters on the beach-facing windows and curtains or blinds through the rest of the home.

Curtains for East-Facing Rooms

If your living room looks out to the beach, the morning sun arrives early and hard. Sheer curtains soften it while keeping the room bright and the ocean in view, and they're the most popular choice for front rooms in Coogee. Our light filtering curtains suit rooms that get direct sun for longer, cutting glare and heat without losing natural light. Bedrooms that face east need our blackout curtains to stay dark past sunrise, which in summer is before six.

Roller Blinds for Compact Coogee Apartments

Coogee's apartments tend to be compact, so treatments that stay out of the way matter. Roller blinds from our blinds range are the neat option for kitchens, bathrooms and smaller windows, and roman blinds give a small bedroom a softer, finished look without taking up wall space.

Motorised Options for High Windows and Balcony Doors

Apartments on the upper levels of Coogee's blocks often have wide sliding doors onto the balcony and high windows that catch the view, and reaching across furniture to adjust them gets old quickly. Motorisation lets you run the whole front of the apartment from a remote or your phone, and it's a tidy, cord-free option for smaller rooms.

Measure, Make and Install

We start with a free in-home measure and quote, where one of our team comes to your Coogee property to talk through fabric, style and functionality based on your windows and how you use each room, including how much salt exposure each window gets. Everything is custom-made to your exact measurements, and we handle the full installation ourselves rather than outsourcing it, so the fit and finish stays consistent from start to finish.
