John Lewis Made to Measure 25mm Cell Semi-Plain Blackout Honeycomb Blind, Sand

When it comes to decorating your home sometimes it’s worth the investment in getting something made just for you. Our Made to Measure blinds collection includes a whole host of styles and colours with choices to be made about the tiny details like what side of the blind you want the control mechanisms. It means you get exactly what you want, how you want it.

These are our Made to Measure semi-plain blackout honeycomb blinds. The blackout quality means they eliminate light and give you 100% privacy. This makes them a perfect choice for bedrooms as they help you get a good night's sleep, blocking out light pollution as well as the early-rising sun in the spring and summer months.

Warm in winter, cool in summer

Size restrictions:

Minimum size: W40 x Drop 40cm

Maximum size: Depends on your choice of operation

Operation types explained:

1. Cord lock top down
These blinds have one cord lock which locks the fabric in any position between fully raised and fully lowered. Imagine how a roller blind goes up and down, it’s the same thing.
Choose between 4 headrail colours and matching colours (white, anodized, anthracite or black). There's also the option for a premium metal toggle in black nickel or stainless steel.
Maximum size: W300 x Drop 270cm

2. Cord lock top down bottom up
This configuration has two cord locks (one at each end of the blind) and an additional mid-rail. This means you can position the blind anywhere between the top and bottom of the window frame. In other words, the top of the blind doesn’t have to stay at the top of the frame; the mid-rail can be moved down the frame so there’s space between the top of the fabric and the top of the window.
Choose between 4 headrail colours and matching colours (white, anodized, anthracite or black). There's also the option for a premium metal toggle in black nickel or stainless steel.
Maximum size: W300 x Drop 270cm

3. Tensioned
Tensioned blinds don’t use chain controls so they’re the most child-safe. They remain under constant tension to keep their position and can be mounted at an angle which also makes them great for tilt and turn windows. The mechanism takes virtually no space on the window or sill so when raised the stacked blind is extremely small, neat and tidy.
Choose between 4 headrail colours and matching handle (white, anodized, anthracite or black). Maximum size: W120 x Drop 220cm

4. Perfect Fit
These blinds clip into your window so there’s no drilling required and they’re easy to remove and clean without causing damage. The fabric of the blind can be positioned in multiple places and as they’re installed flush to the window they reduce light seepage around the edges the most compared to the other styles.
Choose between two frame colours (white or anthracite) and matching grip
Maximum size: W150 x Drop 200cm

Child safety
For safety, we recommend that you move beds, cots and furniture away from any window fitted with a blind that has a side control mechanism, even with a safety device in place.
Please make sure you understand the information on our Child Safety Hub before placing your order.
