Custom made in Sydney
Zebra Blinds — measured, made and installed by Crown.
Zebra blinds — also called vision blinds, banded blinds, or dual-zone blinds — are one of the most innovative window furnishing products available. They feature alternating horizontal bands of translucent (sheer) and opaque fabric that roll past each other as you adjust the blind. The effect is visually striking and the control is intuitive — simply pull the chain to shift between filtered light and complete privacy.
Align the sheer bands and you get soft, filtered natural light. Shift to align the opaque bands and you get complete privacy and significantly reduced light. Crown Curtain and Blind installs zebra blinds made to your exact window dimensions across Sydney.

Common questions
Zebra Blinds — frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before making a decision.
Zebra blinds (also called vision blinds or banded blinds) are roller-style blinds with alternating horizontal bands of sheer and opaque fabric. Rolling the blind aligns or offsets these bands — sheer-to-sheer lets in filtered light, opaque-to-opaque creates privacy and blocks light. It gives you precise, adjustable light control in a single blind.
Yes — zebra blinds, vision blinds, dual-zone blinds, and banded blinds all refer to the same product type. The name varies by manufacturer and retailer, but the product and mechanism are the same.
Standard zebra blinds with opaque bands aligned significantly reduce light but are not a complete blackout. For full blackout, a dedicated blockout roller or curtain is more effective. Blockout-enhanced zebra blinds offer better room darkening for those who prefer the zebra aesthetic with improved light control.
Yes — zebra blinds are a popular choice for Sydney lounge rooms and apartments. Their modern aesthetic suits contemporary interiors, and the light-filtering capability manages Sydney's bright afternoon sun effectively and stylishly.
Yes — motorised zebra blinds are available and increasingly popular. The roll mechanism motorises cleanly, and the result is an effortlessly operated, contemporary window furnishing well-suited to Google Home, Alexa, and Apple HomeKit integration.
A single zebra blind panel can typically be made up to 3m wide. For wider openings, two panels are installed side by side for a seamless appearance across the full window or door wall.
