Weavers Gate Antrim blinds and shutters, planned around your type of home

Weavers Gate is unusual among the developments we cover because it spans everything from two-bedroom apartments to three- and four-bedroom houses. That changes what matters at the windows. An apartment may need compact, simple solutions throughout; a larger Balmain, Temperley or McQueen can justify different products for bedrooms, living spaces and doors.

An apartment and a four-bedroom house should not get the same window plan

Current Weavers Gate availability includes two-bedroom apartments as well as the three-bedroom Marant and four-bedroom Balmain. The wider development also contains detached, semi-detached and townhouse house types. That variety is more useful to us than a generic “new-build” label because it tells us how much of the property you may want to tackle at once.

Tell us the house type when you book If you know you are moving into a Balmain, Marant, Sander, Halston or another named Weavers Gate layout, include it in your notes. We still measure every relevant opening, but it gives the consultant useful context before arriving.
If you are buying an apartment

Keep the specification simple, useful and consistent

In a two-bedroom apartment there are fewer windows to solve, so it often makes sense to spend more time getting the operation and fabric right rather than creating unnecessary product variation.

  • Prioritise privacy in the main living space.
  • Use stronger light control in both bedrooms.
  • Keep colours coordinated so the smaller number of rooms reads consistently.
  • Choose products that do not visually overload the window.
If you are buying a house

Split the decisions by room instead of by product

A three- or four-bedroom house gives you more freedom to use different products where they genuinely help. The main bedroom, children’s rooms, kitchen, living room and home-working space do not need identical specifications.

  • Use slatted blinds or shutters where adjustable privacy matters.
  • Specify bedrooms around sleep first.
  • Treat larger glazed doors separately from standard windows.
  • Carry one colour family through the house for continuity.
What the Weavers Gate brochure tells us

The larger house types give you noticeably more window-covering decisions

The Phase 3 brochure identifies several house types and approximate floor areas. The figures do not tell us the final blind sizes, but they do help show how differently the properties are scaled.

Living spaces

Use adjustable privacy where the room is lived in all day

For living rooms, the most useful question is often whether you want privacy without shutting the room down. Wooden Venetians and plantation shutters both give you the ability to redirect views and daylight rather than simply opening or closing a blind.

  • Wooden Venetian blinds add warmth and let you fine-tune the slat angle.
  • Plantation shutters suit homeowners looking for a more permanent architectural finish.
  • For apartments, a restrained colour close to the internal window finish can keep the room feeling larger.
  • For larger houses, the same finish can be repeated in hall-facing or front-facing rooms without forcing it into bedrooms.
Four practical jobs

Choose the product by what the window needs to do

The most useful appointment is one where we solve each room rather than trying to sell the same blind four different ways.

Adjustable privacy

Wooden Venetians

Good for living rooms, studies and front-facing spaces where controlling views and daylight matters throughout the day.

Bedroom light control

Blackout rollers

A straightforward bedroom solution when reducing early-morning light is more important than adding visual detail.

Compact & insulating

Cellular blinds

A neat option worth comparing for bedrooms and other rooms where a compact blind and additional insulation are useful.

Fitted finish

Plantation shutters

Useful where you want long-term adjustable privacy and a more architectural treatment around the window.

Bedrooms

Do not let the rest of the house dictate the bedroom specification

A bedroom blind has a different job from a living-room blind. In the Balmain, Marant or any of the three- and four-bedroom layouts, it is perfectly sensible to use a different product upstairs while keeping the colours coordinated.

  • Choose blackout fabric where sleep is the main priority.
  • Compare cellular blinds if you want a softer, compact alternative.
  • For a guest room or home office, adjustable slats may be more useful than blackout.
  • Measure only once the actual window opening and surrounding finishes are complete enough for an accurate fit.

When to organise your blinds at Weavers Gate

01 · Before completion

Decide what matters first

List the rooms where you need immediate privacy or light control. You can shortlist products before you have final dimensions.

02 · Once accessible

Measure the finished openings

We visit the property and measure the actual windows. Brochure dimensions and floor plans are useful for planning, but not for manufacturing a made-to-measure blind.

03 · In the room

Compare real samples

Look at fabrics and finishes beside the flooring, walls, furniture and daylight. This usually makes the final choice much easier than relying on screen colours.

Weavers Gate FAQs

Useful answers before we measure

Do you cover the Weavers Gate apartments as well as the houses?

Yes. We can measure and fit in apartments as well as the detached, semi-detached and townhouse properties at Weavers Gate. Product choice is based on the actual windows and how you use each room.

I know my Weavers Gate house type. Should I tell you?

Yes. If you know you have a Balmain, Marant, Halston, Sander or another named layout, include it when booking. It gives useful context, although the final order is always based on measurements taken at the property.

Can you use the dimensions in the developer brochure?

They are useful for understanding the scale of the property, but not for manufacturing blinds or shutters. We measure the actual window openings because final dimensions, fitting positions and tolerances matter.

Should an apartment use the same blinds in every room?

Not necessarily. A consistent colour can keep the apartment visually coordinated, while bedrooms may still benefit from blackout or cellular products and the living space from a more adjustable privacy solution.

Can you quote for the whole property in one appointment?

Yes. Tell us roughly how many windows are involved when booking so the appropriate appointment time can be allowed, particularly for the larger three- and four-bedroom house types.
