The hallway spec, ordered by what matters
Every Hale hallway project we quote hinges on the same set of questions:
- Front-door glass and side-panel privacy
- High stairwell windows (safe reach)
- Landing-window heat loss above a radiator
- Matching an entrance-hall paint scheme
Motorised for anything above safe ladder reach — a Somfy motor is cheaper than a scaffold hire the next time you need to change it.
The short list for a Hale hallway
Across Hale hallways we mostly fit:
- Perfect-fit cellular (sidelights)
- Motorised roller (high stairwell)
- Roman blind (formal entrance hall)
Perfect-fit clips onto the sidelight beading without drilling — clean fit on new front doors.
Motorised stairwell blinds are operated from a landing wall switch — no reach, no rope, no ladder.
Who this page is for
Homeowners refreshing an entrance hall or landing, and anyone with a stairwell window they can't reach safely.
- A Victorian terraced entrance hall with a coloured-glass fanlight.
- A 1930s semi with a half-landing window over the front door.
- A modern townhouse with a full-height stairwell glazed panel.
In Hale, that's usually an Arts & Crafts villa or a Mock-Tudor detached.
Small decisions that make the hallway work
- Perfect-fit clips onto the sidelight beading without drilling — clean fit on new front doors.
- Motorised stairwell blinds are operated from a landing wall switch — no reach, no rope, no ladder.
- Roman blinds soften a hard-floored entrance and reduce echo.
