We have been keeping very busy with development of several new applications. The latest product to be added to our range is a Roller Blind/Shade Grid Price Calculator. This tool can be used to calculate Cost Grids, plus Wholesale and Retail Price Grids. There is a lot of inbuilt flexibility for the users to configure the end products with many different fabrics groups and components.

Copy/Paste your entire project into the table then watch the magic happen! Click RUN and your blind skins are optimally laid out into the most optimal roll width, selected from the options you entered. The end result is a graphical and tabular output of the optimised layout, ready to pass to your cutting table operator. The application even gives you a yield efficiency for each roll width, with total Lm/Yds required and m2/ft2 of scrap produced.
The worksheet is selectable to operate in Metric or Imperial units and includes settings for table clamp allowances, skin spacings both on height and width, plus selectable common cut option.
Utilize our sophisticated curtain/drape algorithms to determine product costs and grid prices for a wide range of window covering types, including Curtains, Roller Blinds, Venetians, Shutters and even Window Films! The costing sheets are flexible to use with a wide range of configurable fields to meet your business requirements. Available in Metric only right now, these worksheets solve the problem of how to create fast and accurate product costs and price grids.
Use our specialized tube strength calculation tool to confidently know if a tube is strong enough to safely span a window with an extra heavy or extra light fabric attached. Accurately know Torque loads for any size roller blind for reliable motor selection, especially when using low power DC motors! Roll-up diameter and blind weight are also calculated. If you know your spring k-value, you can even calculate pre-turns for any size roller blind.
Fast and simple is how users describe our pre-built Quoting Worksheets! Whether you need to quote small or large projects, our efficient grid-based quoting sheets are the answer.
For sheets already pre-configured for several local and national manufacturers, setup takes just minutes to produce professional quality quote documents, ready to send to your end customers. Just add your discount, company details and a logo, plus make a few configuration selections and you are ready to go!
If you can't find a pre-configured worksheet for your supplier, you can easily add their grid prices and accessory prices to the worksheet and within an hour you're ready to get started quoting. If you can't be bothered doing the setup, then just ask us and we can assist!
Project estimating has never been faster or easier, especially since these worksheets are Excel based, so easy to populate with your full project list of blinds or curtain sizes. Say goodbye to manual lookups and calculations forever.
This Workbook provides tools to calculate a comprehensive bill of materials (BOM) costing for a single Roller Blind/Shade across multiple Fabric costing groups, plus extend that costing to full Grid Costing based upon user adjustable grid width and grid drop sizes. From that costing, the workbook also outputs Wholesale and Retail Price Grids, using User defined margins. GST/VAT can be optionally added to these end-user grids. Users are provided with dozens of config options for how to create the BOM's. Tubes and brackets can be auto-upsized according to dynamic calculations, or according to grid settings, or fixed widths. Similar options are also available for adding spring assists/boosters.
