Motorized blinds, wooden blinds and curtains in Huai Khwang

Huai Khwang is the area people tend to lump together as Ratchada–Rama 9. Ratchadaphisek Road and Rama 9 Road cross inside the district, and the underground Blue Line runs beneath Ratchada through Phra Ram 9, Thailand Cultural Centre and Huai Khwang stations. Along that line, office towers, shopping malls and high-rise condos stand shoulder to shoulder. Further into the sois off Pracha Rat Bamphen and Ratchada, it is still shophouses, apartment blocks and older houses. The district has three sub-districts — Huai Khwang, Bang Kapi and Sam Sen Nok — and the Bang Kapi name can confuse people, because it is a different area from Bang Kapi district.

What comes up most often in Huai Khwang

Written from how people actually live here, not text that would fit anywhere.

Rama 9: units looking straight at office towers

Plenty of condos around Rama 9 Road have office buildings close enough to see into clearly. So the time to think about privacy is not only at night — it includes working hours, when the tower opposite has people sitting by the glass on nearly every floor. The glass facades of those buildings also bounce sunlight back, so even a unit that does not face the sun directly gets glare at certain times of day. For a room used as a workspace, a wooden blind is a precise fix: tilt the slats a little to cut reflected light coming from one particular angle, and the room stays bright while the people opposite find it harder to see in. If the glass is wide enough that the wooden blind would have to be split into several units, a dim-out roller is the other route, cutting both glare and the view in without taking the room as dark as blackout.

Compact units near Huai Khwang and Cultural Centre stations

Many of the condos within walking distance of a station here are compact units. In a lot of them the window wall holds both the glass and the balcony door in one line, with a wardrobe or side wall butting up at one end. Curtains need somewhere to stack when open: if the track only matches the glass, the fabric covers part of the window every time it is open, but stretch the track further and it runs into the wardrobe. The workable answer is a one-way motorized track that sends the whole curtain to the side with free space. That has to be decided at the measure, because it fixes which end the motor sits at, and that end needs a socket. If there is genuinely nowhere for fabric to stack, a roller that tucks up into its headrail is the answer left.

Shophouses off Pracha Rat Bamphen: upper floors used as offices

A fair number of shophouses in the sois off Pracha Rat Bamphen and Ratchada use their upper floors as small offices. Many have wide glass across almost the whole frontage, and one room holds several desks facing different ways, each getting different light from the window. Vertical blinds suit that: the vanes rotate 180 degrees, so you can set the light for the whole room without closing it up, and they wipe clean one vane at a time — a real help in a room on a busy road. The other thing offices ask is whether fitting can avoid the working week. Weekends are possible at no extra charge, but installation after 17:30 does cost extra.

Common questions

What customers in Huai Khwang ask

What does a measure in Huai Khwang cost?

500-1,000 THB at the Bangkok and metro rate, credited back in full when you order. The quote follows within one day of the measure.

We are in a condo — what should we arrange before the fitter comes?

Just let the building management know in advance that a fitter is coming. The unit also needs to be fully finished before we measure, because the sizes have to be the final ones.

The developer fitted curtains already — do we take them down ourselves?

No need. We can remove them for you at 200 THB per unit.

Can I work the blinds from my desk without getting up?

Yes. Motorized blinds run from a remote, the phone app or a wall switch, and the motor is quieter than an electric fan.
