Motorized blinds, wooden blinds and curtains in Phra Samut Chedi

Phra Samut Chedi sits on the west bank of the Chao Phraya just before it meets the sea, across the river from the town of Samut Prakan. The district takes its name from the Phra Samut Chedi stupa on the riverbank, and out towards Laem Fa Pha it is also home to Phra Chulachomklao Fort. The main road link to Bangkok is Suksawat Road. Homes here split roughly two ways: housing estates and townhomes that have spread down along Suksawat, and riverside, canal-side and coastal communities that were here first — which get more sea wind and more damp than houses further inland.

What comes up most often in Phra Samut Chedi

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

Estates and townhomes along Suksawat: the back extension

Townhomes and semi-detached houses in the estates here often have a kitchen or laundry area built on at the back, roofed with something that lets light through. The back room ends up bright, but the sun comes straight down from above, and ordinary window blinds do nothing for it because the light isn't coming through a window. If the extension roof is glass or has a skylight panel, there is a skylight blind made to order for that specific roof — but the fitter always has to see the actual roof structure first to confirm it can take a fixing. The doorway from the house into the extension is a route used all day, so vertical vanes you can part and walk through are more convenient than anything that has to be stacked away each time.

West-bank riverside homes: morning sun and glare off the water

Because the district is on the west bank, homes that face the river tend to face east. They take the full morning sun, plus glare reflected up off the water. That reflected light doesn't come from the sky above — it comes up from low down, so a blind that can only be open or shut usually ends with the whole window closed and the river view gone. Wooden blinds deal with this more precisely: tilt the slats to cut the light coming from below while still letting light in from above and keeping some view of the river. Worth knowing: wooden blinds are hand-operated as standard. Motorising one is a special order, and the motor is 25,000 THB per unit.

Coastal communities around Laem Fa Pha: living with the windows open

Many homes near the coast rely on the breeze with the windows open. To be straight about it: no window covering stays still when it is left hanging in a strong wind. Curtains billow and slap the frame, and vertical vanes left out in the wind clatter against each other. The practical approach is to work out which windows are open by day and shut at night. For those, a roller blind rolled all the way up while the window is open gives the wind nothing to catch, and comes down once the window is closed. In a damp house fabric also dries slowly; a flat panel is easier to wipe than layered pleats, but it must be completely dry before it is rolled up, or it will start to smell musty.

What usually suits homes in Phra Samut Chedi

Common questions

What customers in Phra Samut Chedi ask

Phra Samut Chedi is across the river from the town — does it count as upcountry?

No. Samut Prakan is metro area, so the measure is 500-1,000 THB and is credited back in full when you order — not the upcountry rate, which starts at 3,500 THB and is not credited back.

Sun comes straight through our back-extension roof — can you cover it, and what does it cost?

If it is a glass roof or a skylight panel, there is a skylight blind made to order for that roof, and the fitter always has to measure and see the structure first. This category has no starting price on the site yet, so it is priced on request after the measure.

We keep the windows open to the sea breeze all day — what should we choose?

Nothing stays still hanging in a strong wind: curtains billow and vertical vanes clatter. If the windows are open by day and shut at night, a roller blind rolled fully up during the day leaves nothing for the wind to catch, and its flat panel wipes clean easily — just let it dry completely before rolling it up.

Can a wooden blind be motorized?

Yes. Wooden blinds are hand-operated as standard and can be ordered motorized; the motor is 25,000 THB per unit. We make them up to 250 cm wide and 300 cm tall. All prices exclude VAT.
