It’s a small detail that makes a big difference

When it comes to designing the perfect roller blinds, most people think about fabric and colour first — and that’s fair. But one of the most underrated finishing touches is the bottom rail.

This is the visible bar that runs along the base of your blind, helping to weigh it down and keep it hanging straight. It might be subtle, but the shape and finish of your bottom rail can influence everything from style to how your blinds function over time.

At iSeekBlinds, we offer two distinct bottom rail options:

1. ⁠Flat Bottom Rail
2. ⁠Curved Bottom Rail

Here’s how they differ, and how to choose the one that’s right for your space.

The flat bottom rail is the standard choice for most blinds. It features a clean, straight-edged profile that works with almost any interior style — modern, classic, coastal, or contemporary.

Why choose it? – It creates a neat, minimalist line across the bottom of your blind – Pairs beautifully with rectangular or structured window frames – Available in White, Black, and Anodised Silver to match your brackets, chains, or window hardware

It’s also ideal if you’re aiming for a flush finish with other architectural features or want your blinds to sit in harmony with skirtings and window sills.

The curved bottom rail has a more rounded front profile. It’s slightly more decorative and offers a softer finish that can be a great match for relaxed or organic-style interiors.

At iSeekBlinds, the curved bottom rail is exclusively available in Black, which makes it a bold, contemporary option.

Why choose it? – The curved edge softens the look of the blind – Creates a gentle silhouette when the blind is fully lowered – Works well in spaces with arches, round elements, or layered textures

If you’re designing a home with darker accents or matte black fittings, the curved bottom rail is a sleek complement.

Here’s a quick comparison to help you decide:

Choosing the right bottom rail might seem small — but like handles on cabinets or taps in a bathroom, it’s the detail that completes the design.

Whether you lean toward the timeless look of a flat bottom rail or the soft curve of its rounded sibling, both are built to last and designed to elevate the overall look of your roller or double roller blinds.
