Kresta’s network of showrooms across Australia and New Zealand
are truly places to come and be inspired.
H
ouses need finishing touches
to become homes, and you
can find everything you need
to superbly finish off yours
at any of Kresta’s impressive
showrooms.
Browse through hundreds of beautiful
blinds, curtains, shutters, awnings,
fabrics and accessories with an
experienced Kresta consultant by
your side to guide you.
Selecting window treatments for
an existing or new home is often
overwhelming. There are major benefits
in being able to touch, see and use any
new technology available to determine
how it might work for you at home.
Kresta understands that everyone is
time poor, so once you’ve had your initial
in-store consultation, a consultant can
arrange a home visit and will arrive fully
equipped with everything you need to
make those big decisions.
They can even advise you on what
type of window fitting is going to give
your home the specific look that you’re
after, whether that’s on-trend modern,
Hamptons style or something more
romantic with a classic edge.
What could be easier than that?
And if you are building a new home,
Kresta welcome you to bring in your

house plans so that they can advise on
what type of window fitting will work the
best.

SARAH’S EXPERIENCE:
I was building a new home and as a first time builder I was really
nervous about choosing the wrong window treatments. Kresta put
all of those worries to rest by spending the time to understand what kind
of look I was going for and what kind of functionality was important to my
family. I spent time choosing fabrics in the showroom and my consultant,
Irena, sat down with me to go over all of the plans. We’ve moved in now
and I couldn’t be happier.”

Many products give you the option of having your blinds fully
automated. This means you can open or close your blinds using
a remote control. Selected products can also be integrated
with your home’s smart wiring to co-ordinate all your windows,
shutters, blinds, lighting and security.
Can’t completely avoid the cords? Here are Kresta’s
hot tips for keeping your windows child safe:
ensure that all blind and curtain cords are out of
reach.
Child safety
There is nothing more important to Kresta than the safety of its
customers, particularly babies and young children.
Kresta is especially mindful of the issues of child safety when
it comes to window coverings. The pull cords, chains and bead
cords are a potential hazard to young children who may become
entangled in them. Kresta complies with all window covering
legislation and supplies safety devices that limit or remove
access to cords or chains, giving you complete peace of mind.
Kresta’s unique safetrak® range eliminates the need for
potentially dangerous cords and chains in your home. This helps
create a safer environment for children and pets.
