Default Boring blind question

Does anyone know where you can buy black out blinds longer than 140cm?
We need 160cm looked in the obvious places like Ikea, Homes R Us, Index Living but can't seem to find any.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Go to Dragon Mart in International City, there was a place there that does custom made blinds, probably a few places.

Also in Karama there are a few guys who can make absolutely any kind of window coverings in the world. Best just driving down there and having a look.

Get them made to measure. It really isn't expensive ans you get a huge choice of fabrics and something other than the boring IKEA blinds that every other person has.

There are a number of places on Plant Street in Satwa that will do this, although I recommend Senses Furnishing as I have been using them satisfactorily for years.
