Hay Interiors is a long-established Perth curtain maker in Nedlands — Crawley’s immediate neighbour. We’ve been making custom made curtains for Perth homes since 1969, and Crawley, wrapped around Matilda Bay between Kings Park and the university, is about as close to the workroom as a suburb can be.
Curtains and Roman blinds are made by hand on our premises; roller blinds, cellular blinds and shutters are made to our exact specification by trusted specialists. The people who advise you are the people responsible for the result.
Crawley is one of Perth’s great apartment suburbs — established complexes and newer developments stacked along the rise between Stirling Highway and the river, most of them built to make the most of a view across Matilda Bay or into the Kings Park treeline. Apartments are a genuine speciality of ours: large glazing, balcony sliders, strata considerations and the daily negotiation between view, privacy and light all reward a made-to-measure approach. Soft sheer curtains keep the outlook while screening the interior; blockout curtains or neat roller blinds handle bedrooms and evenings; and where glazing is wide or high, motorised curtains on quality Acmeda and Somfy systems make daily operation effortless.
Crawley and Nedlands share a boundary, so our Stirling Highway showroom and workroom is a few minutes from any apartment in the suburb — many clients call in on the way to or from the university precinct. Handle full-width curtain fabrics in person, take samples home to judge against your own rooms and your own light, and bring them back just as easily. Being this close also matters after installation: strata access windows, lift bookings and fitting appointments are simple to coordinate when the fitter is next door, and any post-installation adjustment is a five-minute trip for us rather than a scheduled call-out.
Two recent jobs show the range within one small suburb. In the Kings Park Avenue apartments, owners after a more classic look chose beautifully made classic Roman blinds — tailored, structured, and a quietly elegant fit for rooms that didn’t want the fuss of full-length curtains. And in an apartment on Mounts Bay Road overlooking the boatshed, the brief was led by the road itself: traffic noise off Mounts Bay Road was the problem, so we made motorised acoustic curtains through our exclusive Western Australian acoustic fabric partnership — the room keeps its water view and gains real quiet, at the touch of a button. Same suburb, two completely different answers: that’s what consultation with an actual curtain maker gets you.
Crawley’s riverside position comes with a busy artery running through it — Mounts Bay Road and Stirling Highway carry constant traffic, and apartments facing them hear it. As the exclusive Western Australian partner of Australia’s leading acoustic fabric supplier, we make acoustic curtains that reduce perceived sound levels by up to 10dB — roughly halving the noise the ear registers — while looking like exactly what they are: beautifully made curtains. For a bedroom or living room facing the road, it’s the single most effective soft-furnishing investment a Crawley apartment can make, and pairing them with motorisation (as our Mounts Bay Road client did) makes the daily routine effortless.
“I have now been dealing with Hay Interiors for over 10 years. In that time they have provided a service which is consistently both highly professional and also personal, with attention to my requirements and taste. The quality of the many cushions they have made up has been outstanding. It has been a pleasure to do business with them, and I look forward to continuing the relationship. I recommend them without hesitation.” — Gary H, Crawley
