Congratulations on your new Mactaggart & Mickel home. Known for their award-winning designs and exceptional building standards, Mactaggart homes deserve window treatments that match their premium quality. At Cross Blinds & Shutters, we specialise in providing made-to-measure blinds, shutters, and curtains designed specifically for the unique architectural features of Mactaggart properties.
Protecting Your New Build Warranty
Mactaggart & Mickel homes are built to the highest energy-efficiency standards. One of the biggest concerns for new homeowners is voiding their builder’s warranty by drilling into uPVC window frames.
We offer a full range of No-Drill Window Treatments, including Perfect Fit and Intu blinds. These systems clip directly into the window beading, requiring no screws or permanent alterations. This ensures your warranty remains 100% intact while providing a seamless, integrated look.
Visit our showroom to discover window treatment displays inspired by Mactaggart & Mickel’s award-winning interiors and see how custom blinds and shutters can enhance the comfort, privacy, and premium finish of your new build home.

The Smart Home Upgrade
“The high ceilings in our Mactaggart home made manual blinds a bit of a concern for the bedrooms. Cross Blinds suggested motorised Somfy rollers. Being able to open them from bed with a remote (or the app) is a total game changer. They really suit the modern, high-spec feel of the new house. Great local company.”
Mark P.
The "Whole House" Value
"We compared a few quotes for our new build and Cross Blinds were the most competitive for the quality on offer. We did a 'whole house' package including shutters for the front of the house and rollers for the back. The fitters were tidy, polite, and clearly knew Mactaggart house types inside out. Highly recommend the Cumbernauld showroom too!"
James G.
The "No-Drill" Warranty Specialist
"Having spent a lot on our new build, the last thing I wanted was someone drilling into the uPVC frames and voiding our warranty. The team at Cross Blinds explained their 'no-drill' system and it's brilliant. We had Intu blinds fitted throughout our Mactaggart house and they are flawless. No mess, no screws, and total peace of mind."

The "Move-In Day" Success
"We were so worried about privacy on our first night in our new Mactaggart home. Cross Blinds were fantastic—they came out to measure during our home demonstration and had the blinds ready for the day we got our keys. Professional, quick, and the Perfect Fit blinds look like they were built into the windows. Five-star service!"

The Stewart
4-Bed Family Home
Recommendations:
The Stewart is designed for high-traffic family living. PFI blinds clip directly into the French door frames without drilling. They move with the door, meaning they won’t bang against the glass or get caught in the handle when kids or pets are running in and out of the garden.
The Mackintosh is an architectural statement. Allusion blinds are perfect for the expansive glazing in the Garden Room; they offer a soft, "walk-through" curtain feel with the light control of a blind. For the front-facing windows, Plantation Shutters provide the "Show Home" curb appeal that such a luxury property deserves.
The Graham has a more classic silhouette. Real wood venetians (in white or soft grey) complement the high-end timber detailing often found in Mactaggart homes. They provide excellent light control and look incredibly smart and uniform from the outside.
In the Larch, space and light are key. Intu Micro blinds are the sleekest "no-drill" system available. They sit flush within the window bead, meaning your window sills remain completely clear for plants or decor. This makes the rooms feel larger and less cluttered.

Why Mactaggart & Mickel Homes Require a Specialist Touch
While many new-build developers focus on standard window sizes and volume, Mactaggart & Mickel are renowned for their architectural variety, high ceilings, and signature "Garden Rooms." Installing off-the-shelf or "standard" blinds in a Mactaggart home often fails to do justice to the property’s premium design compare to Cala Home and Barrat new build.
