Impeccable service, unique talent and awesome people to work with. Highly recommended.
The entire team went above and beyond our expectations from start to finish. Probably one of the best companies I have dealt with in Cape Town.
A shining star in the midst of contractors that do not deliver. Highly recommended professional team for both design and installation.
The screens came out brilliantly, even better than I imagined. Thank you so much for all your effort.
They supplied me with top quality service and their finishes are second to none!

Straight answers. No sales fluff. If your question isn’t here, our team is.
Ask Us Anything →Do you do the full job — design, fabricate and install?
Yes — TILT manages the full scope in-house. From initial concept and shop drawings through to manufacture at our Cape Town facility and installation on site. No subcontracting, no dropped handovers.
How long does a typical project take from order to install?
Lead times depend on project scale and complexity. Most residential projects run 4–6 weeks from order to installation. Large commercial projects typically require 8–12 weeks. We confirm timelines at quote stage and hold to them.
Can you create custom patterns, or are you limited to a catalogue?
Fully custom — no minimum order. Send us a sketch, a reference image or a mood board and our in-house design team develops the pattern from your brief. We’ve built screens from hand-drawn sketches and from fully detailed CAD packages. Both work.
Do you provide NBS-style specification clauses for architects?
Yes. We provide full specification support for architects and QSs — including itemised BOQs, NBS-style specification clauses, material samples and technical data sheets. We can attend design team meetings and provide written input at any stage.
What’s your BEE status?
TILT is a Level 4 B-BBEE contributor with full procurement recognition value. Our B-BBEE certificate is available on request.
Do you work outside Cape Town and South Africa?
Yes. We manufacture in Cape Town and install nationally. We’ve delivered projects in Johannesburg, Durban, the Garden Route and into sub-Saharan Africa. Cross-border logistics is handled by our team.
