The Curtain Store

Dennis Lind and the friendly, knowledgeable team at The Curtain Store provide a combination of good old fashioned service and expert advice.

Their crafted curtains, drapes, blinds and nets (terylenes) can be found in homes of happy customers all around the Hutt Valley, Wairarapa and Wellington region, including all the newest housing developments and Summerset Retirement Village.

With over 50 years combined experience, they ensure our customers get exactly the right product for their needs. They get to know customers’ design style and what they want, then use their knowledge to apply what works technically. “This definitely comes up with a superior result,” owner Dennis says. “Knowledge combined with understanding makes a huge difference. “There is nothing better than a customer loving what we have done – that is what all our staff live for - we don’t just want to make a sale – we work hard to make customers happy,” he says.

The Curtain Store has one of New Zealand’s largest' libraries of cut length display samples and one of the largest ranges of fabric rolls in store, which gives plenty of choice and design scope when decision making.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
