What to expect at Gateway bay

Our Gateway bay is a hands-on appointment bay inside Gateway Theatre of Shopping, set up for coastal clients in KwaZulu-Natal who want to see and touch our felt finishes before making choices. Here you can run your hand over the full range of our soft interior felt goods, compare colourways, and feel the different thicknesses and densities that matter for acoustic and seating applications.

You’ll have quiet time with felt samples, swatches, and product examples, plus advice from someone who knows how these materials handle KZN’s humidity, salt air, and busy family or business life. We guide you through options for wall felt, acoustic panels, banquette wraps, plinths, entry mats, and more, with the focus on your real space and its challenges.

What to bring to your appointment

A bit of preparation helps us give you the most useful advice for your project. Bring along details of the room or area you want felt goods for, so we can match colours, discuss fitting, and check for any site-specific issues like sun, moisture or foot traffic.

Who we help in the Umhlanga area

We often work with homeowners looking to soften sound in open-plan flats, managers fitting out hotel suites or beachfront clinics, and architects or designers matching felt finishes to coastal interiors. KZN's humid climate can mean more care is needed to keep textiles fresh and free from mustiness, so we advise on the right felt for each space.

Our felt goods can handle busy passages, clinics with regular cleaning, or quiet hotel lounges exposed to sea air. We’ll help you consider practical details like UV exposure, condensation, and cleaning routines for coastal life, so you get a result that lasts.

How to book your visit

All appointments are booked in advance for personal attention and to keep the space focused on your project.
