Circular Windows - What are the shading options ?
Horizontal Mini Blinds
The most practical type of blind for circular is an horizontal mini venetian type. Techform mini blinds are available in a wide range of aluminium and timber slats. This range uses conventional Venetian blind design headrails and operating mechanisms and they hang in the window in the same way as a conventional blind does.
Non-Retractable Blinds
For large windows non-retractable louvre blinds are more practical. They have an aluminium framework that extends at intervals down the length of the blind as is thus is tilt only and non-retractable. It is the most robust option for shaped windows and rooflight glazing.
Vertical louvre blinds
Suitable for shallow arches and where there is space at the side for the louvres to stack (ie no cill). Where there is a cill only tilt operation is possible. Not recommended when the depth of the arch is more than half of the width.
Pleated blinds
We consider this to be a domestic solution unsuited to contract applications. The blind is fitted on one radius of the arch and is fanned round with support cables. Only suited to small windows.
