Your Questions Answered
FAQ: Aluminium Venetian Blinds
Q: What are Aluminium Venetian Blinds?
A: Aluminium Venetian Blinds are slatted blinds made from lightweight aluminium. The slats can be tilted or raised/lowered using a cord or rod, allowing precise control over light and privacy. Slightly curved slats help reflect light back into the room, while their slim stack height makes them ideal for windows with limited recess. Safety features like cleats and breakaway cords make them child-safe.
Q: What windows are best suited for Aluminium Venetians?
A: Aluminium Venetians suit many window types, particularly where space is limited. Their slim profile makes them ideal for windows that need privacy and light control but lack deep recesses or large areas for bulky blinds.
Q: What colours are available?
A: Aluminium Venetians come in a wide range of colours to suit any interior, including:
Popular finishes: White and Grey
Other options: Wood-effect finishes for a more natural look
Q: What variations are there?
A: Modern Aluminium Venetians have been adapted for improved functionality:
PerfectFit Frame System – screwless installation within a frame, perfect for standard window panes.
INTU Beadfit System – sleek design with no lift cords or tilt wands, ideal for a clean, modern look.
Q: Can Aluminium Venetians be motorised?
A: Yes. Somfy motors can control both tilt and lift functions. Motorisation is ideal for hard-to-reach windows, and it can also help reduce energy costs by managing solar gain.
Q: How long do Aluminium Venetians take to make?
A: All Aluminium Blinds are manufactured in the UK, allowing us to install them within approximately 2 weeks from order.
Q: Are there any disadvantages?
A: The main consideration is cleaning. The 25mm aluminium slats can be tricky to dust, and because the slats are thin, they may kink in high-traffic areas if mishandled.
Q: How long do Aluminium Venetians last?
A: Aluminium Venetians come with a 3-year warranty. With proper care, they can last 10 years or more, although older blinds may look dated over time.
