Integral Blinds

The Ultimate in Style, Privacy & Convenience

Unmatched Privacy, Shading, and Convenience

When it comes to choosing the best window and door shading solution, integral blinds offer a sleek, modern, and practical alternative to traditional blinds and curtains. Sealed within the double-glazed unit, they provide unmatched privacy, shading, and convenience without the hassle of maintenance.

What Are Integral Blinds?

Integral blinds are built inside the glass unit of windows and doors, making them completely enclosed and protected from dust, damage, and everyday wear. This innovative design ensures that they:

Never need cleaning – No dust or dirt buildup.
Remain sleek and uncluttered – No external blinds or bulky fittings.
Are highly durable – Protected from accidental damage.
Improve energy efficiency – The sealed cavity helps retain heat.

Available for PVC-U, aluminium, and timber window and door frames, integral blinds provide a minimalist, high-performance shading solution for any property.

2 Types of Integral Blinds

1. Venetian Integral Blinds

Featuring slimline slats, Venetian integral blinds fit comfortably between the glass panes of standard 20mm, 22mm, or 27mm double-glazed units. For older windows and doors with 16mm cavities, a slimline Venetian option is available, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of installations.

2. Pleated Integral Blinds

For those who prefer a softer, fabric-style shading solution, pleated integral blinds offer elegant folds that neatly retract when raised. Available in a variety of colours and blackout options, they are ideal for nurseries, bedrooms, and spaces with light sensitivity concerns.

Operating Systems for Integral Blinds

Professional installers will fit the integral blind unit just like a regular glass unit, with additional steps for mounting the control system. For motorised systems, electrical integration is simple and efficient, making them home automation-ready.
