Buyer's Guide
for aluminium venetian blinds

Aluminium Venetian Blinds are a stylish addition to any home or office. These blinds will boost the elegance of your space and enhance its décor whether it's modern or traditionally inspired.

The surface layer of the metal used in crafting these blinds is protected by aluminium oxide, therefore your blinds won’t rust. This makes them perfect for rooms where they may get wet - bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms in particular. Despite its lightweight, aluminium is also very durable and flexible, making it a great investment without compromising on style.

Fun fact - aluminium is the most abundant metal in the world and the process in which it's extracted is more eco-friendly than many other materials. Since aluminium can be recycled many times over, adding a Aluminium Venetian blind to your home will also improve its eco-friendliness!

When the time comes to order your Aluminium Venetian blind, you’ll be given two selections for the fitting type – recess and exact. These options relate to where in your window your made-to-measure blind will hang.

Inside Window (Recess) This measurement is required if your new blind is to fit inside the window recess. For total accuracy, measure the width and drop from three different positions ensuring you provide the smallest measurement. From there, our team will make the necessary deductions ensuring the blind fits neatly within the recess of your window.

Outside Window (Recess) Exact size is the measurement needed for blinds that will hang outside the recess, overlapping the window. Choose how much to overlap the recess at each side, we recommend at least 7.5cm each side, as well as the top and bottom. As with recess measurements, measure the width and the drop in three separate positions ensuring you provide the smallest measurement.
