Handles for OpenUp System movable external blinds

OpenUp System's moving external blind brackets are the highest modular mechanism on the market for the construction of adjustable external blinds in wood and aluminium - 58.2 cm high and 6 slots per module.

The system allows you to create movable decking boards in pergolas, gazebos, balconies and commercial developments.

It allows the smooth movement of wooden boards or aluminium lamellas without the use of an electric drive. It is a manual, durable and predictable installation solution - particularly appreciated by contractors.

What is the mechanism for moving boards?

The mechanism for moving boards is a set of two brackets (left + right), which enable the construction of adjustable external blinds in wood or aluminium.

Movable arms with slots for boards or slats are embedded in the brackets. The rotation of the handles allows the angle of all the lamellas in a module to be changed at the same time.

The system works manually - no electricity, no cables, no springs.

Key parameters of the OpenUp System mechanism

• height of one module: 58.2 cm
• number of sockets: 6
• material: polypropylene reinforced with fibreglass
• installation: vertical or horizontal
• possibility to combine modules into a higher wall

The OpenUp System provides the largest coverage area among plastic systems, with one module covering as much as 58.2 cm in height.

Further modules are mounted one above the other to form a full louvre wall.

Why do installation companies choose OpenUp System?

The module height of 58.2 cm has a direct bearing on pricing and working time.

With a wall height of 220-250 cm, this means:

• fewer connections between modules,
• fewer attachment points to the structure,
• fewer elements to level,
• shorter installation time on site,
• less risk of backlash and subsequent complaints.

The higher the build, the more pronounced the difference in the number of modules needed - a real saving in man hours and material.

The handles are designed and manufactured in Poland. This means continuity of supply, dimensional repeatability and the ability to carry out major projects without the risk of stock shortages.

What does the set of movable brackets for external blinds for the terrace contain?

• pair of handles (left + right),
• clips to connect the modules,
• assembly instructions.

Handle dimensions: 9.8 × 2 × 58.2 cm
Material: Refined polypropylene (with added glass fibre)

What materials do the handles work with?

The handles are structurally matched to:

• wooden boards with a cross-section of 9.8 × 2 cm (max. length 110 cm),
• aluminium fins with a cross section of 9.9 × 1.95 cm
  - up to 200 cm when mounted horizontally,
  - up to 250 cm when vertically mounted.

The precise dimensional fit eliminates the „teething” effect and ensures even operation of the entire wall.
