What you need to know about patio blinds
Are you thinking about blinds for your terrace? Do you want to make them into built-ins?
Wondering how to do it? We will tell you how you can make your own movable external blinds. We will explain how to order handles for movable blinds for the terrace.
How do the handles for the movable patio blinds work?
Each pair of OpenUpSystem handles consists of two mirrored profiles: left and right. Each has pre-drilled holes that will make it easy to attach the handles to the supporting structure. The sockets fixed on the profile hold the board and allow it to move.
With the help of special locks, the profiles connect to form modular built-in walls. This allows you to set them up with a single hand movement.
Brackets for movable external blinds OpenUpSystem allow the boards to be fixed vertically and horizontally as required.
Terrace cladding with external blinds: wood or aluminium?
We offer adjustable blinds in wood or aluminium. When choosing the building material, think about why you want to cover the terrace. It will be easier for you to decide which form of built-in material to opt for. The most common reasons are:
- the need to screen the terrace from the wind
- reduction in temperature on hot days
- protection of the terrace from rain and snow
- extension of the living room into the garden
- increase in living space
- desire to isolate themselves from their neighbours.
Wood is an easy material to work with. It is readily available, lightweight, easy to care for and paint. As a versatile and natural material, it matches glass, stone, metal and concrete. It has versatile uses. It is also affordable.
Wooden exterior blinds effectively protect against sun, wind and rain. When closed, they guarantee a sense of security. Set in the open position, they allow air to circulate freely. They protect garden furniture from adverse weather conditions. Adjustable blinds refer to the Mediterranean style, which is associated with comfort and convenience. It is not only an elegant and designer solution, but also a protection against wind and heat.
Aluminium is certainly more durable than wood. Lightweight, it requires no maintenance or care beyond simple cleaning. If you want to give your patio a modern designer look, aluminium would be an excellent choice. Especially as it is a choice for many years to come.
Aluminium external blinds have similar advantages to timber. They also protect from the weather and can be similarly adjusted. They are comfortable and elegant.
