INTEGRAL BLINDS

The SV blinds are manually operated sliding Venetian blinds that feature a single cleverly designed magnetic slider to control the whole operation. Positioned on a narrow slide guide on the edge of the sealed unit, this cordless slider integral blind control system allows the blind to be raised, lowered and tilted with ease completely cord free.

The patented magnetic system with raising and tilting function for Venetian blinds encapsulated within 20mm cavity double glazing units. SL20SV is operated by a magnetic slider, placed on the right or left-hand edge of the glass. A narrow adhesive transparent profile ensures the linear movement of the slider. The blind is encapsulated within the two glass panes of a double-glazed unit, with thermal efficiency optimised thanks to a warm edge spacer bar as standard. The closed-loop belt transmission system allows for smooth and long-lasting function of the blind, giving total reliability alongside peace of mind.

With this system, the slat raising, lowering and tilting function is achieved using a rotational magnetic transmission through the glass, thereby guaranteeing the double -glazed unit’s hermetic seal. One set of magnets is inserted in the blind head rail within the cavity and the other applied to the external glass surface. The external magnet, fixed to the internal glass by double-sided high-performance adhesive, allows perfect alignment with the internal magnet. This magnet principle does not compromise the unit seal and guarantees the perfect integrity of the double-glazing unit.

The Venetian blinds can be operated by a rotational cord winder attached at the top of the room-facing pane of the double-glazed unit. A continuous cord loop drives the external magnet, which controls the raising and lowering of the blind. The cord is held lightly under tension by a cord tensioner and fully complies with the British Blind and Shutter Association – ‘Make it Safe’ campaign.

There is also an option for C system blinds to be operated using a ‘wand’, which comprises a small pole attached at the top to the room-facing pane of the double glazes unit and twisted to open and close the blind. Please not that ‘wand’ operation can only function to tilt the blind and cannot be used to raise the blinds completely.
