Floor to Ceiling Blinds For Apex Shaped Windows

Gable Blinds
Posted: 19 Aug 2022
Grand, tall windows can be a beautiful feature in any building. However, if you wish to shade that area then you may require a specialist for floor-to-ceiling blinds. At Specialist Blinds, we have developed market-leading  pureaspect™ gable blind technology to craft unique blinds for apex shaped windows. We first crafted this technology for use in gable-end conservatories and are still constantly developing our range of blinds for apex windows. Even for the largest of builds, we often only use only a small number of blinds to cover your glazing alongside any triangular window blinds.  We have even created blinds that cover not only the gable shape but extend below to cover the standard rectangular shape below – all with one blind. Whether that be blinds over their bi-fold doors or just blinds for large windows below.

Any Shaped Floor To Ceiling Window Blinds

Our blinds have been featured in many grand installations and even smaller unique ones. Below we have selected a few jobs where our technical ability shines through.

Arched Window Blinds

Many companies struggle to fit blinds to the arch of a window without leaving large gaps of excess material hanging over the exterior. For example, covering a circle window with a square blind. Our arched window blinds have been featured in grand cathedrals as we have been able to use our gable blind technology to fit over curved windows too. With the window below, we were able to cover the idea with just a single-blind, using the same techniques we’d use for a shaped roof blind or apex window blind.

Angled Window Blinds

Our blinds for angled windows are also very popular as some people have floor-to-ceiling windows in a room with a sloped ceiling. As you can see in the video below, our gable blinds fit corner-to-corner. We designed our gable blinds are designed to retract away as neatly as possible, with no visible cords or wires. Additionally, our blinds are barely visible at the edge of your window when fully retracted. So, your view remains intact and enjoyable!

Alternative companies would often leave a gap as they cannot fit a small enough triangular blind into the corner of the angle.

This customer chose to install automated blinds and connected them to a smart home device. We also offer remote-control blinds and battery-operated blinds.

Floor to Ceiling Blinds for Apex Shaped Windows

We are incredibly proud of our blinds for apex shaped windows, as it’s a solution that no other company can provide. As mentioned, our neat apex window blinds are often found above either windows or a set of folding doors.

We were able to provide this customer with a solution that covered their extremely large apex with just two electric gable blinds. They then opted for recess-fit manual Duette® bifold blinds on the doors below.

With blinds like these, you really do need a specialist. The high ceilings can often require a tower or scaffolding. Additionally, investing in bespoke blinds means that you are receiving the highest quality blinds that can last up to 10 years (with the right maintenance).

We often recommend electric blinds for those hard-to-reach areas like apex windows or over large areas of glazing like electric bi-fold door blinds.

Our Most Popular Fabrics For Blinds For Apex Shaped Windows:

  • Duette® Thermal Blinds: Have a honeycomb texture. They are great for providing an extra layer of insulation in the winter and reflecting away excess heat in the summer.
  • Pinoleum blinds: Have a traditional look but market-leading blind technology. The weave retains heat in the winter and keeps you cool during summer.
  • Pleated blinds: Our pleated blinds have similar qualities to pinoleum and Duette® when it comes to regulating temperature. We designed them for conservatory roofs initially and so are perfect for fitting in small triangle-shaped glazing.

Floor-to-ceiling blinds are often too large for standard blind companies to help with – especially if they are apex shaped. Get in touch with Specialist Blinds today to ensure you have the highest standard solution possible for your blinds.

Customer reviews

Excellent service and product... I would recommend this company. The sky light blind fits like a glove and the remote control allows us to move the blind easily. The surveyor was also the installer and think this made a huge different. I would go to this company again for any of my window blind needs!

Carried out efficiently and to high standard. Also we like the fact that this firm do not apply pressure sales techniques. We were given a very competitive quotation which was left with us to decide whether we wished to proceed.
