Application

Where blinds can't rely on gravity to function, rooflight blinds come in.


Perfect for Skylights, Lantern Blinds, and any other form of horizontal or angled glazing.

Description

KuroLok RL - Top quality tensioned rooflight blinds. Two tensioned spring boxes stretch the fabric tight across the blind area to massively reduce fabric sagging.


Sizes

  • Max Width: 3000mm
  • Max Drop: 6000mm
  • Max Surface Area: 18m2.


This is the maximum size on a twin system where two blinds meet in the middle, if you want only one blind, max width stays the same, drop goes down to 5500mm, and surface area is reduced to 10 meters squared.


Motors

We work with a varied range of motors, with Somfy and Nice options being among our most commonly used.


With this range, you can make use of hardwired or radio power and hardwired, radio, or digital controls.


Controls

When looking at controls for blinds, there are three main categories: Hardwired, Radio, and Smart.


Hardwired - Used for either physical switches on the wall, or wired directly into your smart home or BMS system. Hardwired control is always more reliable than radio over long distances.


Radio - Available either as small handsets with neat wall mounts, or as wall fixed switches. Radio offers a simple and flexible control option, ideal for smaller or retrofit projects.


Digital - The ultimate choice for intelligent control, with 2 way communication between blinds and controllers. providing features like infinitely customisable configuration at anytime, hembar alignment and straightforward wiring.


Fabric

We can supply blinds with fabric from any major supplier, meaning you have the choice between nearly any of the popular ranges.


You can browse our core and partner ranges here: Our Fabric Range.


We offer choices of sheer, screen, dimout, and blackout fabrics for a wide array of textures and styles.


Automation

Your blinds can be integrated into nearly any smart home system on the market. Whether that's Lutron, Control4, Savant, Crestron, KNX or anything else, there's a way to integrate with it.


This is great as it means that your blinds won't just be operating on their own, but will be able to share information with other smart home features like the lighting or heating.


There's a near infinite number of things that can be achieved with Integration.


For instance on a residential project a custom scene that dims the lights and shuts the curtains when you begin watching a movie could be created


In the commercial sector, automation could be in charge of maximizing heating while making sure that glare levels remain optimal.


Powder Coating

In-house powder coating means that you can choose any RAL colour for your hardware.


This means your blinds can seamlessly blend into or compliment any project.
