Vanes rotate to any angle and stack aside completely, which is why they still own the widest openings.
Vertical blinds hang as long vanes from a top track. They rotate to any angle for light and privacy, and they stack right off the glass when you want the opening clear. On a five- or six-metre slider they remain the most practical thing we can fit: the weight is carried by the track, the vanes are individually replaceable, and dust falls off a vertical surface rather than settling on it.
Panel blinds take the same idea and make it architectural. Wide flat fabric panels glide across a multi-track, so a glass wall is covered in three or four clean planes instead of forty vanes. They double as a room divider, which is useful in the open-plan wings common in this suburb.
Both work in the same fabrics as our rollers, including sunscreen weaves, so a west-facing slider can keep its view while the glare comes down.
Practical notes
- 89mm and 127mm vanes; sunscreen, dim-out and blockout fabrics.
- Panel systems in two, three, four and five-track configurations.
- Chain-and-cord or wand control; motorised tracks available.
- Individual vanes can be replaced without redoing the whole blind.
