FENETRE Systems — Insect Screen and Pleated Blind Systems

Attic Curtain

Curtain in an attic: the ceiling blind and the tensioned roller work on sloped glazing; normal type on the vertical mansard.

Attic Curtain Analysis

In an attic the curtain is selected with the plane distinction: on sloped roof glazing free fabric sags — only the tensioned roller or the ceiling blind works; on the vertical mansard window the normal type selection applies. In sleep-aimed use blackout fabric cuts the morning light.

Slope

On sloped glazing free fabric sags; tensioned/ceiling is a must.

Mansard

On the vertical window the normal type selection applies.

Heat

The roof sun comes intense; the cutting variant determines.

Plane distinction under the roof

In an attic there are two window types: the vertical mansard and the sloped roof. On the mansard the normal type selection applies; on sloped glazing free fabric sags — a tensioned or ceiling blind is a must.

In sleep-aimed use the blackout variant cuts the morning light; at the high position the motor solves access.
