FENETRE Systems — Insect Screen and Pleated Blind Systems

Cased Pleated Blind

The form where fabric and mechanism work inside a closed aluminium cassette. The dust-protected, clean-lined upper segment.

What Is Inside the Cassette?

What shows when the cover opens is simple. Pleated fabric held by tension cords and the slim rail arrangement guiding it. The cassette’s job is to separate this mechanism from the outside world — to run it without dust, contact or visible hardware.

  • The cover hides the mechanism; the cassette surface stays clean
  • The fabric gathers inside the housing even when closed
  • Mounting connections are made from behind the cassette

What the Cassette Delivers

Six concrete advantages of the closed housing.

  • Dust ProtectionThe fabric stays inside the cassette. Cuts the maintenance load in busy spaces.
  • Clean LookThe mechanism is hidden. The blind reads as a single line on the window.
  • Pleat PreservationWith no outside contact the fabric’s folding form lasts long.
  • Service AccessThe cover opens and the unit is serviced if tension adjustment is needed.
  • Colour MatchThe cassette is produced in the same colour as the joinery from the profile chart.
  • Hidden FittingsMounting hardware stays behind the cassette. No visible screws.

Questions About the Cased Pleated Blind

What does the cased model add?
The fabric and tension cords work inside a covered housing. It is protected from dust, the pleat form is preserved and only a clean cassette line is seen on the window.
Does the cassette depth limit mounting?
The slim series is designed at a depth that fits the glazing bead and narrow niches. Surface tightness is determined at the measurement stage and the series is chosen.
Is inside-cassette maintenance needed?
Regular maintenance is done without opening the cover. If tension adjustment is needed the cover is opened by service and the inner mechanism is reached.
Does every fabric fit the cassette?
Standard and blackout fabrics suit the cassette volume. The right cassette series is recommended according to fabric thickness.

The darkening scenarios where the cased rail is preferred are detailed in the bedroom application; the measurement-based budget is worked out on the price calculator.
