Ceiling Duette Blind

Ceiling duo arrangement working on the horizontal glass surface. The double-layered answer for roof lights and winter gardens.

What Is Working on a Ceiling Like?

The biggest difference from the vertical is the tensioning arrangement fighting gravity.

On the ceiling panel the duo fabric sits parallel to the floor; gravity wants to pull it down. Tension cords running through both ends hold the panel on the plane — the system works under tension.

Roof glass is a home’s hottest spot: the summer sun strikes straight from above, in winter heat escapes upward fast. The double-layered duo gives both light and insulation control on this plane.

The motorised variant removes the reach problem on high ceilings; on the manual version the panel opens and closes with an extension rod.

Standout Parts of the System

Tension cords, twin rails and the duo panel are the system’s identity.

  • Horizontal TensionThe duo panel works on the horizontal plane; tension cords hold it against gravity.
  • Sun ShieldMeets the summer sun striking straight from above at the glass plane.
  • Double Layer on the CeilingAt the roof glass’s fastest heat-loss point the sheer and dark layers work.
  • Motorised OptionAt unreachable height the motor drive runs at a single touch.
  • Made to MeasureMeasured production for roof windows and winter-garden glass.

Which Opening Calls for the Ceiling?

The true ground of roof lights and winter gardens.

On a roof window the ceiling duo manages the summer’s solar load and the winter’s heat escape at the glass plane.

On the winter-garden ceiling the duo layer lengthens the season; the sheer filters by day, the dark layer brakes heat and glare.

On vertical wall windows the ceiling arrangement is unneeded; the vertical variant works in the right direction with the same fabric.

Frequently Asked

Does the ceiling duo sag?
Tension cords hold the panel on the plane; a wide opening wants an extra mid support.
Is electricity needed?
The manual version works with an extension rod; on the motorised version a rechargeable or wired motor is chosen.
Does the winter garden cover the whole ceiling?
A separate panel mounts to each glass module; the ceiling is solved module-by-module, not as one fabric.
Does it cut sunlight?
Near-total cut with the dark layer, filtering with the sheer layer.

The atrium and roof-glass types where the horizontal plane mounts are given in the roof-window application; angled slopes work on the sloped system.
