# Prefab House Pleated Blind

Pleated blind in the prefab house. Mounting suiting the light structure, a compact fit on non-standard joinery and easy portability.

## Prefab House Analysis

The prefab house’s wall does not carry a reinforced-concrete wall’s load. The window joinery is also often at a non-standard measurement. The pleated blind lifts the wall load with on-joinery mounting. With its light structure it fits the module joinery. If the house moves, the blind is unmounted and refitted.

### Suits the Light Structure

On-joinery and hook mounting does not load the wall’s carrying capacity. Sandwich-panel walls are not drilled.

### Module-Joinery Fit

The pleated blind is custom-fitted to the prefab manufacturers’ standard window measurements.

### Fast Application

In prefab houses where the setup finishes fast, the blind mounting finishes within minutes with a drill-free connection.

### Portability

If the prefab structure moves, the hook mounting unmounts without a mark and is fitted to the new joinery.

## Carrying Load and Mounting Form in Prefab Structures

In a prefab house and a container the wall section is thin. Plasterboard or sandwich panel does not carry the screw and plug load like concrete. The pleated blind’s unit weight is low compared to roller and wooden systems. The on-joinery connection gives the load to the case instead of the wall. Therefore it is the first system looked at in a light structure.

The mounting form changes by the case material. On PVC and aluminium joinery the [glazing-bead](https://www.fenetresystems.com/en/glazing-bead-pleated-blind/) or [hook](https://www.fenetresystems.com/en/hook-mounted-pleated-blind/) connection wants no wall drilling. On a wooden case a thin screw is enough. If panel-wall mounting is a must, a toggle plug or a screw landing on the frame line is used. The decision is provided by seeing the wall section at measurement.

The prefab structure being movable is also accounted for. If the structure moves, the on-joinery unit is unmounted and fitted to the same joinery at the new location. A wall-fixed system leaves marks on the old structure. This flexibility makes the pleated blind a practical choice in site housing and temporary living space.

The climate condition hardens in the prefab structure. The thin wall carries the inside-outside temperature difference to the glass surface, producing condensation. Moisture-series fabric is the standard choice here. In winter while the inside-outside difference is high, the blind is left open and the glass surface airs.

In site and worker housing the unit count grows. The measurement list is taken in bulk from the joinery plan. The measurement repeating on the same case type returns to serial production. This approach lowers the cost and the mounting duration.

The prefab structure’s thermal character makes the blind functional. The thin wall’s thermal bridge is on the glass surface. The closed fabric reduces heat loss in winter and the solar load in summer. The small volume’s air-conditioning load drops with this buffer.

In prefab housing the blind builds the living feel beside privacy. On the hard interior surface of a container or panel, a single-colour fabric softens the space. Eye-level control is provided with two-way opening.

In the prefab house’s transport the blind calendar is separate. The unit is fitted after the house settles in place. The flexing during transport can affect the connection point. Once the setup finishes, the joinery measurement is verified again.

In the small prefab plan the window serves a single volume. In the combined living-kitchen area the unit covers both daytime light and evening privacy. The [day-night model](https://www.fenetresystems.com/en/day-night-pleated-blind/) does two jobs in a single volume.

The panel wall’s load limit chooses the mounting hardware. In the joinery gap between steel frames the screw grip is low. The on-joinery connection [gives the load to the case](https://www.fenetresystems.com/en/pleated-blind-installation-types/), no extra load falls on the panel surface.

When an expansion module is added to the prefab house the existing unit stays. The unmounted unit is moved to the new module’s joinery. If the case type is the same, no reproduction is needed. Modular growth shows the blind’s reuse advantage.

Application Notes

## Mounting & Selection for Prefab House

### Panel-Wall Connection

An on-joinery connection is taken instead of screws on the panel wall. The joinery type is verified before the application.

### Non-Standard Measurement

Prefab windows carry off-series measurements. The net opening and the case measurement are sent together.

### Thin-Wall Insulation

In thin-walled prefab structures the thermal bridge is at the window. The cellular-fabric option provides extra insulation.
