FENETRE Systems — Insect Screen and Pleated Blind Systems

Roof Window Venetian Blind

Venetian blind on the roof window: an honest limit — the free slat does not work on the horizontal plane; alternatives.

Roof Window Analysis

On the roof window the venetian’s limit is clear: on the horizontal plane the freely hanging slat is functionless — gravity works not for the fabric but against the slats and they cannot position properly. In this space the right system is the tensioned cellular or a special roof order; the venetian is evaluated only on a near-vertical angled window. The limit is not exaggerated and the right alternative is written openly.

Horizontal Limit

On horizontal glass the free slat cannot position properly; the product does not work on this plane.

Right Alternative

The tensioned cellular or a special roof order works on the horizontal.

Limit Split

On a near-vertical angled window the venetian is evaluated; not on the full horizontal.

Honesty

No product is advised on the unsuitable plane; the page’s function is the right routing.

Why the Venetian Does Not Work on the Horizontal

The roof window is a horizontal plane: the freely hanging slat separates from the glass with gravity and cannot position properly. The venetian is not functional on this plane — this is the page’s main answer.

The right solution is the tensioned cellular or a special roof order: the fabric is held inside the channel and works flat on the horizontal too.

The limit information is the page’s value: not advising the wrong product is also a service to the user; on a near-vertical angled window the venetian is evaluated again.
