Triangular Pleated Blind
A special form cut to the angle of the triangular frame. The blind of roof and gable windows.
Triangle Form Types
The standard rectangular mould does not apply here. Form symmetry decides the cutting method.
| Form | Geometry | Typical Application |
|---|---|---|
| Equilateral/Symmetrical | Two equal sides, apex in the middle | Attic gables, under arches |
| Right Triangle | One corner at 90° | Stairwells, beside sloped walls |
| Asymmetrical | All sides different | Free architectural forms. Template required |
Production Process
Four steps from template to mounting. Each one form-specific.
- 01
Template Taken
The window edges and corner angles are copied with a cardboard or digital template.
- 02
Fabric Cut
The pleated fabric is cut to the triangle mould. Sharp-angled corners are worked with tolerance.
- 03
Profile Mitred
The aluminium rail is mitre-cut to the corner angles and joined.
- 04
Mounting and Seating
The frame is fixed to the joinery. Edge seating is verified at all three corners.
Critical Points in Cutting
- On sharp-angled corners the fabric-cutting tolerance is decisive
- On fixed fills the tensioning keeps the fabric straight within the form
- On sashed triangular frames the opening direction decides the mounting
When Fixed, When Moving?
- Fixed fill is recommended on small and sharp-angled triangles
- Folding fabric works on symmetrical forms with a wide base
- On unreachable high forms the fixed solution asks no maintenance

This page is only the triangular form’s cutting template, mitred rail and configuration; which product and variant is right on triangular and trapezoid windows is compared in the application decision guide. The oval form is examined on the oval system.

Once the triangular form and measurement data are shared, the template and production plan are drawn up together.
