Gable end blinds are a game-changer for unique windows. They provide a sleek and modern solution to cover unusual window shapes and sizes.

Gable end windows often have a triangular shape, which can be challenging to cover with traditional blinds. This is where gable end blinds come in, offering a tailored fit to these distinctive windows.

In many cases, gable end blinds can be custom-made to match the exact measurements of the window. This ensures a seamless fit and a polished look that complements the surrounding architecture.

Planning and Consultation

Planning and Consultation is a crucial step in choosing the right gable end blinds for your home. Inward opening doors or windows can limit your blind options, but Grants has designed solutions for such cases.

A consultation visit with their sales consultants will help you understand the design and technology choices involved. They'll take you through every step, explaining how the blinds will be built and why.

With shaped blinds, you'll need to consider the stack position when not in use, which may affect motorised provision.

Planning for Windows is a crucial step in the consultation process. It's essential to consider the functionality of your windows and doors before choosing the perfect blind solution.

If you have inward opening doors or windows, the options for blind installation are limited. Grants have, however, designed solutions for inward opening windows, so it's worth exploring those options.

The shape of your windows can also impact the type of blind you can install. Shaped blinds may work as bottom-up blinds or downwards, which can affect the stack position when not in use.

In some cases, motorized provision may need to be made to accommodate the unique requirements of your windows.
