Classic Pleated Blinds

Since a well-known house blind specialist started selling "conservatory blinds" they have used the cheapest blind system with the cheapest fabrics, using the cheapest possible blind layout and the very cheapest subcontract fitting.

Despite the obvious clear difference in quality, customers find it hard to ignore the low prices, so we have reintroduced an updated version of our Classic Pleated Blinds.

These pleated blinds have been manufactured since the 1980's so the system and manufacturing tools are tried and tested. The only difference to the original Classic system is that it has a basic lay-flat cord integrated into the fabric to hold it flatter when retracted.

Only really suited for very wide blinds and for simpler shapes, it is possible to manufacture these blinds up to 2m wide (6' 6") but they required a much wider top apex (min. 100-500mm).

They are not ideal for recess-fitting to UPVC windows as the square-edged system leaves gaps against the curved glazing beads unless fitted within Perfect Fit frames.

As you would expect with such cheap pleated blinds, they are not washable and cannot be easily removed as they have a fixed tension operating system. Similarly, the supporting wires on roof blinds may need to be retensioned over time, as they stretch slightly.

Classic Pleated Blinds are only available with a subcontract fitting service (the same one that fits all of the blinds for online retailers) so your labour guarantee is limited to just 1 year (like all other retailers).

Despite not being particularly suited to conservatories, these blinds are sold by most other companies, so we also offer Classic Pleated Blinds as a budget alternative where you can save up to 50% off our purpose designed pleated blinds.
