      Roman blind - a guide

      What are the characteristics of a Roman blind?

      Roman blind  is a type of window covering that is both decorative and functional. This roller blind has a special mechanism that allows you to raise it up and lower it down, creating different levels of covering. You can adjust the height of the roller blind as needed to let more or less light into the room. When the Roman blind is raised, it turns into even folds that add elegance to the interior. We have a range of fabrics to choose from, from light and transparent fabrics that allow natural light to come in, to heavier ones that provide more privacy and darken the room. The Roman blind gives us a lot of flexibility, as it can be mounted either on the wall or inside the window, depending on your preference.

      This is a traditional type of Roman blind, which consists of fabric that rises to form even folds. The blind is raised and lowered by a chain or cord.

      Roman blind with a valance

      This variation of the Roman blind has an additional valance or lambrequin at the bottom, which gives it a more decorative look. The valance can be made of the same material as the roller blind or of a different, contrasting fabric.

      Roman blind with automatic drive

      Roman blinds with automatic drive allow you to raise and lower the it using remote controls, mobile apps or timed programming. These are more technically advanced and convenient solutions.

      Roman blind with blackout fabric

      It is made of moisture-resistant materials, making it ideal for bathrooms or kitchens where there is high humidity.

      Installation of the Roman blind

      Roman blinds can be mounted in several different ways, depending on your preferences and the type of window. Here are some of the most popular ways to install Roman blinds:

      Wall

      This is the most common way to mount a Roman blind. In this case, the curtain rod or slat is mounted on the wall above the window, and the blind is attached to the curtain rod with hooks or clips. This is a simple and elegant method of installation that does not require drilling holes in the window frame.

      Ceiling

      If you do not want to mount the blind on the wall, you can choose to mount it on the ceiling. In this case, a curtain rod or slat is mounted on the ceiling above the window, and the blind is hung from the ceiling. This mounting method is especially useful if you have large windows or patio doors.

      Window frame

      Roman blind can also be mounted directly on the window frame. In this case, the curtain rod or slat is attached to the window frame itself with special brackets. This mounting method is more embedded and can be chosen for smaller windows.

      Window doors

      If you have windows in the form of patio or balcony doors, Roman blinds can be mounted directly on the door.

      Composite mounting

      Some Roman blinds are available in composite mounting systems. This means that they are designed for specific types of windows, such as sloped or roof windows. These mounting systems allow the blind to fit exactly to the window.
