The benefit
Roof windows heat up strongly and are hard to shade. Guided aluminium venetian blinds solve heat, glare and privacy in one.
Aluminium reflects part of the solar radiation — the heat does not build up under the roof. The room stays noticeably cooler than behind bare glass.

Via the slat angle you dose the incoming light degree by degree — from bright to strongly darkened, glare-free at the desk under the roof.

On the sloping roof the venetian blind is guided at the sides, so that the covering does not sag and sits neatly in every position — even with the window open.

Aluminium does not swell and is wipeable with a damp cloth — ideal for roof windows in bathroom and kitchen under the roof, where fabric quickly reaches its limits.

Buying advice
Roof windows are a special challenge: they are angled, directly exposed to the sun and strongly heat up the room below in summer. On Aluminium Venetian blind is ideal here because it partly reflects the radiation and at the same time doses the light steplessly.
Important is the guided mounting. Because the window lies at an angle, a freely hanging covering would sag. The venetian blind is therefore held laterally in guide rails, so that it rests neatly against the glass in every position — even with the window tilted. We clarify the right guide system for your window type at the consultation.
About the slat angle you regulate light and glare degree by degree. This is especially valuable under the roof, where the sun travels a lot across the day — at the workplace the screen stays glare-free without it getting dark.
A practical plus: aluminium is moisture-resistant and wipeable. This also makes the venetian blind suitable for roof windows in the bathroom and kitchen, where moisture and steam would take their toll on a fabric covering.
Which guide system and slat width suit your roof window is best clarified on site: during the free home consultation in the canton of Zurich we take the measurements and bring samples.

Frequently asked questions
Yes — it is guided at the sides, so that the covering does not sag and rests neatly against the glass in every position, even with the window tilted. We clarify the right guide system depending on the window type.
Yes. Aluminium slats reflect part of the solar radiation, so that the heat builds up less in the room. Light-coloured slats are most effective; closed during the day they keep the room noticeably cooler.
The venetian blind darkens strongly, but a fine seam of light remains at the slat edges. For nearly complete darkness under the roof, a guided Blackout roller blind is the more consistent solution.
Very well. Aluminium is moisture-resistant and wipeable, does not swell and does not go mouldy — ideal for roof windows in the bathroom and kitchen, where fabric coverings quickly reach their limits.
That depends on window size, guide system and slat width. In the Venetian blind configurator you can calculate a guide price — no registration needed. A binding quotation follows at the home consultation.
