Bay Window Roller Blinds

Frequently Asked Questions about Bay Window INTU Roller Blinds

What are bay window roller blinds?

Bay window roller blinds are window coverings designed specifically to fit bay windows. INTU roller blinds are a great solution for bay windows as they clip fit into the beading of the window itself, directly against the glass and frame - you don’t need to drill or screw. They are operated by a handle on the hem bar.

Are bay window roller blinds difficult to install?

Installation of bay window roller blinds can be a bit more complicated than blinds in standard windows, but they are still relatively easy to install with proper measurements and the right tools. The key thing is to ensure that they are measured correctly since you have multiple blinds installed in a single recess with each positioned at an angle to the other.
This is why we recommend INTU roller blinds for bay windows since blinds are clip fitted directly to each pane of the window without the need for drilling or screwing. You simply measure the glass size and beading depth, rather than having to measure within the recess and consider the position of other blinds in the same bay.

Bay window roller blinds are available in a wide variety of fabrics, including sheer, privacy, blackout, and light-filtering or light-reflective materials. You can choose from an extensive range of colors, materials and patterns to match your home decor.
