Blinds for Tilt and Turn Windows

If you have tilt and turn windows installed in your home you will have experienced first-hand how hard it can be to find a suitable window covering. The main difficulty is finding a covering which will allow you to open and close your window without causing any obstructions.

In terms of blinds, you traditionally have two options, the most effective of which is to fix the blinds to the frame of the window instead of the recess, this allows you to open and close the window, the blinds moving with the window. However, because the blinds are not always secured at the bottom they will always hang completely vertical, even if your window is tilted open.

The second option is to fit the blinds to the recess as you would with a normal window. Unfortunately, if you did this you may not be able to open the window because the blinds would collide with the window.

Luckily, we now have several solutions to this problem.

Louvolite's Perfect Fit and INTU by Eclipse are both “no drill” blind systems that clip to the window frame to literally become part of the window. So when you open or tilt the window, the blinds will move with it, completely secured by the Perfect Fit or INTU frame, not dangling, banging or clattering. This allows you to have your window open or closed and your blinds will still be fully functional.

Perfect Fit and INTU blinds are available in roller, pleated, wooden Venetian and aluminium Venetian blind types. Browse our full collection below of blinds for tilt and turn windows.

Single Pleated

Single Pleated Blinds use the traditional single layer fabrics that we've all seen for many years in conservatories. They are a cost effective solution to solar shading and privacy. Many of our single pleat fabrics, including the REFLEX range, have solar reflective coatings on the rear of the fabric, which reduce glare and reject heat. For those looking to darken the room, take a look at our NIGHTSHADE fabrics. Our PINSTRIPE collection provides shade and privacy wiith a modern narrow stripe pattern.

DUOSHADE Cellular Translucent Blinds

Energy Efficient and with no visible holes for the lifting cords. Cellular (a.k.a Honeycomb or Duette fabrics) are fast overtaking single pleat fabrics as the most popular choice for pleated blinds. Cellular fabrics consist of double layered cells of fabric which acts as an insulating cushion between the inside of your home or conservatory and the outside world - keeping heat in during winter months and keeping your property cool in summer! Lifting cords run through the middle of the honeycomb structure, meaning there are no visible holes in the surface of the fabric. All fabrics are a uniform white in colour on the exterior face, and coloured on the inside face. Translucent fabrics allow a soft diffused light in whilst maintaining privacy and controlling glare and heat!

Frequently Asked Questions about Blinds for Tilt and Turn Windows

How do you cover a window that opens inwards?

If you wish to cover the full recess of window that opens inwards then you will need to select a blind that retracts or draws clear of the window recess in order that you can still open and close the window. It is important to remember to install these blinds outside the recess or far enough away from the window to allow the window to tilt open completely. Examples of blinds that can be installed around the recess and easily drawm clear are vertical blinds, roller blinds and roman blinds. Alternatively, you may wish to install a blind directly to the opening window frame.

 

Can you put blinds on a tilt and turn window?

Perfect Fit blinds or INTU Blinds are the best option for tilt-and-turn windows because they clip-fit directly to the opening window pane rather than dangling in front of it. This means that the blinds don’t need to be raised in order to open or close the window. The panes can be pushed out even if the blinds are closed. What’s more INTU or Perfect Fit blinds do not require drilling or screwing. They clip onto brackets that are inserted between the glass and the beading of the inward opening window.

 

How does the tilt mechanism work on blinds?

The slats of a venetian blind are adjusted in angle and tilted open and closed by twisting a tilt wand in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. Threading connects the tilt mechanism to a tilt wand or cord, which can be used to adjust the slats' angle. 


Is it better to put blinds inside or outside of the window?

Except in cases where the depth of the window or other barriers make it impossible, 95% of individuals should opt for an inside mount. Allowing for such obstructions, there needs to be sufficient remaining space within the recess for the brackets to be securely fastened and for the blinds to operate. An inward opening window is an example of an application where it probably won’t be possible to hang a blind inside of the window recess because the window would usually tilt open into and possibly beyond the recess. In situations like this, it would be better to either install the blind either outside of the recess or directly to the window.

 

Can I fit UPVC shutters to tilt and turn windows?

Answer: Yes, you can fit UPVC shutters to tilt and turn windows. Perfect Fit shutters are a type of shutter that is made of PVC, a durable and weather-resistant material. They are a good choice for tilt-and-turn windows because they can be opened and closed with the window, providing both privacy and security.
 

Can I install blinds on solar-powered Velux windows?

Yes, you can install blinds on solar-powered Velux windows. Solar powered Velux windows have a small solar panel that charges a battery, which powers the window's opening and closing mechanisms. Since the solar panel is on the top of the window frame, blinds won't block it.

 

Can I get blinds fitted to windows that open inward?

Yes, you can get blinds fitted to windows that open inward. Perfect Fit blinds and INTU blinds are specifically designed for this type of window. They snap directly into the beading of your UPVC window frame, so there's no need for drilling or screws. This makes them a quick and easy way to add privacy and shading to your windows.
 

Can I fit wooden shutters myself?

Yes, you can fit wooden shutters yourself if you have a high level of competence. If not, we would recommend enlisting the services of a joiner or a shutter company who is able to offer a full survey and installation service. The best solution, if you are looking for that plantation shutter look with DIY installation, are our ‘no drill’ Perfect Fit Shutter blinds, which can be found at the lnk above. They are installed using simple brackets which clip into the window beading of uPVC windows and doors. Measuring and installation is really straight forward!
 

Are there easy to install blinds with no drilling available for tilt and turn windows?

Yes, there are a few different types of blinds that can be installed easily on tilt and turn windows without drilling. INTU and Perfect Fit blinds use mounting brackets that slide under the beading of your tilt and turn window. The blinds simply clip fit to these brackets. Once installed they move with the tilt and turn panel of your window. With a little planning and effort, you can easily install blinds on your tilt and turn windows without drilling.
 

Are made-to-order roof lantern blinds available?

Yes, made-to-order roof lantern blinds are available. Please see our website for detailed measure instructions we even have a measure video for you to see - Once the order is placed we will be in touch to take the detailed information off the measure from so we can ensure these are truly a bespoke made perfect fit for you.
