Easy to use, Venetian Blinds allow you to open and close the blades to any position and control the direction of sunlight throughout your room or home. They can be recessed or face fitted, meaning the Venetian Blinds can be installed inside the window frame or on the architrave bordering the window. In addition, Venetian Blinds can be locked into position at the bottom using a pin and bracket system which makes them suitable for glass doors or windows which are frequently opened and closed.
