Aluminum window RAL 7016, Raffstore RAL 9007?

Hello

since we are unsure, I am just asking here!

We have aluminum windows in color 7016 Anthracite. Do exterior blinds in color RAL 9007 fit?

We have seen a few blinds on other houses with a similar color, but were not sure if it was really RAL 9007..

It seemed a bit as if they had a very slight brown tone, and we did not like the look of it in combination with RAL 7016 Anthracite!

The RAL 9007 has an RGB value of: 135, 133, 129. That would also explain the brownish tint, and 7016 Anthracite RGB: 56, 62, 66 has a bluish tint.

If someone has this color combination, a photo would be very helpful!

Thanks!!

Only if both parts are from the same manufacturers you intend to use, because RAL is not Pantone (the search term "Pantone" in my posts will lead you to all threads where I have already explained this).

The RAL 9007 has an RGB value of: 135, 133, 129. That would also explain the brownish tint, and 7016 Anthracite RGB: 56, 62, 66 has a bluish tint.

These RGB values can only refer to representations of color approximations in brochures or on screens, because neither coating pigments nor laminates or coextrusions are mixed from inks or toner pigments. As a simplified basic rule, one could probably put it like this: the finer you want to match the colors of two adjacent elements, the more disappointed you will be with the result.

I came across this topic by chance.

We also have RAL 7016 (fine structure) for the windows and venetian blind frames. The C-louvers of the venetian blinds are also 9007 "gray aluminum."

We sampled this with the roller shutter fitter in the showroom and found no brown tones there. This RAL combination is one of the most common, the roller shutter installer told us. Also, 2x RAL 7016 was simply "too much," and the darker the louvers, the more susceptible they are to pollen. The 9007 on the louvers can just "glare" a bit more when the sun shines at the corresponding angle.

I always say, 7016 is the new standard ;-). You definitely got two things right already: 1. Sampling where you can hold both samples next to each other and 2. better intentionally two matching tones rather than "the same" (which won't be exactly possible anyway). That way you can better see that it is only supposed to be coordinated, and not a regrettably failed sameness.

Apart from the fact that this has been the trend among the general public in construction for years, it is really a timeless color. I would never choose and get excited about a conspicuous color for the exterior. I have already seen houses with turquoise blue roofs and yellow paint. That reminds me of puking horses or flying pigs - that doesn’t exist or shouldn’t exist :-D
Our front door outside, window frames and shutters on the upper floor are all RAL 7016, BUT with a fine texture. You don’t see a shade difference as clearly as on smooth surfaces. The blinds as mentioned are 9007, as are the window sills (which we actually only have on the upper floor because everything on the ground floor is floor-to-ceiling).
Anyone who really believes that the RAL 7016 of the roller shutter manufacturer absolutely matches the RAL 7016 of the window builder and the RAL 7016 of other trades in color would rather move into the aforementioned turquoise blue-yellow house :-D

If at all, then please specifically baulotsentürkis-11antengelb ;-) ... and that is exactly what I experience with pleasing regularity several times a year as forum reality: namely that builders discover that when researching THE "correct" RAL 7016, they find six to eight different color samples - and then soon fall from the clouds with shortness of breath when told that what they would get would even be the seventh to ninth variant (and it is not even conceivable to get a window frame anthracite that is guaranteed identical to the roof tile anthracite, even though both are called 7016).
