Exterior blinds for shading in summer

2021-03-31 16:52:42

Hello everyone,

who of you has external blinds and what is your experience with them? Our living room will face south and accordingly, the heat protection in summer naturally worries me. We are now considering using external blinds instead of roller shutters as a shading measure. How sensitive are they to wind with one-meter-wide windows? What about burglary protection? Do they help much more than roller shutters regarding sun protection and at the same time allow a clear view of the garden?

We are now considering using exterior blinds instead of roller shutters as a shading measure. How sensitive are they to wind on one-meter-wide windows? What about burglary protection? Do they help much more than roller shutters regarding sun protection while still allowing a clear view of the garden?

I bet that and can help you with that.

Of course, venetian blinds are more sensible than roller shutters if you don't want to sit in the dark in summer. I would never want to be without them again. We also have a full south-facing side from the living room to the garden. They usually withstand wind well, of course it depends on the conditions, in an exposed location you may have to be careful, but your window installer will tell you that.

Neither takes much when it comes to burglary protection. Neither roller shutters nor venetian blinds offer any protection. Both will be on the lawn within 3 seconds if it has to be quick.

I don’t believe so, I am actually looking forward to a lot of sun in the living room (on the south side). We will get roller shutters, but if at all, they will be lowered at night.

Yes, that's correct, it takes 7-12 seconds depending on the type of [Rollladen].
