Do pleated blinds work on glazed (folding) balconies?

Yes. They are made to fit the balcony glazing profile and move with each glass panel when you fold the system open.

Why is the price range so wide?

The fabric (sheer, dim-out or blackout) and the system (single or double direction) set the price, which ranges from 1,000 to 4,000 TL/m². We confirm it at the visit.

Do pleated blinds block the sun completely?

With blackout fabric they block almost all light. For daytime use, most clients choose a dim-out fabric.

How do I clean pleated blinds?

Run a soft brush or a vacuum on low power over the fabric to remove dust. Dab marks gently with a damp cloth rather than rubbing, so the pleats keep their shape.

Can pleated blinds go on roof windows?

Yes. On sloping and skylight windows the fabric is held by tension cords on both sides so it does not sag. We always measure these windows on site.

Will they flap when the balcony glass is open?

A breeze can move a free-hanging blind. Tensioned systems keep the fabric fixed at both edges, which largely stops flapping and knocking against the glass.

Pleated Blinds Antalya | Glazed Balconies

The go-to choice for glazed balconies

Many sea-view apartments in Antalya have folding glass balconies. We make a pleated blind for each glass panel, so when you fold the glass back the blind folds with it. You keep the view and lose the midday glare.

Opens from the top and the bottom

Close the blind from the bottom up, or leave the top open and cover only the lower part – you still see the sky while passers-by cannot see in.

Fabric options

Sheer pleated: softens the light and keeps the view.
Dim-out: cuts the sun while keeping the room bright.
Blackout: full darkness for bedrooms and roof windows.

Single or double direction?

A single-direction system closes only one way – from the bottom up or the top down – and is the simpler, more economical option. With a double-direction system both the top and bottom rails move, so you can park the fabric anywhere on the window, even in the middle. On windows overlooked by a street or a neighbouring block, that flexibility makes a real difference. Because the system affects the price, we decide it window by window at the visit.

Measuring and fitting on balcony glazing

Each panel of a folding balcony system is measured separately, as the widths are not always identical. We fix the blind to the panel profile or the glass frame, so it slides and folds with the panel and never blocks the glazing. Fixed panes and ordinary windows take frame mounting, while roof and sloping windows use a tensioned system. That is why pleated blinds are always measured on site; for a rough idea beforehand, see our guide on how to measure windows for blinds.

Which fabric for which room?

In high-rise sea-view flats in Konyaaltı and Lara, the glazed balcony often becomes part of the living room, so a sheer or dim-out fabric that keeps the view is the usual pick. Balconies off a bedroom and attic rooms tend to get blackout. A home office does well with dim-out, which takes the glare off the screen without making the room gloomy.

Pleated or zebra?

For a standard, single-pane window, zebra blinds are worth considering too – you slide the bands to adjust the light. Pleated blinds win where the blind must sit on an opening sash, open from both ends or fit triangles, slopes and very narrow panes.

Motorised pleated blinds

On skylights and high windows you cannot reach, pleated blinds can be supplied as motorised blinds on a remote or wall switch. We plan the power supply together at the visit.
