The need

Light, heat, and privacy.

With a made-to-measure blind, you control light, heat and visibility.

Describe my openings
Too much light
You set the blind at the height you want to control the light.
The heat of the sun
The blind keeps the sun out, indoors and outdoors alike.
Prying eyes
You decide what can be seen from outside and keep your privacy.
An exposed terrace
Our outdoor blinds for terraces, pergolas and gardens are made from materials that stand up to the weather.
An interior to dress
You choose the style, colour and material, and the blind decorates the room.

Cassette Fitted at the head of the opening, it houses the fabric rolled on its tube.

Fabric A blackout fabric makes the room dark, a light-filtering fabric softens the light, and some let you see through.

Side channels On each side, they guide the fabric; the bottom bar keeps it taut.

Exterior blind Fitted in front of the glazing, it stops the sun before it comes in.

Operation Motorised control is an option, indoors and outdoors alike.

The blind, in context

You control the light.

  1. In the morning, the sun is still in the east. The blinds stay up and the view is clear. In the morning, the blinds stay up.
  2. At noon, it is at its highest, due south. The south blinds come down: the sun stays outside. At noon, the south blinds come down.
  3. In the late afternoon, it comes in from the west. As the fabric comes down, the patch of sun shrinks. At 5 pm, the sun comes in from the west.
  4. In the evening, it skims the horizon. With the fabric down, it no longer dazzles. In the evening, fabric down, no more glare.

Awnings and blinds in Bastia

What changes in Bastia.

Raised paved terrace at sunset, wooden sofa with terracotta cushions under a large parasol, round coffee table, two sun loungers, potted olive trees, low stone walls, the harbour and a twin-towered church in the distance.
Illustration a roof terrace at sunset
  1. The balcony

    Little space, plenty of sun.

    A Bastia balcony is often narrow. There is no room for a parasol: the shade has to come from the wall or the ceiling. A cassette awning is fixed there, and the fabric retracts into its cassette when not in use.

    Pratic’s T-Hide, T-Code, T-Way and Flex Box awnings are fitted to the wall or the ceiling, so they can be hung under the balcony above. Their aluminium cassette carries LED lighting, useful on a balcony where you dine late.

  2. The exposed side

    Closing the side that catches the wind.

    The morning sun comes in low, head-on, under the projection of an awning. A vertical blind cuts it better: it comes down in front of the window or closes one side of the balcony. On zip screens, the fabric is held in its side channels by a zip and does not flap in the wind.

    Bandalux rates its Z-Box 6 for wind under the EN 13561 standard. Roma states wind resistance up to 120 km/h for its fabric blinds, depending on their size and mounting. Pratic highlights its Magnetic Lock System, which re-engages the fabric of a vertical blind after a gust.

    See the Bandalux blinds
  3. Shared ownership

    The fabric the building will accept.

    In a shared building, the awning can be seen from the street and affects the façade. The rules sometimes impose a fabric colour or a type of awning for the whole building: better to know before choosing, and to talk to the managing agent.

    For the fabric, Serge Ferrari intends its Soltis 96 for awnings: micro-perforated, it lets air through and keeps the view towards the harbour. For vertical blinds, it states up to 87% of heat blocked with Soltis 86, a maximum specific to certain colours.

Your questions, our answers.

Do you install awnings in Bastia?

Yes. We offer Pratic awnings with Serge Ferrari fabrics, and we install them in Bastia as everywhere in Corsica, after a technical visit at your home.

Which awning or blind for a small apartment balcony?

An awning fixed to the ceiling or the wall, if there is room to open it; otherwise a vertical blind, which comes down in front of the window without taking any floor space. Our made-to-measure awnings and blinds page presents all the types.

Will an awning stand up to the libeccio in Bastia?

It depends on the awning and the balcony. Pratic highlights its FlexControl patent on its arm awnings; Bandalux rates its Z-Box 6 zip screen for wind under the EN 13561 standard. During the visit, we look at the exposure and the wind your façade receives.

Do you need the managing agent’s agreement to fit an awning in Bastia?

In a shared building, often yes: the awning changes the look of the façade. Check the building’s rules, which sometimes set the colour of the fabrics, before choosing yours.

How much does an awning cost in Bastia?

Each awning is made to measure: its price depends on the model, the dimensions and the options. It is given on quotation, after the technical visit. You can already draw yours in the awning configurator.

How can I contact you to discuss my sun protection or outdoor design project?

Our team answers your questions and presents our services. You can reach us in three ways:
