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 Porto-Vecchio

What changes in Porto-Vecchio.

Stone-paved terrace in late-afternoon light: wood and rope sofas with rust cushions, blue ceramic coffee tables, two sun loungers under a cantilever parasol, a granite boulder, pines; in the distance, a gulf and an old town on its hill.

  1. The awning

    Shade that folds away.

    An awning is the simplest answer for a terrace against the house, a balcony or a flat near the harbour. Extended, it covers the table in the hot hours; retracted into its cassette, it hides nothing the rest of the time.

    We install Pratic T-Hide, T-Code, T-Way and Flex Box awnings, wall or ceiling mounted, with LED lighting in the cassette. For the fabric, Serge Ferrari recommends its Soltis 96: micro-perforated, it lets air through, so heat does not stay trapped underneath.

    See the awning
  2. Windows and sides

    In front of the window, at the side.

    When the sun is low, in the morning or late in the day, an awning is no longer enough: the rays pass underneath. You need a vertical fabric. A zip screen drops in front of a window or closes off one side of a terrace; its fabric, held in the side channels by a zip, does not flap in the wind.

    Bandalux rates its Z-Box 6 for wind under the EN 13561 standard, and makes a solar version with no wiring. Roma states that its zipSCREEN.2 covers up to 18 m². On the fabric side, Serge Ferrari states that Soltis 86 blocks up to 87% of the heat while keeping the view outside.

    See the Bandalux blinds
  3. Rental house

    Easy to operate, for everyone.

    In a house let for the summer, the awning is used by people seeing it for the first time. Motorised control, available as an option, avoids forced cranks. For gusts, Pratic highlights two patents: FlexControl on its arm awnings, and Magnetic Lock System on its vertical screens, which re-engages the fabric after a gust of wind.

    Indoors too, the light can be adjusted: a blackout blind in the bedrooms, a roller blind in front of a large window, a venetian blind to keep the view. During the technical visit, we go round the openings with you and look at the exposure of each façade.

Your questions, our answers.

Do you install awnings in Porto-Vecchio?

Yes, as everywhere in Corsica. From our showroom in Porticcio, we come to your home for the technical visit, then our team installs the awning. We offer Praticawnings, with Serge Ferrarifabrics.

Awning or zip screen for a terrace in Porto-Vecchio?

An awning gives shade over the terrace when the sun is high. A zip screen drops vertically, in front of a window or along one side, when the sun comes in low. Many terraces benefit from having both. You can design yours in the configurator.

Does an awning stand up to the wind near the sea?

Pratic highlights its FlexControl patent on its arm awnings. But an awning is still made for shade: you retract it when the wind gets up. During the visit, we look with you at the terrace’s exposure and the wind it gets.

When should you order awnings and blinds for the summer?

Before the season: a made-to-measure awning or blind is measured at your home, manufactured, then installed. For a rental house, it is best to have everything in place before the first tenants. The lead time depends on the project; ask for it with your quote.

How much does an awning or blind cost in Porto-Vecchio?

The price depends on the type of awning or blind, the dimensions, the fabric and the motorisation. We set it on quotation, after the technical visit.

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:

What is a made-to-measure blind and why choose one?

A made-to-measure blind is designed for your space, whether an interior window or an outdoor area. It lets you control light, heat and visibility, and it adds to the decor of your interior or outdoor space.

What types of blinds do you offer?

We offer Venetian blinds, roller blinds, Roman blinds, outdoor blinds for terraces, pergolas or gardens, and other models too, all made to measure. For each type of blind, you choose the style, colour and material.

How do I choose the right blind or awning for my home or outdoor space?

The choice depends on the size of your windows or outdoor space, the sun protection you want and the style you are after. Our experts help you find the right one for your needs.
