With venetian blinds from Alulux you choose a thoroughly versatile product. For it gives you not only reliable privacy and sun protection, but also light you can steer very flexibly at any time of day. With a single touch our external blinds create the room atmosphere you want and protect your plants and furniture from fading UV rays.
Compared with exterior venetian blinds, the individual slats are larger and gain more stability against wind, rain or storm thanks to their lateral suspension. Even so, they lose nothing in mobility and are infinitely adjustable. If you wish, they are operated in complete comfort from the sofa via a programmable remote control, or on the move by coupling with intelligent smart-home systems.
With our modern aluminium external blinds you also set architectural accents on your house façade. To match the result as ideally as possible to the appearance of your home, you can choose from a wide range of colour and design options. This is how you combine outstanding functionality with a visual highlight at the same time.
Advantages

You naturally want to protect your personal living space from prying eyes, especially in your own home. By fitting venetian blinds you prevent an unobstructed view from outside and yet let the desired amount of daylight into your living rooms.
As lovely as sun-flooded rooms look, sunlight can also be very disturbing when reading or working at a screen. Through their variably adjustable slats, venetian blinds steer daylight very precisely to your individual needs. Brightness enters the living rooms without you being unpleasantly dazzled.
The well-thought-out slat architecture of our products also lets you create the desired ambience in the room. You decide how subdued the light should be. By gently tilting the blinds you always create the most homely lighting conditions to suit the season and time of day.
You can significantly reduce both cooling and heating costs when using Alulux venetian blinds. Thanks to the strong reflection of sunlight, up to 80 percent of the sun rays are effectively blocked in summer. You therefore do not need to regulate the indoor temperature with air conditioning and save a great deal of energy. Conversely, in the winter months you keep the cold outside and can reduce heat loss through the windows. By individually dosing light and solar radiation you create a good and, on top of that, healthy indoor climate throughout the whole house all year round.
Seven systems
New build or renovation, surface box or hidden under the plaster: every façade has its right system. Each blind is configured and made to measure.

The blind disappears almost invisibly into the shaft of the reveal. The façade stays calm and the box recedes visually.

With channel or double plaster fascia, and clinker cladding on request. The fascia box can vanish invisibly beneath the render.

Planned from the start and cleanly integrated into the masonry. The ideal choice when sun protection and façade are built together.

The classic surface box mounts straight onto the wall, with or without render. Wonderfully simple and ideal for retrofitting.

The slim top-mounted blind for efficient shading. A compact build height with full, precise light control at every window.

No mains wiring needed: the solar drive makes retrofitting especially easy. Solar energy powers your sun protection.

The standalone blind for individual window fronts. Placed flexibly wherever a full system would be more than you need.
In detail
It makes no difference whether you are just building new or renovating an existing home. You can fit ARTec venetian blinds anywhere the necessary space is available. They are suitable both for classic surface-mounted roller shutter boxes with or without render and for a wide variety of top-mounted roller shutter boxes.
Alternatively, complete venetian blinds with channel or double plaster fascias can be installed, which are also available with clinker cladding, for example. Either way, the product is configured and tailor-made to suit your property, with the entire manufacturing process taking place in Germany.
Installation is also wonderfully simple, as the boxes are fitted directly onto the house wall or in the reveal. The drive technology and the lifting and turning mechanism remain freely accessible. This means that any maintenance work can also be carried out very easily, without having to remove the venetian blind package.
The extruded fascia boxes are likewise made of weatherproof aluminium and come in box sizes of 165, 180 and 205 millimetres. For the make-up of the slats you can choose from different widths and versions; they are available flanged, in an S or Z shape. The corresponding head rail is closed at the top and bottom, so that neither insect nests can form nor dirt can enter.
On all ARTec venetian blinds the smooth-running slats are guided in the side rails by means of steel guide nipples. On the one hand these nipples guarantee the highest strength against the weather, and on the other hand they also enable the flexible tilting of the slats. Their outstanding quality ensures smooth function even over many years.
Besides high comfort for your feel-good factor at home, Alulux venetian blinds offer even more. They are also a modern façade element that, thanks to the large selection of shapes, colours and constructions, can be designed entirely to your wishes. Whether the blinds should blend delicately into the overall architecture or set a deliberately visible statement.
The design choice already begins with the selection of the fascia box. This not only has the task of protecting the retracted slats from dirt and external influences, but can also become a colourfully distinctive style element on your house wall. If this is not desired, it is simply made to disappear invisibly beneath the house render.
Because of their nature, venetian blinds are in principle not operated by hand. The irregular cranking would make the slats twist too easily or jam unintentionally. A gentle motor drive is therefore standard. It guarantees proper operation at the ideal running speed. It also allows the precise tilting of the aluminium slats according to the desired incidence of light.
On the one hand, you have the option of having electronic control elements installed directly on the interior wall. In addition, many builders appreciate the convenience of a remote control to make small adjustments without having to get up each time. Of course, the system can also be programmed by time, so that the blinds are lowered automatically during your absence, for example.
By now technical development has advanced so far that there are also sensors to protect the slats. A so-called wind guard control ensures that the blinds are automatically retracted into the box in strong wind to prevent damage.
And the topic of smart home naturally also plays a major role when installing venetian blinds on your window fronts. The new technology allows you to activate the sun protection from your car even before you arrive home and to avoid overheating of the living rooms. In this way you can also actively influence your energy costs at any time. As with all drive systems, retrofitting is possible at any time.
