Integral & Integrated Blinds.
Sealed inside the glass.
Slim venetian blinds, hermetically sealed between the two panes of a premium double-glazed unit. Also known as integrated blinds - no dust, no cords, no hardware in the room. Just clean lines and total light control.
The technology
What are Integral (or Integrated) Blinds?
An integral blind - often called an integrated blind - is a slim aluminium venetian blind fitted between the two panes of a double or triple-glazed unit at manufacture. Once the unit is sealed, the blind lives inside a hermetic, argon-filled cavity - protected from dust, hands and moisture for the lifetime of the window. The two terms are used interchangeably across the UK glazing industry.
Why homeowners love them
Six reasons to seal your blinds in.
Zero maintenance
Sealed inside the glass unit - no dusting, no cleaning, no fading.
Child & pet safe
No cords, no chains, nothing dangling. Compliant with UK child-safety standards.
Perfect for wet rooms
Steam and moisture never touch the blinds - ideal for bathrooms and kitchens.
Hygienic by design
No fabric to trap dust or allergens. A win for asthma and hay fever sufferers.
Manual or motorised
Cordless magnetic slider, remote-control, or solar-powered options.
25-year guarantee
The same sealed-unit guarantee as our standard double glazing.

Fitted in three steps.
Free survey

Manufactured to size
Your Integral Blinds units are built to exact spec in the factory - typically ready in 2-3 weeks.
Fitted in a day
We remove the existing sealed unit and drop in the new one. Same frame, brand-new capability.
Control options
Three ways to open them.
Cordless magnetic slider
A discreet slider on the frame moves a magnet that tilts and raises the blinds. No power needed.
Motorised remote
Handheld or wall-mounted remote. Perfect for hard-to-reach windows and bi-fold doors.
Solar-powered
A tiny solar cell trickle-charges the built-in battery. Truly wire-free installation.
Where they shine
Perfect for the rooms traditional blinds hate.
Anywhere fabric fails or hardware feels intrusive - bathrooms, kitchens, doors, conservatories - integral blinds keep working, invisibly.
