DESIGN AND OPERATION – PRODUCT LIMITATIONS

Luxaflex Silhouette Shades – Important Facts

Introducing the Luxaflex Silhouette blind, the perfect window covering that combines privacy and exceptional light control.

We want to shed some light on its unique room-darkening capabilities so you can make an informed decision. While the Silhouette blind is designed to darken your room, it’s important to note that a significant amount of light can still seep through the horizontal gaps and along the edges.

Prepare to be amazed by the ingenuity of this blind’s adjustable, rotating slats. They skillfully filter and diffuse incoming light, creating a soft and inviting atmosphere.

But here’s the deal: when it comes to achieving total darkness, this blind has a few gaps in its superpowers.

Those crafty horizontal gaps and edges allow a notable amount of light to enter, ensuring you’re still aware of the world outside. So, while the Silhouette Blind is a champion at dimming your room, it doesn’t claim to be a blackout superhero. We want to set the right expectations, allowing you to make the best choice for your needs.

But don’t let that overshadow the undeniable charm of the Silhouette blind. It brings a touch of enchantment to your space, beautifully diffusing light and safeguarding your privacy.

And guess what? We have an array of top-quality blinds that cater to every preference. If you’re seeking a blind with enhanced light control, we’d be delighted to introduce you to our selection of dimout blinds or other fantastic alternatives.

The Luxaflex UK Silhouette blind is an exceptional window covering that balances light and privacy expertly.

While it may not achieve complete darkness due to the horizontal gaps and vertical edge gaps, it excels at dimming your room and creating a captivating ambience.

Embrace the beauty of its design while considering the notable amount of light that can enter through these areas.

We want to ensure you have all the necessary information about the Luxaflex UK Silhouette blind, so here are a few additional details and specific attention points to keep in mind:

Construction Details:

Due to the construction of the blind, the bottom rail may hang slightly forward. This is a normal characteristic of the blind and does not affect its functionality.

A light gap of approximately 3 mm will be between the ceiling and the headrail. This is part of the installation design.

Variations in Visibility:

The vanes on the Silhouette blind’s fabrics open to slightly different degrees, resulting in variations in visibility through the shadings when the vanes are tilted to their maximum open positions.

These variations are most noticeable when looking through the shadings at eye level. It’s essential to know that the degree of visibility varies among different products.

Vane Closure:

When the vanes of a Silhouette blind are closed, they overlap each other, blocking the view. However, the vanes do not form a perfect seal against light leakage along the entire length of the shade, particularly toward the bottom.

Vane closure is measured as the distance between the front and rear fabric facings, 150 mm up from the lowest point of the bottom rail, with the shade fully lowered, and the vanes closed.

For shades under 1500 mm in length, the vane closure is 16 mm. For shades over 1500 mm in length, the vane closure is 22 mm.

Regardless of height, all 75 mm fabric blinds have a vane closure of 25 mm.

Minor Rippling:

Minor rippling may occur in the voile section attached to the bottom rail of the Silhouette blind.

This is a by-product of the manufacturing process and falls within the product’s specifications.

We believe in providing transparent information to ensure you completely understand the Silhouette blind and its characteristics. If you have any further questions, our team will gladly assist you.
