Overview
Designed for real windows, crafted to the millimetre.
Fenstermann pleated blinds are just 7/8 inch deep overall and mount to a surface as shallow as ½ inch. There is no header and nothing dangling — only crisp pleats that move exactly where you want them.
Close the lower part to keep your privacy while daylight pours in from above. Close the upper part to cut harsh glare. Or stack the blind neatly at the top, bottom or middle so it all but disappears.
Install permanently inside the frame, or choose a drill-free, tool-free option with adhesive strips, glue plates or clips — twelve mounting methods in all.
Blinds can reach up to 78 inches wide and 102 inches tall, and come in over 500 light-filtering and black-out fabrics in a wide range of colours, textures and prints.

Professor Know: What are pleated blinds?
What is the difference to honeycomb shades?
Pleated blinds use one layer of fabric; honeycomb shades use a double cellular layer that insulates better and hides the cords inside the cells.
Will they fit a shallow window recess?
Yes — they need only about ½ inch of flat mounting surface.
Can I see fabrics before ordering?
