Silk Manual Honeycomb blind

Our products are fully custom-made. Enter the desired width and height of your honeycomb blind and we will take care of the rest. You do not have to take any margins into account, we calculate them ourselves. Please note! Before you start measuring, note any obstacles such as door and/or window fittings sticking out, heating pipes or inward-turning doors and windows.

Up to 350cm wide

Want a honeycomb blind that is wider than 297cm? Smartblinds can produce honeycomb blinds up to a width of 350cm. For now, this is not yet self-configurable. For more information, please contact our service.

1. Option A: Determining dimensions for mounting in the window
   
   Measure the width at the top of the window and measure the height at the centre of the window. Please note! We supply the honeycomb blind with a reduction of 3 mm on both sides. Specify the exact size of your window and we will make sure the honeycomb blind falls exactly in between. So do not make any reductions! In addition, allow for a system height of 10 cm due to possible obstacles such as inward-swinging doors and windows.
2. Option B: Determine dimensions for mounting on window
   
   Measure the width and height of the window, with a small overlap. We recommend an overlap of 5 cm on both sides. So add a total of 10 cm to the width measurement. To determine the height, add the package height of your honeycomb blind (see table below) to the height of your window. Do you want the honeycomb blind to continue at the bottom? Then decide how many extra centimetres you want in height.

You can choose to hang your blind inside the recess or outside the recess:

1. Inside the recess
   
   If you hang the honeycomb blind inside the recess, it is mounted between the walls of your window. With this choice, we therefore supply your honeycomb blind with a 3 mm reduction on both sides.
2. Outside the recess
   
   If you hang the honeycomb blind outside the recess, it is mounted on the wall and hangs over the window with overlap on both sides.

Here you can fill in a reference for your assembled blind. That way you will soon know exactly which product is for which window in your house!

When you are looking for window coverings, it is important to determine beforehand what transparency you want in certain rooms. In bedrooms, for example, more blackout is usual than in the living room. Smartblinds fabrics can be divided into three different transparencies:

Blackout

Opacity: none - Light from outside is completely blocked and has no possibility to illuminate rooms.

Light filtering

Opacity: limited - Light from outside is obstructed, but not completely blocked.

Sheer

Opacity: full - Light from outside finds its way in, but the fabric offers the desired privacy.

Your blinds should, of course, match your interior. The colour and look of fabrics and materials can sometimes differ from reality from a screen or due to differences in light transmission. We therefore always recommend requesting free fabric samples in advance, so you can assess the fabric (colour) in real life!

Our systems are available in two sizes, small and large. The small system is suitable for small to medium-sized roller blinds. For large sized blinds, only a large system is possible. Our advice is to start by putting together the roller blind for your largest window in the house. If it turns out that you can only choose a large system for this blind, we recommend doing the same for the rest of your Smartblinds. This way you avoid having multiple Smartblinds in your home with different systems. Is your largest product also suitable for a small system? Then choose the system size that you prefer.

Below you will find the system height of the various systems, so that you can take this into account when ordering. Are you mounting your product in the window, but do you have a window that opens inwards? Then you can use this to check whether you have enough room for this.
