The COLLEGE BLIND – designed for teaching rooms

The College Blind® has been specifically designed for teaching rooms, and is widely used in FE colleges, all types of secondary schools and primary schools.

These are some of the features that have ensured its success:

TECHNICALLY ADVANCED FABRICS    which provide excellent insulation, as well as glare control or room darkening. Various degrees of openness are available. Fabrics are flame retardant and most are recyclable.

MAINTENANCE FREE the College Blind® is built to last, even in the harshest conditions, with a ten year guarantee, and normally requires no maintenance, thanks to strong components and original design. The fabric is firmly anchored in the fabric roller and bottom profile and cannot be pulled out.

STRONG FABRIC ROLLER allows blind widths up to four metres which often saves costs by reducing the number of blinds required on a project.

CABLE SIDE GUIDES: stainless steel cables can’t be cut with scissors and ensure the blind is held steady if the windows are opened for natural ventilation. Fabrics are available with good porosity to allow air exchange.

OPERATION: manual operation is by gearbox and crank rod with folding handle, which may be removable to prevent unauthorised use. Crank rod operation avoids the ligature risk and frequent breakages associated with cords and chains. Crank rods will also operate at an angle, for example across benches in a science room. Electric operation is also available with 240v motor installed in the fabric roller, for automatic or manual control.

SIZES approximate maximum sizes: width 4.0 metres; height: 4.0 metres; area: 13 square metres. Maximum sizes may vary according to the weight of fabric used.

GRAPHICS standard fabrics are excellent for printing logos, text or images in one or more colours.
