🪟 Blinds for Triangle Windows: Smart Solutions for Tricky Shapes

🏠 Triangle and raked windows look stunning, but they’re one of the hardest shapes to cover.
🧩 At Taylor & Stirling, we specialise in custom solutions that fit perfectly, improve insulation, and enhance your home’s design.


Why Triangle Windows Need Custom Solutions

🔺 Triangle windows are rarely standard sizes and often sit high in gable ends or cathedral ceilings.
🌞 This can lead to glare, heat gain, and privacy issues.
📏 Off‑the‑shelf blinds don’t work — you need a made‑to‑measure product built for angles.


1. Honeycomb / Cellular Blinds (Best Option)

🧱 Honeycomb blinds are the number one solution for triangle and raked windows because they can be manufactured to match almost any angle.
❄️ Their cellular structure delivers exceptional insulation — ideal for Ballarat’s temperature swings.
🪶 Lightweight, neat, and perfect for high windows or architectural features.

⚡ Motorisation Options

We offer both DC and 240V motorised honeycomb systems, depending on the window height, access, and control requirements.

🔌 DC Motors

  • Great for retrofits
  • No electrician required
  • Rechargeable or plug‑in options

240V Motors

  • Best for large or high triangle windows
  • Stronger lifting capacity
  • Hard‑wired for seamless operation

🎛️ Both options integrate with smart home systems for effortless control.


🌿 2. Plantation Shutters

🪵 Plantation shutters can be custom‑built to match steep or shallow angles.
🌡️ Excellent insulation and light control.
🧼 Durable, low‑maintenance, and ideal for both modern and heritage homes.


⚙️ 3. Fixed or Motorised Screens

🏗️ Perfect for very high or hard‑to‑reach triangle windows.
🌤️ Reduce glare and UV without blocking the view.
🎛️ Available in DC or 240V motorised options, depending on window size and access.


🪟 4. Curtains on a Raked Track

🧵 Curtains can follow the angle of the ceiling or window line using a custom raked track.
🌙 Blockout fabrics offer excellent privacy and light control.
✨ Sheers soften the space and highlight the architecture.


🚫 What About Roller Blinds?

🔄 Standard roller blinds don’t suit triangle shapes because the fabric must roll evenly.
➕ They can still be used on the lower rectangular portion of a split window design.
