Description

SmartDrape Vertical Blinds — Light Filtering

Overview

SmartDrape vertical blinds with curved S-shaped vanes that combine the soft elegance of drapery with the practicality of a vertical blind system. Unlike traditional flat-slat verticals, SmartDrape uses gently curved fabric vanes that overlap when closed, creating a smooth, continuous surface similar to soft-fold curtains.

SmartDrape vertical blinds are custom-made to your opening width — a made-to-measure alternative to traditional vertical blinds or curtains for wide windows and ranch sliders.

Key features

The award-winning design echoes the look of soft-fold drapery while providing full light control and privacy. The vanes travel through the shade without needing to be fully opened or closed — you can walk through the blinds seamlessly. Ideal for ranch sliders, wide windows and glass doors where you want the softness of curtains with the function of blinds.

Order vertical blinds online from NZ Blinds — the SmartDrape ships custom-made to your measurements throughout New Zealand.

The light-filtering fabric provides daytime privacy while letting soft natural light through. Delicately architectural with a contemporary, elegant aesthetic.

Measuring & Installing Guides

Have a question about Vertical Blinds?

Regular vertical blinds use flat, rigid PVC or fabric slats that rotate open and closed. SmartDrape uses curved S-shaped fabric vanes that overlap like curtains when closed, creating a smoother, more elegant appearance. SmartDrape also eliminates the light gaps between slats that traditional verticals have.

Yes. SmartDrape blinds are designed for wide openings and can span up to 4800mm. The vanes stack neatly to one side for full access through the door.

The light-filtering version softens and diffuses light rather than blocking it completely. For rooms where you need darkness, consider pairing SmartDrape with a separate blackout roller blind behind it.

Blinds ordered at separate times may not colour match perfectly. We strongly recommend that all blinds for one room are ordered at the same time.
