Having no chains or cords adds to its visual impact providing the safest possible window covering. Senses ‘Slow-Rise’ mimics beautifully the features of a remote control blind – without all the gadgetry. You can set all the blinds in your home to rise and stop at the same level every time in just one touch and even control the speed in which the blinds open and close. 

Safety & Style

Senses ‘Slow-Rise’ has been designed to fully address concerns over safety. Young children can be in danger of strangulation from the loops of pull, chain and bead cords. The Senses ‘Slow-Rise’, which is completely cord and chain free, has been developed in the UK by our exceptional team of designers and tackles this worrying problem head on. We also have an extensive range of safety components suitable for use with standard Senses chain operated systems including a Chain Pulley which secures chain in place, Chain Connector Break-Away which will detach if excessive pressure is put onto Senses Roller design at its heart, the Senses Roller Blind System will impress, inspire and make luxury a truly attainable everyday asset.

Senses Roller blinds take up very little space inside windows, and can be rolled up to a very small unnoticeable size. Senses Roller blinds are usually finished in straight at the bottom with matching end cap with the top facia ends. The quality of the mechanism is the critical component that will determine how long your blind lasts. That is why we always use heavy usage parts, which will not fail you.

Limitations

  • Minimum and maximum sizes
    • The minimum size for a roller blind is 200mm for a sidewinder-operated blind  It must be pointed out however, that a blind of 200mm wide cannot be expected to operate normally, since it has no weight. Roller blinds will operate normally from approx 400mm wide for a smooth finish flexible fabric. Stiffer and thicker fabrics make the rolling of the blind a little more difficult to achieve smoothly.
    • The minimum width for a Senses roller blind with a spring mechanism is 500mm approx.

Suitable Areas

  • Bedroom
    • Blackout fabrics will help provide an 80% blackout effect if there are no other curtains in the windows.
