Why choose pleated blinds as window decoration

Pleated blinds are distinguished from other types of window decoration by their unique folded design. Unlike blinds, for example, a pleated blind consists of uniform pleats that fold neatly when the curtain is opened. This creates an elegant, clean look that blends perfectly with both modern and classic interiors.

In addition, pleated blinds offer an excellent combination of light control and privacy. Whereas other window decorations often either completely darken or let a lot of light through, our pleated blinds can be made in more than 120 fabric types. So you have plenty of choice in translucent, atmospheric or completely blackout fabrics and there is always a pleated blind to match your interior. With the Day 'n Night variant, KeJe even offers the possibility of combining two different fabrics in one frame, allowing you to experience optimal comfort both during the day and at night.

Mounting pleated blinds without drilling and screwing

A frequently asked question is how pleated blinds can be installed without drilling. Especially with plastic or aluminium window frames, this is an important aspect because you don't want to damage these frames. At KeJe, we have pleated blinds that are easily installed without drilling. You attach the aluminium frame to the glazing bars of the window frame using magnetic and steel tape, without having to worry about damaging the window or frames. This also makes it easy to remove or move pleated blinds later, without leaving visible traces. Free-hanging pleated blinds are fixed in the traditional way with screws in or on your wooden window frame or on your ceiling or wall.

What types of pleated blinds are there?

Pleated blinds are available in different types, each with their own functionality. For instance, there are pleated blinds with a decorative fabric, which let a lot of light through. For rooms where blackout is important, such as the bedroom, there are blackout fabrics for pleated blinds. These blackout fabrics ensure that no light enters through the fabric, contributing to a better night's sleep. With both free-hanging pleated blinds and framed pleated blinds, there will always be low light penetration around the fabric or frame. If you want as little light in your room as possible, we recommend choosing a framed pleated blind. Because the fabric is enclosed in a frame and you place this window decoration directly on your glazing, the chance of incoming light is at its lowest.

With the Splendid Pliss, the best-selling pleated blind at KeJe, you can choose from various fabric types. From decorative to blackout. With our Day 'n Night pleated blind, we combine two separate pleated blinds in one frame. This pleated blind allows you to combine a transparent and a blackout fabric. With this, you can choose the translucent fabric during the day to create extra atmosphere and colour in your home, and in the evening you can choose the black-out fabric to get as little light into your room as possible.

Pleated blinds for skylights or outward-swinging wooden windows

Do you have wooden window frames with outward-swinging windows or a skylight? Then you can opt for a fixed window pleated blind. You attach the frame of this pleated blind with screws in or on the window frame. The Supplente is also a frequently chosen option for this, this is a window decoration that combines a pleated insect screen and pleated blind in one frame. One part is fitted with pleated mesh and the other with a window decoration fabric of your choice. Ideal window covering for skylights or dormer windows.

Finally, you can choose our free-hanging pleated blind. This pleated blind does not have an aluminium frame and can be freely hung in or on your wooden frame.

Maintenance of pleated blinds

Maintaining pleated blinds is easy and takes little time. Because the curtains are made of fabric, it is important to regularly keep them dust-free. This can easily be done with a feather duster or a soft brush on the hoover. For stubborn dirt, a damp cloth can help. At KeJe, we advise caution when using cleaning agents, as this can damage the fabric.

Styles and trends with pleated blinds

Pleated blinds are not only functional, they are also a real eye-catcher in your interior. In recent years, pleated blinds have increasingly become a trend, partly because of their minimalist and timeless look. They fit perfectly with modern, sleek interiors, but can also be a subtle and elegant addition in a classic or country interior. One of the most popular trends at the moment is pleated blinds in natural shades such as beige and light grey. These colours create a soothing and warm atmosphere in your home. In addition, pleated blinds offer plenty of opportunities to play with light and shade, contributing to an atmospheric space.

Besides a range of standard basic fabrics, KeJe also offers the possibility to choose a luxury fabric. These fabrics are specially selected to respond to current interior design trends. In addition to a wide range of fabrics, frame pleated blinds are also increasingly played with in a different colour frame compared to the frame. This makes your window decoration a real eye-catcher in the living area!
