External Venetian Blinds and Venetian blinds: both consist of adjustable slats, but enable different functions.
ExternalVenetian Blinds: are external systems for precise daylight control and effective heat protection.
Internal blinds: are primarily suitable for privacy protection and simple light regulation indoors.
External blinds: noticeably increase thermal insulation in summer, living comfort and energy efficiency.
The main difference between Venetian blinds and External Venetian blinds lies in their positioning:
Venetian blinds are typically internal, i.e. they are mounted inside the room in front of the window.
ExternalVenetian blinds are external - they are located on the outside of the window or are integrated into the façade.
This different positioning has a significant influence on functionality, thermal insulation and design options.
Both Venetian blinds and External Venetian blinds consist of horizontal slats that can be individually adjusted. This allows the incidence of light to be regulated in a targeted manner - a major advantage over fixed shading systems. Both variants enable:
