Front-Mounted External Venetian Blinds

ROMA QUADRO.XP-RS Front-Mounted External Venetian Blinds: Design meets efficiency

ROMA QUADRO.XP-RS is the aluminum External Venetian Blinds system with a square box shape - puristic with simple, clear lines. The visible box is installed in the window reveal, on the window or on the wall.

ROMA Front-Mounted External Venetian Blinds impress with their high-quality architectural and design elements. The installation in front of the window prevents thermal bridges above the window and thus contributes to a reduction in energy consumption and lower costs. This is why they have been a preferred choice in new builds and demanding renovations for years.

  • Absolute top quality - made in Germany

  • Ideal for new builds and renovations

  • Insect screen possible with XP series

  • Box height-optimized external venetian blind system

ROMA external venetian blind slats

In order to make optimum use of daylight, the slat types differ in terms of the type of light control, the degree of shading and, of course, the design. What all slats have in common is that they are precisely manufactured by ROMA from weather-resistant aluminum.

Matt fine texture highly weather-resistant for element colors

For the visible aluminum components of Roller Shutters, External Venetian Blinds and Textile Screens, you can choose from a wide range of colors in high-quality and durable surfaces. Design the element colors of your (visible) boxes, guide rails, end bars, end strips or drop rods entirely according to your wishes. The "matt fine structure, highly weather-resistant" surface is already standard at ROMA and combines a modern matt design with low sensitivity to dirt and scratches. A "matt smooth" surface is also available as an option.

Please always use original color samples for your color decision. Products may differ by nuances due to different painting processes. Your ROMA specialist partner will be happy to advise you.

Additional equipment, functions and options

Additional equipment: integrated insect screen

The integrated insect screen from ROMA is integrated in the box and offers the following advantages:

  • Can be raised if required (e.g. window cleaning) and is optimally protected from the weather in the box

  • Can be retrofitted at any time (without dismantling the element, as long as an insect screen-compatible guide rail is installed)

  • Convenient inching operation

  • Pull cord can be moved sideways

  • No annoying sash elements

  • No cumbersome unhinging and stowing away in winter

Additional equipment: daylight technology

When the blinds are lowered, the lower part of the daylight technology remains closed for privacy and sun protection, while the upper part lets in light and brightness through swiveled slats.

  • Different positions for upper and lower part, lowering takes place in the closed position

  • An OPEN command first turns the upper section (daylight section)

  • Lower section turns later (by shortening the track)

  • Individual division of the turning height possible on request

  • Daylight technology not possible with CDL and ZL

Opening despite faulty power supply

Motor-driven External Venetian Blinds are convenient, but immobile without a power supply! But nobody wants to be trapped in a darkened room in the event of a power failure. With the help of the battery backup for External Venetian Blinds, ten movement cycles are possible within 24 hours even without mains power and the battery is automatically recharged when the power returns.

Open in just a few seconds with the quick retraction function (even in the event of a power failure): With the battery-powered rapid retraction system, External Venetian Blinds (e.g. by operating the emergency switch) move upwards in a flash in dangerous situations.

Manual emergency operation for External Venetian Blinds: With Lift&go and Push&go, the end slats can be pushed up by hand in an emergency. This immediately creates a clear escape route - with little effort.
