DARKNESS ON DEMAND WITH NEW PLEATED BLACKOUT BLINDS
Morley Glass & Glazing is delivering darkness on demand with its launch of a new and exclusive blackout system for pleated integral blinds .
The ScreenLine ® pleated blackout blinds sit neatly inside Uni-Blind ® sealed units to ensure complete shading from the sun and other light sources such as streetlights and passing vehicles . Complete privacy and the exclusion of external light are particularly welcome in environments such as bedrooms , children ’ s nurseries and home cinema rooms as well as commercial applications including laboratories , hotel rooms and museums .
With no vertical cords running down the blind , no light can leak through tiny gaps when in the closed position , and there are no perimeter gaps either . The pleated blackout blinds are available in a choice of eight colour options : white , alabaster , cocoa , grey sheen , black , anthracite grey , dove grey and grey ridge . The blackout blinds are available for 20mm cavities , using the manual corded C System or slider control S System , and can cover a glazed area of 2 sq metres ( 2200mm max height x 1500mm max width ).
Ian Short , managing director of Morley Glass & Glazing said : “ We ’ re

BIFOLD LOCAL SEES SIGNIFICANT GROWTH WITH STELLAR
Trade and domestic fabricator Bifold Local started manufacturing the Stellar aluminium system from Epwin Window Systems in February 2021 and is already seeing significant growth on the back of the decision .
Bifold Local is based in Bootle on Merseyside . It manufactures and installs aluminium windows and doors throughout the UK with a fast and reliable service . A well-established aluminium fabricator , Bifold Local is a new name as a result of a recent rebranding . As an experienced company , Bifold Local turned to triple award-winning Stellar to help it capitalise on the growth in retail aluminium .
In fact , demand for the Stellar Aluminium Bifold Door in particular means it ’ s having to invest in new automated fabrication machinery to keep pace with demand .
Liam Duffy , Director at Bifold Local , says Stellar ’ s aesthetics are proving very popular with his customers . “ Stellar has the slim profiles that are so popular with consumers and the bifold door has real appeal . It ’ s allowing us to capitalise on demand for this popular style of door .
“ Our installers like the rapid installation thanks to the pre-gasketed knock-in glazing beads that save so much time when fitting . The pre-inserted gaskets don ’ t overstretch either , which adds to the overall door high-end aesthetics but also eliminates call backs to site . For my money it ’ s the best aluminium bifold door on the market .”
