Front-mounted external venetian blinds are installed in front of the window. Their separate box makes these external venetian blinds suitable for planned new builds, renovation and subsequent installation, subject to the available fixing and installation space.
Front-mounted external venetian blinds can be specified with rectangular, half-round or square boxes, as well as versions designed for plaster integration. This allows the box and guides to be coordinated with the façade detail.
Motor operation is standard for many configurations. A solar drive may be suitable for retrofit projects where a mains connection is not planned. Available colours and slat types provide further design options.

WAREMA front-mounted external venetian blinds, window awnings and roller shutters can be planned with coordinated box shapes and colours. This supports a consistent façade appearance when different functions are required at different windows.
All three product types are installed in front of the window. Depending on the building and fixing situation, they can be used in new builds, renovation or subsequent installation.
Benefits of the system approach:
- coordinated box shapes and colours
- different functions within one façade concept
- options for new-build and retrofit details

Where different functions are required, Front-mounted roller shutters can provide privacy and room darkening, while Front-mounted awnings provide textile solar shading.
