The first three colours in the list alone make up about three-quarters of our production, meaning about 1,500 sets of blinds a week. It confirms that customers tend to go for neutral colours, which do not show dust that much and are therefore easier to maintain. Architects also influence the popularity of colours \u2013 neutral colours, such as silver, grey or white, conform to the trends of modern architecture.<\/p>\n
Dimensions? As big as possible<\/h2>\n
External blinds have very strong and resistant slats, meaning we can make them in large formats, which customers take full advantage of. More and more frequently we get requests for the largest possible blinds in our assortment. We are capable of manufacturing blinds up to 5 metres high and 5 metres wide. However, the maximum acceptable surface area is 20 m\u00b2, so, e.g., 5\u00d74 metres.<\/p>\n
The reason for this trend is obvious \u2013 more and more customers want as much light as possible, which makes them opt for large French or portal windows spanning entire room walls. Our blinds are also often used to screen conservatories.<\/p>\n

Premium motors allow remote control of blinds and also offer many useful additional features.<\/em><\/p>\n When selecting slat type and width, customers most often go for the Z shape and 90mm width; and it\u2019s no wonder.<\/p>\n These blinds are fully lockable and the slats fit perfectly into each other when closed, creating absolute darkness. Thanks to the width of the slats, they also resist wind of up to 88kph, meaning they do not have to be pulled up immediately in case of bad weather. And then there\u2019s the appearance, which also probably plays a role \u2013 the Z90 blinds look great, suit modern houses and are offered in 22 standard colours.<\/p>\n In terms of controls, most customers opt for motorized blinds, which can be controlled easily via a wall-mounted panel or a remote control. However, there are exceptions \u2013 in Switzerland, for example, quite a few customers have been requesting external blinds with manual crank controls.<\/p>\n It probably comes as no surprise that requests to connect blinds to a smart home system<\/a> have been on the rise recently. In these cases, the blind controls are automated and respond to, e.g., weather changes according to pre-set scenarios.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Anyone who builds a residential house or an administrative building today should fit their windows with external blinds or any other type of external sun shading. However, selecting the right ones typically isn\u2019t that simple \u2013 it is necessary to choose the shape and width of the slats or, for example, the colour of the blinds. If you\u2019re hesitant about your choice, you may get inspiration from other customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":5411,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","_daim_seo_power":"1000","_daim_enable_ail":"1","footnotes":""},"categories":[119],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6717","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-advice-and-instructions"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"author_meta":{"display_name":"Miloslav Matou\u0161ek","author_link":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/author\/matousek\/"},"featured_img":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/neva-trendy-ve-stineni.jpg","coauthors":[],"tax_additional":{"categories":{"linked":["Advice and instructions<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Advice and instructions<\/span>"]}},"comment_count":"0","relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 7 years ago","modified":"Updated 10 months ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on 30. 10. 2019","modified":"Updated on 15. 7. 2025"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on 30. 10. 2019 13:02","modified":"Updated on 15. 7. 2025 9:37"},"featured_img_caption":"","series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6717","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6717"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6717\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29304,"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6717\/revisions\/29304"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5411"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6717"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6717"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6717"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Z90 is the most popular blind type<\/h2>\n
