Wire Guide
The wire guide, as its name suggests, has a thin stainless steel cable that runs vertically on either side of the blind. This cable is attached to the bottom rail preventing the the bottom rail of the blind from flapping about in the breeze as it is raised and lowered.
Available as manual crank or motorised with or without a hood there is a wide range of fabric choices and customisable options available.
Straight Drop
Simple yet very effective the straight drop is perhaps the most simple of all the outdoor blinds. Operated usually with either a gearbox or a rope and pully their basic design requires an anchor point at the bottom of the blind.
They are quite often installed above a handrail of a balcony or patio however for a full drop there are also saddles and deck fittings. In some installations more than 1 anchor point is provided so one is able to achieve a pitch (one anchor point set forward of the other) or various heights.
