What are Integrated Blind Glass?
Integrated Blind Glass are blinds fitted between the panes of glass inside a sealed glazing unit. Because the blind sits within the glass, it’s protected from dust, grease, pets, little hands and everyday wear. You get the clean, modern finish of “blinds in glass” with the same practical control you’d expect from a quality Venetian or pleated blind—without cords hanging down or fabric collecting dirt.
How do blinds inside glass work?
Most integrated blind units are operated via a neat magnetic control fitted to the glass. The control moves smoothly to raise, lower and tilt the blind (depending on the chosen system). There are no bulky headrails, and the operation remains straightforward for day-to-day use—ideal for doors you open and close regularly.
Nexgen Windows will recommend the most suitable operation method based on your glazing size, door type, and how you want to use the space.

Why choose integrated blinds?
Low maintenance, always neat
Because the blind is inside the glass, there’s no slats-to-dust and no fabric to clean. It’s a great option for kitchens, family rooms and busy living spaces.
Safer for children and pets
With no loose cords or chains, integrated blind systems are tidier and safer in family homes—especially on patio doors and floor-to-ceiling glazing.
Privacy and light control on demand
Tilt the slats for daylight without glare, or close them for instant privacy. Integral blinds are popular for front-facing rooms, overlooked gardens, and home offices where screen glare is an issue.
Protected from damage
Traditional blinds can bend, snag or break—especially on frequently used doors. In-glass blinds stay protected within the unit, so the finish stays crisp for longer.
A cleaner look for modern glazing
With nothing mounted on the frame or wall, integrated blinds complement bifold doors, sliding patio doors, French doors and contemporary windows—perfect if you want a minimalist interior style.
Styles and colour options
Integrated blinds are typically available in:
-
Venetian blinds (a classic option with excellent tilt control)
-
Pleated blinds (a softer look with clean lines)
You can usually choose from a broad range of colours to match frames, handles and interior finishes—helpful if you want the blinds to blend in, or you’re styling a statement room.
Where integrated blinds work best

-
Bifold doors and sliding patio doors
-

-
Windows in kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms
-
