Just that really.... We ruled out integrated blinds as a) they were horrendously expensive and b) probe to failing.
What has anyone else used? We have considered using motorised roller blinds but have not looked into costs, we are looking to cover an area of 3.5m
If anyone has any ideas ir better still pics that would be great

We decided on the integral blinds and I really like them. They were v expensive though.

I like the idea of them but even the bi fold companies we got quotes from said they can be prone to fail quite often. £500-£700 per pane meant I simply could not afford/justify the layout

I don't think ours were as expensive as that. We had them in 3 bifold panes, a matching door and two windows. Will see if I can find the price we paid.

Thanks, unfortunately bi folds already on order, has anyone used roller blinds? Considering motorised as gets rid of chain-rope being visible but I suspect they will be mega bucks too

We've just installed perfect fit blinds. We went for the cheapest we could find and it cost £340 for the 5 panes. The ones we got let light through - you can get thicker ones, but we just wanted something to shut the darkness out at night.

I've taken a couple of photos - ignore the garden mess as building work still ongoing! On the second one you can see how neatly they fold up. You just pull down and push up.

Thanks for that, who was your supplier if you don't mind me asking?

This is where we got them from
