Why spec with BlindSpec

Technical clarity from first draft to final install

Every product sheet is built for real decisions — not marketing fluff. Here is what that means on your next project.

Aluminum profile specs that hold up

Wall thickness, thermal break placement, and finish data for each extrusion. Compare profiles side by side before you commit to a supplier.

Fabric performance without guesswork

Blackout, screen, and translucent options listed with openness factor, UV blockage, and visible light transmission. Match the textile to the room orientation, not a vague brochure claim.

Motor sizing tables that prevent callbacks

Torque ratings and lift capacity matched to blind weight and fabric type. Avoid undersized motors and the noise complaints that follow.

Shading coefficients for energy modeling

Solar heat gain coefficient data formatted for your glazing calculations. Useful when you need to justify the design to a client or a code official.

Installation guides written for the field

Mounting depth, bracket spacing, and clearance requirements for each system. Your crew gets the numbers they need without digging through three manuals.

Maintenance comparisons that survive handover

Cleaning intervals, part replacement cycles, and expected wear for every mechanism. Give facility managers a realistic picture before they sign off.

"The aluminum profile comparison saved us weeks of research. We specified the thermal break system for a south-facing office tower and the shading coefficient tables matched our simulation data almost exactly."

"We used the motorization guide to size tubular motors for a 40-room hotel renovation. The torque recommendations and wiring diagrams were clear enough for our electrical contractor to follow without back-and-forth."

Residential

Custom homes and apartment renovations where fabric selection and manual operation matter.

Commercial

Office fit-outs and retail facades requiring motorized control and glare reduction.

Hospitality

Hotels and short-stay properties needing durable blackout fabrics and quiet motors.
