Apex and Gable End Window Blinds
Usually pointed at the top, gable end windows (also called apex windows) are designed to follow the pitch of the roof. Their bold, sweeping design allows ample natural light to flood the room, while creating a striking appearance on the exterior of the house.
Gable end windows are an increasingly popular design feature in new build properties, in addition to being a common feature of conservatories. Some people believe that their complex shape prevents them from being covered with a blind, but worry not – with Broadview’s range of high-end apex blinds, you can enjoy the beauty of an apex window with the coverage of a seamlessly fitted shade!

Apex Blinds FAQs
Yes, apex and gable end windows can be fitted with made-to-measure blinds designed specifically for angled or triangular shapes.
Unlike standard blinds, these are carefully measured and manufactured to follow the exact pitch of your window, ensuring a clean, tailored fit without gaps or sagging fabric.
The most suitable options depend on your space, but typically include:
- Pleated blinds for lightweight coverage and insulation
- Cellular (honeycomb) blinds for improved thermal efficiency
- Motorised blinds for high or hard-to-reach windows
Each option is designed to complement the architectural shape rather than hide it.
Not at all. For ease and practicality, many apex blinds are either:
Fixed in position (ideal for very high windows), or
Fully motorised, allowing you to control them by remote, wall switch, or smart home system
This is particularly useful in rooms with vaulted ceilings or large glazed areas.
Yes, this is one of their key benefits.
Apex and gable end windows can let in a significant amount of sunlight, which often leads to overheating and glare. Made-to-measure blinds help:
- Regulate room temperature
- Reduce glare on screens and surfaces
- Improve overall comfort throughout the day
Quite the opposite.
When designed correctly, apex blinds enhance the window by:
- Following its natural lines
- Adding texture and softness to large glazed areas
- Creating a more balanced, considered interior
We focus on finishes and fabrics that complement your space rather than compete with it.
Yes, they are particularly effective in:
- Modern extensions with gable glazing
- Conservatories with angled rooflines
- Open-plan spaces with feature windows
They help make these areas more comfortable and usable throughout the year.
