Pleated blackout blind VidaXL model 4015087 in anthracite, size 75 x 150 cm with a fabric width of 74.4 cm is a compact window covering designed to control light and provide privacy in living rooms, bedrooms or offices. The pleated construction combines a thin profile with an opaque blackout fabric that reduces incoming daylight and increases privacy while maintaining a neat, folded appearance when raised. The measured fabric width makes this blind suitable for installations where precise fitting is required, including standard sash windows and recessed mounting inside the frame.
Advantages
The anthracite pleated blind offers blackout performance in a slim, space-saving design that fits both inside and outside the window frame. Its pleated fabric folds neatly to minimise visual obstruction when opened and provides consistent coverage when closed. The fabric width of 74.4 cm ensures a close fit to the glass or frame, reducing light gaps and improving privacy. The model is suitable for simple manual operation and is compatible with common mounting locations.
Suitable for
- Living rooms where controlled daylight and privacy are desired
- Bedrooms that require blackout properties to reduce light for sleep
- Home offices or workspaces needing glare reduction on screens
- Windows with narrow frame clearances where precise fabric width is necessary
When it may not be suitable
This pleated blackout blind is designed for straightforward window shapes and standard mounting situations; it may not be suitable for unusually shaped or very large windows that require custom sizes. If motorised control or automated integration with a smart-home system is required, this manual model may not meet those needs without additional accessories or modification.

How to use
Measure the window opening and confirm the fabric width and overall size before installation. Mount the blind either inside the window frame or on the outer surface following the included mounting instructions and hardware. To operate, pull the lower rail up or down to position the pleated fabric at the desired height; the pleats will stack compactly when raised and extend fully to provide blackout coverage when lowered. Ensure that the rails and fabric are aligned to minimise light gaps.
What to consider before purchase
- Confirm the actual visible glass or frame opening to ensure the 74.4 cm fabric width provides the required coverage
- Decide whether inside-frame or outside-frame mounting is needed for your window type
- Check that manual operation meets your accessibility and convenience needs
- Verify the anthracite colour against your interior finishes to ensure a visually compatible result
Usage recommendations
For best blackout performance, mount the blind as close to the glass or frame as possible and align the rails to minimise side gaps. Regularly dust the pleated fabric with a soft brush or vacuum with a brush attachment on low suction to maintain appearance. When measuring for replacement or additional blinds, use the same measuring points to match the 74.4 cm fabric width for consistent fit across multiple windows.
