The VidaXL pleated blackout blind in anthracite with a fabric width of 115 x 150 cm is a window covering designed to reduce incoming light and increase privacy. Its pleated (plissee) structure folds compactly when raised and creates a uniform, opaque layer when lowered. The anthracite colour provides a neutral, contemporary look suitable for bedrooms, living rooms and workspaces where controlled daylight and darkness are required.
Advantages
This pleated blackout blind combines light-blocking fabric with a slim folded profile for a low-visual-impact finish when retracted. The pleated construction allows smooth vertical movement and consistent opacity across the surface. Anthracite fabric offers a neutral, modern appearance that complements a variety of interior styles while effectively reducing glare and improving sleep conditions in darker rooms.
Suitable for
- Bedrooms where reduced light exposure is needed for sleep or naps
- Living rooms to decrease glare on screens and enhance privacy
- Home offices to control daylight and limit reflections on monitors
- Standard-size windows where a compact, space-saving covering is preferred
When it may not be suitable
This pleated blackout blind is intended for standard window installations; it may not fit non-standard or unusually shaped windows without custom adaptation. If complete blackout is required under all conditions, additional side channels or seals may be necessary to eliminate light leaks around the edges.

What to consider before purchase
- Confirm your window dimensions to ensure the 115 x 150 cm fabric size fits the intended window
- Check mounting type and clearance on your window frame for compatibility
- Decide whether additional sealing or side channels are needed for full blackout performance
- Consider the anthracite colour relative to your interior lighting and décor
Usage recommendations
For best blackout performance, install the blind as close to the window glass or frame as possible and inspect edges for light gaps; combine with blackout curtains or side seals where total darkness is required. Periodically clean with a soft brush and avoid excessive moisture to maintain fabric opacity and operating smoothness.
