Levante Roller Blind: 1:2 Geared System & Accessories | Rutperfil
Any supplier can sell you a mechanism that simply moves. But only a manufacturer with on-site experience knows what really happens when you arrive at a client’s home: the window has a protruding handle, the blind weighs too much, or the exposed screws ruin the aesthetic.
The Rutperfil Levante Roller Blind is not just a standard mechanism; it is an engineering solution designed so the installer can leave the job site quickly and with a satisfied client. Here, we analyze its key features.
1. Controlled Power: The 1:2 Gear Reduction of the Levante Roller Blind
This is the jewel in the crown of the system. Unlike direct drive mechanisms (1:1), the Levante Roller Blind features a 1:2 reduction gear ratio.
-
What does this mean for you? Pure physics. The mechanism “trades” speed for force.
-
The Result: The blind rises approximately twice as slowly, but in exchange, the system can lift double the weight with the same effort.
-
The Feeling: When pulling the chain, the client feels no jerking or heaviness. They feel a “premium,” controlled smoothness, ideal for managing medium-sized blinds with dense technical fabrics.
2. Accessories that “Save” the Installation
Installers asked for it, and the Levante Roller Blind delivers. We have integrated solutions for real-world window obstacles:
-
The Handle-Saver Spacer : How often does the blind hit the window handle when lowering? The system features a bracket extension (spacer) that separates the roll from the wall just enough to clear that obstacle without having to resort to clunky workarounds.
-
Long and Short Brackets: We offer different bracket projections to adapt to the depth required by each pelmet, blind box, or window frame.
3. Clean Aesthetics: “Screw Cover” System
In interior design, details matter. A robust metal bracket is necessary, but seeing the installation screw head looks “ugly” in a modern home. The Levante Roller Blind incorporates a system of decorative covers that clip onto the bracket once installed.
Result: The screw remains hidden. The client only sees a clean finish in their chosen color (White, Black, Grey, etc.).
4. Extra Help: The Levante Roller Blind Compensating Spring
For those cases where the blind is at the limit of its weight or height capacity, the system allows for a Compensating Spring (Booster Spring) to be housed inside the tube. This spring works in tandem with the 1:2 gear reduction, “pushing” the blind upwards. Raising a heavy blind becomes child’s play, reducing fatigue on the mechanism and extending its lifespan.
5. Future-Proof: Motor Compatible
The standard for mid-range systems is that if you want to motorize, you have to change all the brackets. With the Levante Roller Blind, we have designed the brackets to be compatible with motorization. This gives you a commercial advantage, as you can install a manual system today, and if the client wants to motorize tomorrow, the base structure is already mounted. Less work for you, more options for your client.
Conclusion: The Most Complete Standard on the Market
Manufactured with high-resistance POM components and thought out to solve real problems, the Levante Roller Blind is the safe bet for 90% of your installations.
