Hello everyone, our floor-to-ceiling south-facing windows have external roller shutters. They work quite well to keep out the heat in summer, but we are now considering adding internal blinds. The idea is to be able to reduce sunlight during strong winter sun without making the room completely dark. Does anyone have experience with this?
Is it even possible to install blinds on the large windows when there is a roller shutter box above? Do you think mounting them inside the window frame is feasible – probably not, right? Because of the thickness of the blind slats.
What do you think about wooden blinds? I recently saw an advertisement online, and they looked really nice.
Thanks a lot and best regards

How would anyone ever be able to access it again if something goes wrong with the winding mechanism or the motor?
This is how it should look in 99.99% of houses.
Yes, it probably looks like this in our house as well. But the casing for a roller shutter with integrated blinds doesn’t fit inside the built-in shutter box.
