NSS Galaxy blinds are motorised outdoor blinds that span up to 4.5 metres in one join-free sheet on a 100 millimetre pelmet — the smallest pelmet box available. Each Galaxy blind is custom made in Malaga from marine-grade aluminium and operated by wireless remote.
Also known as: Galaxy outdoor blinds, slimline motorised outdoor blinds, NSS Galaxy electric blinds
A pelmet is the box the fabric rolls into, and it sits in plain view above the opening all day whether the blind is down or not. At 100 millimetres the Galaxy pelmet reads as part of the roofline rather than an add-on bolted underneath it. That is the whole argument for Galaxy over a wider-spanning blind: if the opening is under 4.5 metres, there is no reason to accept a larger box.
A join in outdoor blind fabric is a weakness in two ways: it is visible from inside as a line across the view, and it is the point where water tracks through in heavy rain. Galaxy spans the full 4.5 metres in a single sheet, so neither problem exists. It is the reason a Galaxy blind looks like part of the building rather than a fitted accessory.
With a 4.5 metre blind, manual operation is not a small inconvenience — it is the reason blinds stop getting used. A 240 volt motor on a wireless remote means the blind gets lowered on the afternoons it should be, instead of on the afternoons somebody feels like walking outside and cranking it.
| Blind | Pelmet | Max width | Operation | Fabric |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NSS Galaxy Blinds | 100 mm | 4.5 m | Electric remote | Woven mesh |
| NSS Universal Blinds Same motor, same mesh — Universal trades a 130 mm pelmet for another 1.5 m of span. | 130 mm | 6.0 m | Electric remote | Woven mesh |
| NSS Luna Outdoor Window Blinds Luna is the window version: smaller, and it takes a 100% blockout fabric Galaxy does not. | 100 mm | 2.7 m | Electric remote | Woven mesh, 100% blockout |
An NSS Galaxy blind spans up to 4.5 metres in a single sheet with no join in the fabric. For openings wider than 4.5 metres, NSS Universal spans up to 6 metres.
NSS Galaxy runs on a 100 mm pelmet and spans up to 4.5 m. NSS Universal runs on a 130 mm pelmet and spans up to 6 m. The choice is simply whether the opening is wide enough to need Universal, because Galaxy's pelmet is smaller.
NSS Galaxy blinds run on a 240 volt motor operated by wireless remote, so the blind can be raised or lowered from anywhere in the house with no cords, cranks or clips.
NSS Galaxy blinds are powder-coated in the Interpon Textura range, which includes Colorbond® colours, so the frame can be matched to an existing roof, gutter or window frame.
NSS Galaxy blinds use woven mesh at 94% or 99% blockout, which cuts up to 95% of UV while keeping the outward view.
Galaxy runs on a 240 volt motor, so switch operation as well as wireless remote is available. Confirm the arrangement at the measure, because it affects where the electrician needs to run the cable.
Price depends on the width, the drop, the fabric and how many blinds are being made at once, so Nu Style quotes after measuring rather than from a price list. The measure and quote are free and carry no obligation.
The motor and mesh are built for outdoor use and need no routine servicing. Nu Style supports the product locally for its life — one customer had a controller replaced free of charge seven years after installation, out of warranty.
