Double honeycomb blinds?

Hi 

I was looking at blinds2go however they have a max width of 210cm. My measurements are 2256mm (width) x 1347mm (height)

Are there any companies that accommodate larger blind sizes?

Thanks

    Is that one single window? We had 2 smaller blinds for this reason. The “join” is where there is a pane frame.

    I didn't even realise that's possible!
    I've asked for some blackout samples from here anyway

    I'd want their electric option. With blinds2go, they're corded which means you can add a "Switchbot blind tilt" for just £60

    But when there's no cord, pretty much the only way to electrify them is if the manufacturer / retailer offers such an option

    We have one wide opening that has a large pane on one side and then a smaller pane with a top opener on one side. So the ratio is 4:1. We have one large blind covering the big pane and another blind covering the smaller panes. Both electrically operated and app controlled, so they move together. There is a gap of a few cm between the 2 blinds when they are both down, but behind the gap is the pane frames, so the gap doesn’t show glass behind. 

    I think the problem with extra wide blinds is they will tend to dip in the middle if they are two wide and there is nowhere to put a centre supporting post if the blind is to move freely.
