Building a box for roller blinds

[NoOne2k]

I have a 4m wide roller blind that I plan to hide above the window so that it's not visible. I've been going back and forth on how to solve this in the best way, what does the forum say about this solution? It's an electric 240v motorized blind, do I need to consider having access to it from time to time?

I have a 4m wide roller blind that I want to hide above the window so that it's not visible. I've been going back and forth on how to best solve it, what does the forum say about this solution? It is an electric 240v motorized blind, do you need to consider being able to access it occasionally?

Is the 'box' you're going to hide the roller blind in supposed to be attached to the ceiling? It seems like it could become quite a bulky thing, but I don't know how the rest of the room looks. I have an idea, I'll see if I can get a simple sketch together.

Should the 'box' you are going to hide the roller blind in be mounted on the ceiling? It seems like it would be a rather bulky thing, but I don't know how it looks in the room otherwise. I have an idea, I'll see if I can put together a simple sketch.

It will be recessed into the wall above the window and hidden in the wall.

It will then be recessed into the wall above the window and lie hidden in the wall

Aha, I didn't understand that.

Hi, how did it go for you? I'm considering a similar solution over my patio doors, which for some reason open inward.

It worked out just fine. Followed the drawing in the first post, became stable and good, the downside is that the day it needs to be replaced, you have to locate the screw heads and repaint the entire wall when taking down the motor.

There are pros and cons to everything. Unfortunately, I have moved from the house, but I don't have to worry about how to solve potential issues the day they arise.

Today, five years later, it works daily. The installation became invisible.

Additionally, I chose to recess spotlights into the horizontal cover board that is 100mm wide.
