Please note: Additional fasteners other than those sent with
your blind may be required depending on the mounting surface.
Wallboard and plaster require the use of anchors such as expansion
or toggle bolts. Brick, tile or stone need special plugs and drill bits.
Remember to always pre-drill holes in wood to avoid splitting
1. Positioning the blind
1. A Inside the recess
Decide the position of the blind so that it will be clear of any latches
and fixtures. If you need to reduce the width of the blind to fit the
recess, this should be done before assembling.
See "Reducing the width" instructions below.
1. B Outside the recess
Decide the position of the blind so that the overlaps on both sides
are equal. It is advisable to allow a minimum of 5cm overlap on each
side.
2. Assembling the blind
2. A Blinds are normally hung so that the fabric is drawn down from the
back of the roller next to the window, with the face of the fabric
towards the room.
3. Fixing the brackets
3. A The brackets are designed for side, face, or top fixing to frame, wall,
or ceiling.
3. B Present the blind and brackets to the desired position. It is important
for the operation of the blind that it is level and square. Check
using a spirit level.
3. C Mark the location of both end brackets with a pencil.
3. D Take the blind down and remove the brackets.
3. E Place one of the brackets on its location markings and mark through
the desired screw hole positions.
3. F Use the No. 6 wood screws supplied to fix the bracket to wood. For
masonary, use masonary plugs.
3. J Double check the location of the other brackets so that both are
level and square with the recess. Repeat step E. and F. for fixing the
second bracket.
4. Reducing the width
4. A Tools required are a hacksaw and sharp, heavy duty scissors, or a craft
knife.
Unroll the blind fully. Slide ONLY the required amount of fabric out
of the side of the tube that needs to be trimmed o . DO NOT
REMOVE ALL THE FABRIC FROM THE TUBE.
If patterns or detail need to be kept symmetrical, then cut equal
amounts from both ends.
4. B To fit a recess, carefully measure its width and deduct 3.3cm. Mark
this measurement and cut the roller tube with the hacksaw.
The fabric width should be cut 0.2cm less than the roller tube. Mark
the measurement and trim the fabric to the new width using scissors
or a craft knife.
4. C Cut the bottom bar to the same width as the fabric using the
hacksaw. Replace any end caps or finials.
