Summary of Contents for Louvolite Perfect Fit

  • Page 1 Perfect Fit Roller Blind System Measuring, assembly & fitting instructions...
  • Page 2 Seal Check clearance around the window The Perfect Fit framework needs a minimum of 6mm clearance all round the window frame. Seals must not protrude over the glass by more than 6mm. If the seal is compressible, you can take a ‘bead to bead’ measurement. If not, then take a ‘seal to seal’ measurement.
  • Page 3 Measure both corners and the middle and use the smallest measurement taken. Repeat the above step for the drop. For more information on measuring, see Louvolite Perfect Fit measuring, assembling and fitting instructions for pleated and venetian blinds.
  • Page 4 This will determine the size of the window fixing brackets required. You can utilise the Perfect Fit survey sheet to record this information. For more information on measuring, see Louvolite Perfect Fit measuring, assembling and fitting instructions for pleated and venetian blinds.

Once ‘Wrap Tension’ has been applied ensure that end caps are located into the side channel. Fix securely with the two screws on each joint.
  • Page 18 Adding ‘Wrap Tension’ In order for the fabric to roll up, we need to add ‘wrap tension’ at the top of the blind. 1. Pull down the blind (do not manually push back up as it needs to raise naturally with the tension) 2.
  • Page 19 Finished Blind Last of all, ensure that the blind end caps fit into side grooves. Fit all corner joint covers into position and your blind is finished.
  • Page 20 Fitting Perfect Fit To ensure all brackets are in the correct position for fitting (85mm from beading) use a credit card in the corner of the window to locate the bracket position. For ease of insertion, use a lubricant in the form of washing up liquid on the base of each bracket.
