HOW TO MEASURE YOUR WINDOW FOR ROLLER BLINDS

BLACKOUT MATERIAL:

Our blackout material is designed for areas where a higher level of light exclusion is required.

The material includes a PVC coating for easy clean. The blind can be wiped down.

Material Composition: 4-ply; 75% PVC, 25% Fibreglass.

This material contains Biosafe®

Shading: Blackout

TRANSLUCENT MATERIAL:

Our translucent fabric has the feel of a finely textured canvas fabric similar to the ones used to create canvas photo prints.

Our translucent blinds do let light through them. Because of this, the print will be slightly less vivid when the light hits through but you cannot see through the material.

Features: Tearproof

Recess or outside recess fitting?

When a window is not flush to the wall, a recess is created. This internal space in a room is rarely used during the day, unless the sill of the window is put to some use. Therefore, hanging a blind outside of the recess usually causes no problem in terms of lost space, but fitting inside will make the blind nearer to the window.

When deciding on mounting inside or outside recess, ensure that there are no obtruding objects (window catches, electrical sockets, tiles etc.) to hinder the operation of the blind.

What we do

INSIDE RECESS FIT

For an inside recess fit we deduct 35mm from the width measurement you provide us to ensure that the blind with the controls and brackets will fit the into the recess of your window.

Remember the actual fabric of the blind will be about 35mm narrower than the measurements you give us.

For example, if your inside recess is 100cm wide, we will make the blind material to 96.5cm wide and then once the end fittings are applied the overall width will then be 100cm wide.

OUTSIDE RECESS

You may not have a recessed window or for blackout purposes you may want to cover the entire window space. In these cases, this is the option to select.

The blind material will be made exactly to the sizes you give to us. 

For example, if your measurement is 100cm wide, we will make the blind material to 100cm wide and then once the end fittings are applied the overall width will then be 103.5cm wide.

ROLL TYPE

The blind can either roll from behind the roller or over the front of the roller. Typically, roller blinds are positioned so that the blind rolls from behind the top roller, especially for inside recess fit blinds so that they are as close to the window as possible.

However, if you have objects that protrude from the window, you may decide to roll the blind over the roller. This way, the blind will not be obstructed when it is pulled down over the window.

Powershade Remote

Remote controlled blinds are a must have for your home!

Powershade is a motorised blind system. The blinds are controlled by a remote control allowing you to be able to put your blinds up or down without the use of a cord or chain.

You can also work two or more blinds from the one hand set if requested. These are available to buy with any printed roller blind that you purchase. 

The motor is housed inside the top roller tube making for a neat system. The motor is a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Charging time is around 2 hours and the battery should last up to five months.  

If you decide to purchase one of our blinds with the remote control option then the printed roller blind will come fully assembled with the motorised mechanism, so there is no need to worry about assembling it.

You will receive one controller and one charger.

Once the blind stops responding to the controller, simply charge the motor up by plugging the charger into the side of the blind (you don't need to remove the blind to do this).

• 1 x Remote
• 1 x Pre installed motorised mechanism
• 1 x Charger (for remote)
• Ready to be used
• No Pull Cord
• Easy to Use
• No installation of motors etc, everything comes already installed into the blind ready to go
• Last approx 5 months before the motor needs charging.

PULL CORD

We have two options for you to choose from if you chose to order your blind with a pull cord:

1. deluxe metal chain (nickel plated) in silver

or

2. plastic white chain

Please note: the metal chain is an additional £5.00

Always follow the safety instructions regarding the blind chain/cord which are included in the leaflet sent out with your blind. If you require any further information, don't hesitate to contact us.
