Inside Recess Fit

If you want the blind fitted inside the window recess, you need to measure the full width and height of the recessed area (wall to wall).

1. Take three width measurements across the recess – top, middle, and bottom.
2. Take three height measurements – left, centre, and right.
3. Always use a steel tape measure, recording the sizes in centimetres to the nearest millimetre.
4. Use the smallest measurement when placing your order to ensure the blind fits correctly.
5. The factory will make any deductions required for recess-specified blinds.
6. Check carefully for obstructions such as tiles, handles, or rails to make sure your measurements are accurate.

Outside Recess Fit

If the blind is to be fitted outside the window recess, it will be made exactly to the measurements you provide with no deductions.

• Measure the area you want the blind to cover. To block out sunlight effectively, we recommend overlapping by 6 cm on each side and 7 cm above the window.
• Be careful of any obstructions such as tiles or rails.
• You can choose whether or not to overlap at the bottom, depending on your preference.

Please choose which fitting method you would like:

• Top Mount: Mounted to an overhead surface, such as the top of the window recess or the ceiling.
• Face Mount: Mounted to the front of the window frame outside the recess.

Fitting Instructions

1. Position the brackets so the blind can move freely without touching handles or the window frame.
2. Place both brackets loosely on the blind and hold it in position to help you centre it.
3. Fix the control side bracket on the same side as the chain mechanism. Make sure it is level and not twisted, as this will affect how the blind works. Drill holes and secure with raw plugs if fitting to a wall.
4. Insert one end of the blind into the mounted bracket. Place the other bracket at the opposite end, mark its position, check it is level with the first, drill holes, and fix it securely.

Mounting the Blind

• Insert the pin end of the blind into the pin-side bracket. The spring-loaded pin makes mounting and removing easier.
• Place the control mechanism into the control-side bracket. The central lug should face downwards and slot securely into the cross section of the bracket.

Operating the Blind

• Once installed, simply use the side chain to raise and lower the blind.

P-Clip Installation

• Install the P-clip as far away from the control mechanism as possible to stop the looped chain from becoming loose.
• Make sure the control chain is fitted inside the P-clip. The chain should remain tight, with the P-clip positioned at the bottom of the loop.
• Fix the tensioning device securely to the wall, in line with the blind, to keep the chain permanently tight and under constant tension.
