Installation Guide
Roller Blinds
Before you begin
Fitting the brackets
We will have positioned the controls where you
requested during the ordering process. However if
you decide to swap the side that they are on,
direction of the roll or need to trim the blind further,
the controls can be removed by simply unplugging
them from the tube. This should be done prior to
fixing the brackets.
Note that the end opposite to the controls (the
‘pin-end’ or ‘depression-end’) can vary in style. As a
general rule, smaller blinds will be sent with a
cross-shaped pin-end, whilst wider blinds tend to
come with a circular pin-end. The instructions below
are the same for both designs.
The brackets offer three methods of installation:
Top Tip
Top-fixing or face-fixing are recommended for most installations, whereas
side-fixing is only
recommended if the width you gave us was taken right at the top of the recess.
Top-Fixing
Where the brackets are
screwed into the lintel (or
‘ceiling’ of the recess)
Face-Fixing
Where the brackets are
screwed onto a facing surface
(a wall or window frame)
Side-Fixing
Where the brackets are
screwed into the side walls of
the recess
