The maximum width is 210cm and the maximum drop is 210cm. While the width can be cut down, the drop is fixed at 210cm. For windows larger than this, alternative solutions might be needed.
The aluminium headrail and plastic fittings can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. The fabric should be cleaned according to its specific care instructions.
Yes, the kit is designed for DIY use and includes most components needed. Basic sewing and measuring skills are recommended for best results.
The kit includes a child safety cord cleat, which allows you to secure the operating cord or chain out of reach of children, minimizing potential hazards.
Check that the cord is not tangled within the mechanism or the fabric pockets. Ensure the fibreglass rods and bottom weight bar are correctly inserted and not obstructing the cord.
Ensure the PVC clip-in wall supports are firmly screwed into the wall. Check that the headrail is properly clipped into the supports. Use appropriate wall plugs for your wall type.
Verify that the fibreglass rods are evenly spaced within the fabric pockets and that the bottom weight bar is centered. Ensure the headrail is mounted perfectly level.
Ensure the cord is wound around the cleat correctly and that the cleat is securely mounted to the wall at a height that prevents children from reaching the cord.
