FAQs

What is the actual fabric width compared to the blind width?

The actual roller fabric width is approximately 4cm (1.5 inches) narrower than the overall stated blind width.

Can I cut the blind to my specific window size?

Yes, the blind can be easily trimmed with a sharp pair of scissors for the fabric and a hack saw for the roller tube to achieve a custom fit.

How do I clean the blackout roller blind?

The polyester fabric is easy to care for and can be wiped clean with a slightly damp cloth.

What is the maximum length of the blind?

The blind has a maximum drop of 210cm.

Is this blind suitable for a bathroom?

While the fabric is easy to wipe clean, it's not specifically designed for high-moisture environments. Use with caution in bathrooms.

What is included in the fitting kit?

Everything needed for fitting is included, such as brackets and screws. You will need to provide a pencil and drill.

Does it come with a child safety device?

Yes, a child safety clip is provided for added peace of mind to secure the pull cord.

Troubleshooting

Blind does not roll smoothly

Check that the roller tube is not obstructed. Ensure the blind is mounted straight and not angled. Clean any dust or debris from the roller mechanism.

Fabric is creased

Allow the blind to hang fully extended for a few days. Gentle steaming from a distance might help, but avoid direct contact with the fabric.

Light still seeps through the edges

Ensure the blind is mounted as close to the window frame as possible. For side gaps, consider ordering a wider blind or adding side channels if feasible.

Pull cord is too long or tangled

Use the provided child safety clip to secure the cord at an appropriate tension. Re-thread the cord if it becomes excessively tangled.
