Product Information
Full details
This white Caecus roller blind is designed for homeowners seeking a stylish yet practical window shading solution that offers gentle light filtering and privacy. Its key benefit is the ease of installation and adjustable drop. A potential consideration is that it is a dim-out blind, not fully blackout, so some light may still penetrate.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this a blackout blind?
No, this is a dim-out blind. It filters light and provides privacy but will allow some light to penetrate.
What are the dimensions of the blind?
The blind has a drop of 160cm. The width is not specified in the product description, but it is mounted on a 25mm aluminium tube.
Can I cut the blind to size?
While the drop is adjustable via the winder, cutting the fabric width is not recommended and may void any warranty.
How do I clean the blind fabric?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or soaking the fabric.
What type of fixings are included?
The product includes metal mounting brackets and the blind mechanism. Screws for installation are typically not included and should be selected based on your wall type.
Is the side winder reversible for left or right fitting?
The product description mentions a side winder mechanism but does not specify if it's reversible. However, the easy-fit brackets offer flexibility in placement.
Troubleshooting
Blind does not lower or raise smoothly
Check the side winder mechanism for any obstructions. Ensure the fabric is not snagged or unevenly rolled on the tube. Clean the winder mechanism if it appears dusty.
Brackets feel loose
Ensure the screws securing the brackets to the wall or frame are fully tightened. Use appropriate wall anchors if mounting into plasterboard.
Fabric is creased
Hang the blind fully extended for a few days to allow creases to fall out naturally. You can also try a very lightly damp cloth on the fabric, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Identify the mounting location: inside or outside the recess, top, face, or side fix.
- Attach the included metal mounting brackets to the wall or window frame using appropriate screws (not included).
- Hook the aluminium tube of the blind onto the brackets.

This blind is designed for standard window recesses and frames. The easy-fit brackets offer versatility for most common installation scenarios. Ensure the width of your window is suitable for the blind's dimensions (width not specified, but assume standard sizing).
Care:
Clean the fabric with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the dim-out material. Regularly check the side winder mechanism for smooth operation.
