The fabric size for this specific model is 100 x 230 cm. Note that the actual width of the fabric may be slightly less than the total width of the headrail.
While it is technically possible to cut the fabric, it is not recommended as it can compromise the blackout and thermal properties, and may lead to fraying. Precise measurement before purchase is advised.
During installation, you can choose to attach the ball chain mechanism to either the left or right side of the blind to suit your preference and window accessibility.
The thermoplastic silver-coloured layer provides thermal insulation, helping to keep your room cooler in the summer by reflecting heat and warmer in the winter by reducing heat loss.
This specific product is in a coffee colour. Other colours like Black and Beige are available in the VidaXL Blackout Roller Blinds range.
While they offer privacy, they are not specifically designed for high-moisture environments. Ensure good ventilation if used in a bathroom and clean with a damp cloth, avoiding excessive water.
Basic tools typically required include a drill, a screwdriver, a level, and a measuring tape. All mounting hardware such as screws and wall plugs are included.
Check if the fabric is rolling evenly onto the tube and ensure there are no obstructions. Verify that the bottom rail is not catching on anything.
Ensure the blind is installed as close to the window frame as possible. For a more complete seal, consider side channel tracks if light leakage is a critical concern, though these are not included.
Reattach the chain to the mechanism, ensuring it is properly seated. If it feels stiff, check for any twists or tangles in the chain.
Re-tighten the screws securing the brackets to the wall or ceiling. If the screws are stripped, use larger anchors or a different mounting method suitable for your wall type.
Setup: The blinds come with a comprehensive set of accessories for mounting. Identify whether you will be wall-mounting or ceiling-mounting. Attach the brackets securely to the chosen surface using the provided screws and wall plugs. Ensure the brackets are level and properly spaced according to the blind's width. Once the brackets are in place, slide the aluminum top rail into the designated slots on the brackets. The PVC bottom rail should hang freely. The ball chain can be attached to either side for operation.
Compatibility: These blinds are designed for standard window and door frames. Ensure the surface you are mounting to is structurally sound to support the weight of the blinds and their components.
Care: To clean the blinds, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as this could damage the fabric or the thermal backing. Periodically check that all mounting hardware is secure.
