FAQs
Does this blind come in different colors?
This specific model is finished in black.
Can this blind be trimmed to size?
The blind is designed to be used at its provided dimensions of 185 x 230 cm; trimming is not recommended as it may damage the fabric weave.
How do I secure the blind at the bottom?
The blind is operated via a pull cord; for stability, ensure it is installed correctly in the brackets provided.
Is the material waterproof?
The fabric is designed for shade and privacy; while it is water-resistant, it is breathable and not intended to serve as a complete rain shield.
Can I install this on a pergola?
Yes, it is designed for use on porches and pergolas, provided there is a sturdy wooden or metal beam to mount the brackets.
Is the blind child-safe?
Please note the warning: keep all pull cords out of the reach of young children to avoid the risk of strangulation.
Troubleshooting
The blind does not roll up evenly
Check the mounting brackets to ensure they are perfectly level; adjust the alignment if one side is lower than the other.
The fabric appears dirty
Gently hose the blind down with clean water and allow it to air dry completely before rolling it back up to prevent mildew.
Pull cord is stuck
Unroll the blind completely and check the pulley mechanism at the top for debris or tangles; remove any obstructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is simple using the provided mounting accessories. Ensure you have a level surface or sturdy header to anchor the brackets, as the blind spans 185 cm. Check your structural mounting point for weight-bearing capacity before drilling. Regarding care, the HDPE material is low-maintenance; simply hose it down with water or wipe it with a damp cloth periodically to remove dust or pollen. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that might degrade the fabric coating. During extreme weather events, such as high-wind storms or winter months, it is highly recommended to retract the blind completely to protect the mechanism and fabric.
