FAQs

What are the dimensions of the blind?

The blind dimensions are Height: 150 cm and Depth/Width: 85 cm. Please note that the fabric width is narrower than the total width including brackets.

How do I calculate the correct width to order?

Measure your window glass width and add 4.1 cm to ensure complete coverage, as the fabric itself is slightly narrower than the overall blind width including the side brackets.

What material is the blind made of?

The blind is made from 100% durable and low-maintenance polyester.

Can I install this blind without drilling holes?

Yes, the blind can be installed without drilling by using the provided clamping brackets, depending on your window frame's suitability.

How do I clean the zebra blind?

The blind is easy to maintain. Light dusting or wiping with a slightly damp cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.

What is the purpose of the alternating strips?

The zebra blind features alternating opaque and transparent fabric strips. This design allows for precise control over light and privacy, enabling you to adjust the room's ambiance from translucent to fully darkened.

Is this blind safe for children's rooms?

The blind includes child safety features such as a cord clip to keep cords out of reach. However, it is crucial to always follow safety guidelines, such as keeping cords away from furniture and ensuring they are never tied together, as pull cords can pose a strangulation hazard to young children.

Troubleshooting

Blind does not hang straight.

Ensure the mounting brackets are level and securely fastened. Check if the pull chain is entangled or if the fabric has a slight crease from packaging; allow it to hang for a day to naturally straighten.

Chain hoist is stiff or difficult to operate.

Check the chain for any knots or obstructions. Ensure it is properly seated in the mechanism. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Fabric is creased or wrinkled.

Allow the blind to hang fully extended for several hours or overnight. For stubborn creases, a very low-heat iron can be used on the *back* of the opaque fabric panels only, with a protective cloth placed over the fabric. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

Clamping brackets feel insecure.

Ensure the brackets are tightened firmly onto the window frame according to their specific design. If they do not feel secure, consider using the screw-mount installation method instead.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Measure your window: Ensure you measure the window glass width. Add 4.1 cm to this measurement to determine the required blind width, as the fabric is narrower than the overall width including brackets.
  2. Choose Installation Method: Decide whether to mount the blind using screws (to the wall or window frame) or opt for the drill-free method using clamping brackets. Follow the specific instructions provided with the chosen mounting hardware.
  3. Attach Brackets: Securely install the brackets according to your chosen method.
  4. Hang the Blind: Mount the blind onto the installed brackets.
  5. Install Safety Device: Attach the cord clip to secure the pull cord and keep it out of reach of children.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for most standard window sizes. Always verify measurements before purchase.
  • Clamping brackets are designed for windows where drilling is not possible or desired, but check compatibility with your specific window frame type.

Care:

  • The 100% polyester fabric is durable and low-maintenance.
  • For regular cleaning, a light dusting with a dry cloth or a feather duster is recommended.
  • For tougher marks, gently wipe the fabric with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture or harsh cleaning chemicals.
