FAQs

What does 'made to measure' mean for these blinds?

It means you provide your exact window measurements, and the blinds are cut to fit those dimensions perfectly. You will need to specify if your measurement is for Inside Recess, Outside Recess, or Fabric Size.

Can I change the drop length of the blind after I receive it?

No, the drop length cannot be altered. It is crucial to provide the correct drop measurement during the made-to-measure ordering process.

What colors are available?

This specific listing is for the blue color family. Other color options may be available in different product listings.

How effective is the blackout feature?

The blackout fabric is designed to block out nearly all light, creating a dark environment. However, minor light leakage may occur at the edges depending on installation precision.

What type of fittings are included?

The product description mentions round eyelets and metal fittings. Specific fitting details should be confirmed with the product packaging or manufacturer.

How do I clean the blackout roller blinds?

Dust regularly with a dry cloth. For light cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or soaking the fabric.

Are these blinds suitable for bathrooms?

While they offer privacy, blackout roller blinds made of standard fabric may not be ideal for high-moisture environments like bathrooms due to potential for mold or fabric damage. Check material specifications if moisture resistance is a concern.

Troubleshooting

Blind does not retract smoothly.

Check for any obstructions in the window recess or along the blind's path. Ensure the blind is hanging straight and not caught on anything. If the issue persists, the internal mechanism may require adjustment or professional attention.

Light is leaking around the edges.

This can occur if the blind is not wide enough for the recess or is not installed straight. For outside recess installations, ensure sufficient overlap on all sides. Precise made-to-measure ordering is crucial for minimizing light gaps.

Fabric appears creased or wrinkled.

Allow the blind to hang fully extended for a few days; gravity may help smooth out minor creases. For stubborn wrinkles, a low-heat iron on the *reverse* side of the fabric (with a protective cloth) might be used cautiously, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Measure your window precisely, noting whether the measurement is for 'Inside Recess', 'Outside Recess', or 'Fabric Size'.
  2. Provide these exact measurements when ordering your made-to-measure blinds.
  3. Follow the included instructions for mounting the brackets and attaching the roller blind.

Compatibility:

These blinds are designed for standard window installations. Ensure the space above the window is sufficient to accommodate the roller mechanism and the blind when fully retracted.

Care:

  • Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth or a feather duster.
  • For minor marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Ensure the blind is fully retracted before cleaning to prevent damage to the fabric or mechanism.
