Product Information
Full details
This dim-out roller blind from Caecus is ideal for homeowners seeking to enhance privacy and gently filter light in their living spaces. Its key benefit lies in its versatile installation and child-safe design, offering both functionality and peace of mind. A potential caveat is that while it filters light, it is not a blackout blind, allowing some ambient light through. The blind features a 25mm aluminium tube, metal mounting brackets, and a child-safe side winder, with a 160cm drop for adjustable coverage. The fabric provides a soft diffusion of light while maintaining room privacy.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this blind a blackout blind?
No, this is a dim-out blind. It filters light gently and provides privacy but will still allow some ambient light to pass through.
What are the dimensions of the aluminium tube?
The aluminium tube has a diameter of 25mm.
Can I cut the blind to a shorter length?
While the blind has a 160cm drop, it is not designed to be easily cut. Adjusting the drop is done by lowering it to the desired point using the side winder.
What type of brackets are included?
The blind includes metal mounting brackets that can be top or face fixed, suitable for inside or outside recess mounting.
How do I operate the side winder?
The side winder typically consists of a cord and a mechanism that allows you to pull the cord down to lower the blind and gently push it up or wind it to raise it.
Is the orange colour very bright?
The 'Orange' colour provides a warm tone. It filters light, so the perceived brightness will depend on the ambient light conditions.
What is the warranty period for this blind?
Information regarding warranty is not provided in the product details.
Troubleshooting
Blind does not lower or raise smoothly.
Check that the side winder cord is not tangled and that there are no obstructions in the blind's path. Ensure the blind is mounted straight.
Bracket feels loose after installation.
Ensure the screws used for fixing the brackets are tightened securely into the wall or window frame. Use appropriate wall plugs if fixing into drywall.
Fabric appears creased.
Allow the blind to hang for a few days after installation; minor creases often disappear on their own. If persistent, a very lightly damp cloth can be used on the fabric, ensuring it is completely dry before raising.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The blind comes with metal mounting brackets that offer flexibility. You can choose to top fix them (inside the window frame) or face fix them (on the wall or window frame). The brackets are designed for easy fitting, allowing for installation both inside and outside the window recess.
Compatibility: This blind is suitable for most standard window sizes where the 160cm drop is sufficient. The mechanism is designed for smooth operation.
Care: To clean the fabric, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the dim-out coating. For the metal components, a dry or slightly damp cloth is recommended.
