Note that the position of the outermost brackets should be
at least 5cm away from the ends of the rail, with any other
brackets evenly distributed across the width

If you’re using top-fix brackets, make sure that you mount them at least 7.5cm in front of either
the window frame, or any protruding vents or handes, if there are any. This allows space for the
louvres to turn open and closed.

Your vertical blind is fully compliant with the latest safety
standards. It has been supplied with a ‘P-Clip’ tensioning device
to keep the cords and the chain child safe.
Slot both the cord and the beaded chain into the ‘P-Clip’ and
secure it to the wall or window frame (if you are fixing to the
facing surface then the cord and chain will form a figure of
eight, this is fine and will not affect the operation of your blind).

We will have positioned the controls where you requested during the ordering process. However if you decide to swap the side that they are on, direction of the roll or need to trim the blind further, the controls can be removed by simply unplugging them from the tube. This should be done prior to fixing the brackets.

Locate the pin-end (the opposite end to the controls) of the blind into the central hole in the corresponding bracket.

Lift the control end of the blind and slot the rectangular ‘lugs’ into the corresponding slots on the bracket.

The cord retaining device must be installed at the maximum distance possible from the control mechanism to prevent looped cords from becoming slack.

Place the retaining device on the wall and mark the position of the screw hole(s) with a pencil.

Attach the retaining device to the wall using the fixings provided.

Roller blinds can have the fabric rolled onto the tube in two directions. The first is referred to as a ‘standard’ roll. This will place the fabric closest to the window or wall so that it comes down at the back of the tube. This is typically used with blackout blinds when they are mounted outside of a recess, the standard roll meaning that there is less light leakage.

The second method is referred to as a ‘reverse’ roll, which places the fabric so that it comes down at the front of the tube, effectively hiding the roll. This method will allow clearance behind the fabric, for window handles and other obstructions, if you’re mounting the blind inside a recess.

If you wish to change the roll method then it’s easy; simply pull the back of the chain to lower the blind, and continue pulling until the metal tube is exposed. Keep going and the blind will begin to raise, with the fabric now rolling up over the front of the roller tube. Note that this will reverse the direction you must pull the chain for raising and lowering the blind (you’ll now use the front of the chain to lower and the back of the chain to raise).
