Your blind is made-to-measure. Our measuring guide will help you get it right.

Choose between the material coming over the front of the top bar hiding the bar
or going behind, closer to the window. Note all materials are white on the reverse.

The bottom edge of the blind is rolled around the bottom bar for a neat finish - we don't hem as the stitching spoils the picture and the effect.

There are two types of mechanism:
Side-winding
Choose a side-winding mechanism for complete control.
Options:
Bead chain can be white or chrome.
Bead chain to hang on the left or right side.

Sprung
A sprung mechanism has a central cord and choice of toggles (or just a bar, please ask).
The strength of the spring and be easily increased or decreased.

We use only the best quality components.
They are suitable for damp/steamy environments such as bathrooms.
The top bar is aluminium.
The side winding fixing brackets are unobtrusive, white, powder-coated aluminium (as shown below) or white plastic.
Each bracket takes two screws.
The mechanism and brackets extend approximately 18mm from each side of the material.

Top
We use waterproof solvent inks which are bonded to the materials.
This makes them very tough and highly scratch resistant.
They are superior to inks that are printed as a separate layer.
The inks are unlikely to fade even in direct sun.
Shades of colour may vary from those you see on your computer screen and printer.
If colour is critical, please let us know. Please also look at our colour match page.

The blinds are universal which means they can be fitted to the ceiling, window/wall or the side walls of the window recess.
Installation is very easy. There are only two screws per bracket and the blinds come with full instructions.
We don't supply screws as it's important that the correct screws are used for the material to which the blinds are fitted.
