FAQs

How do I measure for the blinds?

Measure the width and drop of your window, considering whether you want an inside or outside recess fit. For an inside recess fit, measure the exact width and height of the recess. For an outside recess fit, measure the desired width and height, adding extra for overlap.

Can I cut the slats?

Yes, you can trim the slats at the top to adjust the length. Ensure you reinsert them into the hangers after trimming.

What if my window is not a standard size?

You can trim the header rail with a hacksaw and shorten the slats to fit your window. The adjustable features make these blinds adaptable.

Are these blinds child safe?

The control wand is designed to be child-safe. It eliminates the need for cords.

How do I clean the blinds?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the slats regularly. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What should I do if a slat breaks?

Contact customer service to inquire about replacement slats. In the meantime, you can temporarily remove the broken slat or insert a spare if available.

Can I install these blinds myself?

Yes, the blinds come with easy-to-follow instructions and all necessary fittings. You will need a drill for installation.

Troubleshooting

Blinds are not opening or closing correctly.

Check the tilt and turn wand operation. Ensure nothing is obstructing the slats. Verify the chains are properly connected and not tangled.

Blinds are too long.

Remove the slats and trim the tops. Reinsert them into the hangers. Ensure the weights are still attached.

Header rail is too wide.

Use a hacksaw to trim the header rail to the correct width.

Slats are not hanging straight.

Check the hangers on the header rail and ensure they are properly seated and aligned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Preparation: Gather all components, including the header rail, slats, weights, chains, hangers, and fittings. You will need a drill, measuring tape, and a pencil.
  2. Mounting: Decide on top or face fixing, inside or outside the recess. Use the provided screws to secure the header rail to your chosen surface. Ensure it is level.
  3. Hanging Slats: Attach the hangers to the header rail. Insert the slats into the hangers.
  4. Weights and Chains: Attach the bottom weights to the slats and connect them with the chains.
  5. Operation: Use the tilt and turn wand to open, close, and tilt the slats to your desired position.

Compatibility

  • Recess Types: Suitable for both inside and outside recess installations.
  • Tools Required: Drill, measuring tape, pencil, and possibly a hacksaw.

Care

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the slats regularly. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Dusting: Dust the blinds frequently to prevent buildup. A feather duster works well.
  • Maintenance: Check the chains and weights periodically to ensure they are properly attached.
  • Adjustments: If slats become uneven, check the hangers and realign them as needed.
