Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this rail come with the fabric slats?

No, this product is the header rail only and is designed to accommodate your existing 89mm slats.

Can I trim the 240cm rail to fit a smaller window?

Yes, the aluminum rail can be cut down to fit specific window dimensions, though care must be taken to maintain the internal gear components.

Is the wand operation child-safe?

Yes, by eliminating loops and hanging cords, the wand-operated system removes common strangulation hazards.

Can I switch the wand to the other side later?

Yes, the system is designed to allow the control rod to be moved to either the left or right side of the rail.

What width slats does this rail fit?

This rail is specifically engineered for 89mm vertical blind slats.

Troubleshooting

Slats are not rotating evenly

Check if the internal gear mechanism is aligned and ensure the slats are fully inserted into the carrier hooks.

The rail does not snap into the brackets

Verify that the mounting brackets are installed at the correct depth and are perfectly aligned horizontally.

Slats are catching while sliding

Inspect the track for any obstruction and ensure the carrier trucks are not twisted inside the rail channel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates dangling cords to enhance child and pet safety
  • Durable construction suitable for both home and workplace environments
  • Versatile rod positioning allows for left or right-hand operation
  • Simplified installation process with clip-in brackets

Cons

  • Fixed 240cm length may require professional cutting for smaller windows
  • Compatibility limited strictly to 89mm slat widths
  • Does not include fabric slats, only the head rail

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installing the Caecus 240cm rail involves mounting the included clip-in brackets to your window frame or wall. Ensure the surface is level to prevent the carrier trucks from sliding unevenly. Once the brackets are secure, snap the rail into place. To configure the control side, simply attach the wand to your preferred end before fully securing the rail. For care, keep the track clear of debris to maintain smooth movement. Periodically dusting the rail with a soft cloth will prevent buildup in the carrier channels. If the track feels stiff, a light silicone-based spray can be applied sparingly to the inner track.
