FAQs

How do I measure my window for the blind?

Measure the width and height of the window frame. Ensure the 90cm width will fit within your window frame for proper installation.

Can I trim the blind to fit my window?

No, the blinds are not designed to be trimmed. Ensure you measure your window correctly and purchase the appropriate size.

What tools do I need for installation?

Typically, you'll need a screwdriver, drill (if not using adhesive), and a measuring tape. The specific tools may vary based on your mounting preference and the included hardware.

How do I clean the blackout fabric?

Dust regularly with a soft cloth. For tougher stains, gently wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the fabric.

What is the material of the blind?

The material is designed to effectively block out light, often using a specific fabric composition that ensures complete darkness.

Are the blinds easy to install?

Yes, they are designed for easy installation, with straightforward instructions and minimal tools required.

What if the blind gets wet?

If the blind gets wet, allow it to dry completely in the open position to prevent mildew or damage. Avoid excessive moisture.

Troubleshooting

Blind won't fully roll up or down.

Check for obstructions in the window frame or along the blind's edges. Ensure the mechanism is not jammed. If necessary, slightly adjust the tension of the spring mechanism.

Blind is difficult to operate.

Check that the operating cord is not tangled or knotted. Lubricate the mechanism with a small amount of silicone spray if necessary.

Fabric has creases or wrinkles.

Use a handheld steamer on a low setting, holding the steamer a few inches away from the fabric, to gently smooth out the wrinkles. Be careful not to overheat the fabric.
