FAQs

What is the main advantage of a day night roller blind?

The primary advantage is its dual-layer design, allowing you to switch between diffusing natural light with sheer strips and achieving complete privacy and darkness with opaque strips.

How do I choose the correct size?

Measure your window carefully. You can typically install the blind inside the recess for a flush look or outside the recess for full coverage. Refer to the specific measuring guide provided for precise instructions.

Are these blinds suitable for bathrooms?

While they offer privacy, the fabric is not specifically treated for high-moisture environments. For very steamy bathrooms, consider blinds made from moisture-resistant materials.

Can I shorten the length of the blind?

These blinds are typically custom-cut to size. Shortening them yourself can be complex and may void the warranty. It is best to order the precise length required.

How do I clean the fabric?

Dust regularly with a dry cloth. For marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the fabric.

What is included with the blind?

The package typically includes the blind, all necessary mounting brackets, screws, and a child safety clip for the pull cord.

What is the maximum width available?

These blinds are available in sizes up to 240cm wide.

Troubleshooting

Blind does not move smoothly

Check the pull cord for any knots or snags. Ensure the blind is evenly balanced and not catching on the window frame. Clean the mechanism if dirt is apparent.

Light is not fully blocked when in the blackout position

Ensure the alternating strips are correctly aligned. If gaps persist, slightly adjust the blind's position in the brackets or consider if the window frame is uneven.

Pull cord is tangled or difficult to use

Carefully untangle the cord. If the mechanism feels stiff, a light lubrication might be needed, or contact customer support if the issue persists.

Child safety clip is not secure

Ensure the clip is properly fastened to the wall or window frame and that the cord is threaded through it correctly. Check for any damage to the clip mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Installation is designed to be straightforward using face fix brackets that allow the blind to clip directly into place. Ensure you have a drill, measuring tape, and a pencil.

  1. Measure the window recess and the desired hanging position.
  2. Mark the bracket positions on the wall or window frame, ensuring they are level.
  3. Drill pilot holes and securely attach the brackets using the provided hardware.
  4. Assemble the blind mechanism and clip it into the installed brackets.
  5. Install the child safety clip to secure the pull cord at an appropriate height.

Compatibility:

These blinds are suitable for most standard window frames and can be mounted inside or outside the window recess. They are available in sizes up to 240cm wide and 210cm drop, accommodating a wide range of window dimensions.

Care:

To maintain the appearance and functionality of your blinds, regularly dust with a soft, dry cloth or a feather duster. For more stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as this may damage the fabric. Ensure the pull cord mechanism is kept clean and free from obstructions.
