Things to Consider Before you Start Fitting

Before you get to work on fitting your new blinds, make sure you consider these factors:
• Is the surface that you’re fitting the blind onto an appropriate material?
• Do you have children and/or pets? If so, remember that the drawstrings on your blinds could be dangerous and cause accidents.
• Are there any obstructions that could hinder the opening and closing of your blinds? Once you’ve taken these things into account, you can get started on putting your new blinds in place.
• You will need: Electric drill, Screwdriver, Pencil

Part 1: Fitting the brackets

Important Note - Day & Night blinds are supplied with universal brackets which provide options for both top and face fixtures. For a fitting inside your window's recess, the minimum recess depth varies it depends on the chosen headrail option.

Open Frame - minimum recess depth is 5cm

Covered Frame - minimum recess depth is 8.5cm

Pelmeted Frame - minimum recess depth is 7.5cm

Place the brackets where you would prefer your blind to hang, whether that’s inside or outside your window recess.
But keep in mind – if the width of your blind is longer than 150cm, you must add an extra bracket to the middle. If it is longer than 220cm, use two extra brackets with equal distances. Whichever one applies, your first and last brackets must always be positioned 5cm inside from both ends.

For Top Fixing (to the ceiling):

1-Position the brackets against the surface and make a mark out from the holes on the top of each bracket with your pencil.
2-Using your electric drill, make holes around 3cm deep with 6mm bid.
3-Secure the plugs into the holes.
4-Place the bracket on the plug and screw in using the screws provided.
Repeat the steps above for all of the brackets.

day-and-night-blind-bracket

For Face Fixing (to the wall or the window frame):

1 - Position the L-hook against the surface and make a mark with your pencil from the holes of the L-hook.
2 - Using your electric drill, make holes around 3cm deep with 6mm bid.
3 - Secure the plugs into the holes.
4 - Place the L-hook onto the plug and screw in using the screws provided.
5 - Repeat the steps above for the rest of the L-hooks.
6 - Place your bracket on the L-hooks in the same direction and turn it 90 degrees until it is fastened.

Part 2: Fitting the blind:

1 - Take your new blind and wind it up fully.
2 - Secure your blind’s headrail to both brackets, starting from back to front.
3 - Press up onto the headrail until you hear it click into place.
4 - Then, check your new blind is working as it should by pulling on its chain to fully extend it.

Part 3: Fitting the safety device

1 - Find the lowest point of your blind’s hanging chain.
2 - Hook the chain onto the safety device, ensuring it securely holds the chain in place.
3 - Place the screws on top of the holes, and drill gently until they are fully in place and the device is securely attached to the wall.

Measuring Guide

How to Measure for Day & Night Blinds

First, decide where you want the blind to hang, this can be either inside the recess or outside of the recess.

Now check there are no obstructions inside or outside the window recess where the blind will hang, for example, look out for handles, part tiling, or windows that open inwards. If you need advice, call us or even send us a photo info@design-jr.com

Inside Recess Measurement (Recess Fit)

depth-inside-recess

Check your window recess is deep enough for the blind to fit inside. If no obstructions measure directly from the window frame to the edge of the recess. Make sure the recess depth is at least the number given below, otherwise it will not be able to accommodate the operating mechanism of a chosen frame design.

Open Frame Blind – 8cm

Covered Frame Blind – 10cm

Pelmeted Frame Blind – 10cm

Please consider any obstructions inside the recess such as handle, ventilation, or anything else and measure directly from them to the edge of the recess. Make sure the recess depth is at least the number given below, otherwise it will not be able to accommodate the operating mechanism of a chosen frame design.

Open Frame Blind – 11cm

Covered Frame Blind – 13cm

Pelmeted Frame Blind – 13cm

Step 1: Measure the width of your recess at three locations. The top, middle and bottom. Record the smallest measurement.

Step 2: Measure the drop of your recess at three locations. The left, middle and right. Record the smallest measurement.

Don’t make any deductions, we’ll make it for you to ensure your blind fits perfectly just give us the smallest numbers you have recorded for the width and drop.

If you have a partly tiled window recess in your kitchen or bathroom, in this case, the recess width should be measured between tiles.

Outside Recess Measurement (Exact Fit)

Decide how far you want the blind to overlap the wall.

Step 1: Measure the outside of your window recess from one side to another from the point you want. We recommend that overlap should be at least 7cm from each side, in order to minimise as much of external light as possible.

Step 2: Measure the outside of your window recess from the top to the bottom, from the height at which you want the cassette system to sit. It should be positioned at least 7cm above the window, down to the point you want the bottom bar to stop.

Warning!

Young children can be strangled by the loops in pull chains that operate this product. To avoid strangulation and entanglement, keep chains out of reach of young children. Chains may become wrapped around a child’s neck. Move cots and furniture away from window covering chains. child-safety-first-blinds
