| Fitting your new made-to-measure blind is straightforward. It is recommended that you have the following tools when fitting your blinds. |
| |
| What you will need: |
| |
| 1. Power Drill |
| 2. Drill bit |
| 3. Phillips screwdriver (the one with the crossed head) |
| 4. Pencil |
| |
| Which drill bit? |
| |
| If you are drilling into concrete, brick or plaster, you should use a 5.5mm diameter masonry drill bit. This corresponds to the rawl plugs that we will send you. |
| If you are drilling into wood, steel or UPVC, you should use a 3mm diameter high-speed twist drill bit. |
| |
| Advice: |
| |
| 1. Gather your tools and unpack your blind, inside the box you will find all the fixture and fittings that you will need. Now download the fitting instructions from our web site before you attempt fitting the blind. |
| 2. Now, having decided where you want the blind to be positioned mark out the drill holes using the brackets supplied, in most cases you will only need to drill 2 holes at either end. Wider blinds will need more holes drilling though extra brackets will be supplied if this is required. |
| 3. Drill your holes and then screw the brackets into place. You’ll also be provided with rawl plugs, should you need to use them. |
| 4. Fit the blind into the brackets. |
