Fitting the brackets
There are two types of brackets for vertical blinds, each of which offers a different method of installation:
-
Top-Fixing
Use the single hole in the top of the bracket to fix to the lintel (the ‘ceiling’ of the recess). -
Face-Fixing
Use two screws through the back plate to mount onto a facing surface (a wall or window frame). -
Note that the position of the outermost brackets should be at least 5cm away from the ends of the rail, with any other brackets evenly distributed across the width.
- If you’re using top-fix brackets, make sure that you mount them at least 7.5cm in front of either the window frame, or any protruding vents or handes, if there are any. This allows space for the louvres to turn open and closed.
Fitting the blind
- Top-Fixing
- Situate the front lip of the headrail into the front of the bracket.
- Lift the back of the headrail and push up firmly to secure the back of the rail into the bracket.
- Face-Fixing
- Situate the back lip of the headrail into the back hook of the bracket.
- Lift the front of the headrail so it’s level, then tighten the screw in the front of the bracket to secure the rail in place.
Hanging the louvres
Top Tip
Before hooking the louvres on the rail, use the control wand to turn the hooks
so that they all face side on. This makes it far quicker to hook the louvres
on and also ensures that the louvres will not clash when you first use the
blind.
-
Hook the louvres onto the rail.
-
Hook the control wand onto the eyelet at the end of the hooks.
If you chose a ‘split’ stack, the eyelet will be in the centre, on the end of the left-hand set of hooks.
-
Slide the weight into the pocket at the bottom of the louvre.
-
Clip the stabilising chain onto the weights, one chain will run along the back and the second will run along the front. Any excess clips can be cut away, just snip flush to the last clip attached to a weight.
Top Tip
You may find that the louvres have minor creases where they have been folded
inside the packaging, this is normal. Once the weights have been inserted and
the louvres allowed to hang, these creases will hang out after a short period
of time.
