It is important to note that the width of the blind corresponds to the measurement from the outside of one support to the outside measurement of the other support, and there will always be 5 cm less fabric. For example, if we order a 100 cm blind, the fabric size will be 95 cm.
When it comes to separating our blind from the window, it all depends on the type of support and whether it is fixed to the ceiling or the wall.
1. If we choosethe short wall bracket andstuck drop, it will have a spacing of about 2 cm.
2. If we choosewall bracket short and cascading drop, it will have a spacing of about 7 cm.
3. If we choose the long wall bracket and hanging down, it will have a spacing of about 3.3 cm.
4. If we choose the long wall bracket and cascade drop, it will have a spacing of about 11 cm.
If the blind is installed on the ceiling, it can be spaced as needed so that it does not hit any obstacles when it is lowered.
The screen fabric allows you to regulate the amount of light that passes through the fabric and allows you to preserve the view depending on the degree of aperture.
There are several degrees of aperture:
· 1% opening
Minimum transparency and low visibility to the outside.
· 3% opening
Transparency medium and low visibility to the outside.
· Opening 5%
Medium transparency and good visibility to the outside.
Your order will include:
- Made-to-measure product in the chosen color.
- Supports, screws and mechanisms.
And it's ready for easy installation.
With screen fabric, the less light there is on the outside, the more visibility there is on the inside, depending on the degree of openness you choose.
This means that during the day you will not be seen from the outside, but during the evening and night there is a certain degree of visibility to the inside.
· Opening 1%: Low visibility to the interior.
· 3% opening: Low visibility to the interior.
· 5% opening: Good visibility for the interior.
· Opening 10%: Great visibility to the interior.
Roller blinds are made from synthetic fabrics that repel dust, especially screen and opaque fabrics. That's why we don't need to put them in the washing machine to clean them. Firstly, lower the blind until it is fully unfolded, there is no need to remove it from its supports. If it has a stain, a towel or a simple damp cloth and soap will be enough to clean it. Likewise, dust can also be removed using a vacuum or pressurized air, without scrubbing. Of course, we must not use solvents or abrasive substances that could damage the fabric coating, such as ammonia or bleach. Care should be taken with photographic blinds, as they are more delicate.

2. Wall mounting: Two brackets are available, one short and one long. The option that most separates the blind from the window will be thelong support and a cascade drop, the fabric will be separated by 11 cm. If the handle protrudes more than this distance, we recommend placing the blind on the ceiling and giving it enough space so that when you lower the blind it does not hit the handle.
Yes, but in this case, plugs and screws suitable for plasterboard must be used. These plugs and screws can be purchased at any hardware store.
