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.

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.

The recommended option when we have an obstacle is to install it on the ceiling, but if we don't have this possibility, see the types of installation below.
1. Ceiling installation: The blind must have enough space so that it does not touch the handle.

The translucent fabric is a lighter fabric and its main feature is that it provides more privacy than the screen, as it allows light to pass through without visibility both during the day and at night. It can be a good option if our windows are very large or if we are very exposed to the street.
We also have our technical fabrics, such as the screen, which have several light entrances, or opaque fabrics whose function is to block the passage of light.
The opaque fabrics are made to not allow light to pass through. In this way, we get privacy and darkness, which makes them the best choice if we don't have blinds in the bedroom or in a screening room.

One of the most important points of a roller blind is the diameter of the tube. At Cortinadecor we use a 43 mm aluminum tube, which is longer than a standard blind. It is also reinforced on the inside by aluminum nerves that guarantee the stability of the blind. This will prevent it from bending or creasing.
Our roller blinds can be operated in various ways. They can be operated manually with a chain or remotely with a remote control or from the wall with a push button. In the latter two cases, the blind would be motorised. Either of the motorised options is ideal for child safety as it does not include chains.

When we install a blind in our house and there are children, we must take into account the risks associated with the existence of cords, wires, chains and loose cables, as they can be dangerous for the youngest in the house.
At Cortinadecor we include in our blinds with chain, a child safety counterweight system that prevents this type of accident. This is a lower end for the chain which, instead of being loose, is fixed to the wall with screws.
This way, the chain remains fully taut and secured to the wall so that the child cannot can move or play with it, avoiding possible accidents.
