Hang a standard roller blind

When hanging a standard roller blind, it is important to measure the order width first. Remove 3mm from the ordering width and draw on the wall or frame where the mounting brackets are to be placed. Do you use plugs? Then drill holes in the wall for the supports. Mount the brackets on the wall or frame. A standard roller blind has a spring that can be pressed on one side, install it in the support first. Then the other side of the blind can be clamped into the support. Slide the cover caps onto the mounting brackets, so that you get a finished result. Now the roller blind is hanging and can be operated with the chain!

Customize your own roller blind

Are you going to make a custom roller blind yourself?? That is not difficult either. When shortening the rolling pin, subtract the thickness of the brackets from the total measured width. Mark these on the rolling pin and saw off the rest. Also saw off the bottom rail supplied to the same width. The bottom rail can then be used to measure and cut the same width of the fabric.

Succes!
