2. Brackets next
Brackets; essential for any great sheer roller blind install. Two brackets per blind; the one with the ‘pokey-outey’ tab matches up with the control end of the sheer roller blind. The other bracket, the one with the groove and hole in it is for the ‘idle’ or ‘pin end’ of the blind. Think about how deep within the reveal you want the sheer roller blind to sit. You want it placed so the fabric ‘falls’ within the reveal ideally and misses any window handles or latches etc. Hold the bracket in place while you mark the screw locations. Two screws per bracket up through the top of the bracket is the way to go. The measuring tape helps you set the brackets at the same depth within each window reveal, for superior blind placement consistency. Pre drill holes if you like then insert and tighten screws so those brackets are good and secure
3. Fit blind
Remove the sheer roller blind from its packaging. Or not? Read ‘TIP 1’ to decide how one is best to move past this predicament
TIP 1: For light coloured fabrics or those of us with overly oily fingers you may be best to wear surgical gloves or keep the plastic packaging on (but with the ends cut off) so you can install your sheer roller blinds safe from smudges
When installation is complete, remove the packaging by cutting or ripping the plastic off with care. Either way forward leave the band that keeps the blind rolled up, on, for now
The control end of the blind gets put on its bracket first. Do in such a way that the control chain is hanging freely and the blind is at an orientation to ensure the control chain guard is level front to back. If once you’ve inserted the sheer roller blind’s control end, the guard isn’t level front to back, take the blind off and try again. It’s easy to get this bit wrong initially so don’t be so hard on yourself. Once the control end is on properly shuffle your grip so you can insert the idle end (other end) of the blind while still supporting the blind and keeping it pushed on to the control end bracket
Raise the idle or ‘pin end’ of the sheer roller blind so the retractable pin finds the idle end bracket groove. You may need to retract the pin a bit, by turning the notched wheel, to get the pin into the bracket groove. Once in push the blind up until you hear the ‘click’ that says ‘I’m securely where I should be, thanks’. As soon as you have safely installed the sheer roller blind give yourself a pat on the back, remove the securing band from the blind, and set the blind where you want it
