Add to SamplesAlready In Samples
Add to Samples

From 

£3.00

758

These breakaway connectors are to replace the existing non-breakaway connectors on roller blind side winder chains and vertical tilt chains. They will break away under pressure, although we would advise that you fit a chain tidy in conjunction with this. If you would like more information on child safety around blinds, please visit our ‘make it safe’ page. Here we have advice and tips, including a BBSA video on how to help keep your home safe.

Roller Blinds – On roller blinds the fabric will be 35mm (3.5cm) narrower than the overall width of the exact blind size.  This is because the overall width of the blind includes the end sets and the brackets.  Roller blinds larger than 180cm (width) or 180cm (drop) may require a join or the fabric turning.  If you would like this confirmed, please contact us.  For more info visit our fabric info page.

Vertical Blinds – All our vertical blinds come with a child safe wand operated white head rail as standard.

Digitally Printed Blinds – When ordering digitally printed blinds, please take into account the shape of your images against the shape of your blind, for example select a portrait image for a portrait blind. If your using one of our images, the original image will be displayed under the main product image.

Fabric / Samples – Due to varying computer monitors you are advised to request a sample.  If your blind has a pattern on it we may have blown up the image so you can see the pattern more clearly.  Please note – sample request for digitally printed blinds will be a sample of the plain fabric and not the digital print.  For more info visit our fabric info page.

Child Safety – All our vertical blinds come with a child safe wand operated white head rail as standard.  All other blinds come with free child safety devices that comply with new child safety laws.  For more info visit our child safety page.

 

Delivery – Delivery is currently 2/3 weeks due to a high volume of orders.  Delivery is normally 5-10 working days from date of order. 

Delivery is £9.95 as standard to UK mainland. For more info visit our delivery page.

Fabric Type

When ordering your digitally printed roller blind, there are two fabric options, standard white and blackout / PVC.  

We do recommend the PVC fabric, as when the light shines through the standard fabric, the picture may become lighter.  If you are  unsure, please just ask.

Contact Us

Standard Fabric

Digitally Printed Roller Blinds

Standard fabrics allow some light through, this may make the image lighter.

Blackout / PVC

PVC fabrics are naturally waterproof and blackout making them perfect for bathrooms and bedrooms. We do recommend the PVC fabric as the image is sharper and retains the colour better.

Upload Image

Your image should be of as high resolution as possible, images taken on a low-resolution mobile phone are often unsuitable. Allow 1mb – 2mb per square meter (300 pixels) for a good quality print, the greater the Megabytes, the better the finish.
Think about the size and shape of the blind that it needs to fit i.e. select a portrait image for a portrait blind.

Slat Size

When choosing Wooden Venetian Slat Size consider the following points.

Larger slat sizes require less slats and so the stack when raised fully open is shorter.  Being a larger slat, they also allow more light through when tilted.

Smaller slats can be useful for areas with small sill depth so that they remain on the sill.  Being a smaller slat they allow slightly less light through and require more slats so a larger stack when fully open.

Rechargeable Battery Motors

Enhance your window blind experience and have your blind motorised, by adding a rechargeable battery motor.

Our electric motors allow you to operate single or multiple blinds a number of ways for the utmost convenience. They can be raised or lowered directly with a remote, at the touch of a button. On average use the blind will require recharging approximately every 6 months. Simply plug in the charger to the motor which is located on the top of the blind. It is as simple as charging a mobile phone.

An additional hub and timer can be purchased, that allows mobile phone or tablet control using an app or voice control through Google Home, Siri or Amazon Alexa devices. Please contact us for more info on these. Controls may vary depending on blind size and quantity.

How To Measure Your Window For Window Blinds

If you are unsure or need any help, please feel free to contact us.

This video and measuring instructions apply for all types of window coverings.

  • For accurate measurements always use a metal tape measure.
  • All Measurement need to be entered in Millimetres ONLY.
  • Please check you have the correct measurements before placing your order.  All of our window blinds are made to order and to your exact specification, we therefore do not accept changes, cancellations or liability for incorrect measurements given.
  • Choose whether you want you’re blind to fit inside the recess of your window or hang outside the recess overlapping the window. If you need help deciding which option is the best, visit the choosing your made to measure blinds page for more advice.

PLEASE NOTE: On roller blinds the fabric will be 35mm (3.5cm) narrower than the overall width of the exact blind size. This is because the overall width of the blind includes the end sets and the brackets.

Inside Recess

Choose this option when fitting your blind inside the window recess. Measure the exact width wall to wall and the exact drop ceiling to sill. We will make your blind slightly smaller than the sizes you give, so that it fits perfectly inside the recess. It is important that you do not make any deductions yourself. Note Down the smallest measurement.

 

Exact Blind Size

Choose this option when fitting your blind to the outside of the window recess or you want the blind making to the exact sizes without any deductions being made. Please note that this will include the mechanism and brackets. Note down the smallest measurement.
