Blackout roller blinds are a great choice for any room in your home and especially useful in bedrooms and bathrooms where you want that added level of privacy and light block, the smooth operating sidewinder chain and the fresh, modern look of the clean lines forming this blind will provide a much-loved blind year-on-year.
While blackout roller blinds effectively dim the light in a room, it's important to note that during peak daylight hours, some light may still seep through due to small gaps at the sides of the blind. However, this light bleed is minimal, and the fabric of our blinds ensures that 100% of direct light is blocked out.
Our customers have found that pairing these blinds with a pair of curtains, from 247Curtains, hung in front of the window recess can further minimise any remaining light bleed. This combination not only enhances the blackout effect but also contributes to creating the ideal environment for a restful night's sleep.
Cleaning roller blinds is pretty simple, making sure the blind is fully down, start by giving the roller blind a quick dust over or use a vacuum with a soft attachment to remove any dust. Then with a damp clean cloth gently wipe over the blind and finally open the window to let the fresh air dry it off.
We no longer offer different types of finishes for the bottom of the blind, so as standard every blind will have a straight finish with a hidden bottom bar to keep the blind weighted.
You simply need to decide if the blind will sit inside the window (Recess) or outside the window frame (Exact). If you're still unsure, view our measuring guide.
Yes, we provide the necessary brackets, and you will need to find suitable screws/rawl plugs for your wall, generally 15-25mm self-tapping screws and good quality rawl plugs will be what you need.
With our Twist&Fit system, no screws or rawl plugs are needed. In fact, no tools at all are required to install the blind in 30 seconds.

• Free UK mainland standard delivery on orders over £179.
• All necessary fixing brackets for either inside or outside recess fitting (top, side or face fixing).
• Full fitting instructions.
• 5 year guarantee.
• Cord cleat/tidy included with all our blinds.
• Roller blinds are supplied as standard with a sidewinder control unit. The operation is through a white plastic beaded chain used to raise and lower.
• All blinds are mounted on a strong aluminium tube – 32mm in diameter. We introduce a 40mm tube for larger blinds where necessary.
• All brackets are painted white over metal – 45mm width x 65mm length.
• The bottom finish of the blind will be a straight finish. This will be finished with either a ‘stitched bottom pocket’ or a heat welded seam, with a plastic bottom lathe, dependant on the suitability of the fabric choice.
• Please note, blinds with a width greater than 180cm and a drop greater than 164cm MAY have a horizontal seam due to fabric width / design.
• Please note that the cloth width is 3.5-4cm narrower than the overall cassette width to allow for the control component. We always manufacture based on full blind width not fabric width.
• All items are cut to size and will be accurate with working tolerances and variances of +/-5mm.
• All our blinds are manufactured and supplied to be compliant with child safety regulations. As part of this compliance all control cords and chains will be made to a maximum of 1 metre. If you need to discuss this, please contact us.
•All roller blinds are produced with extra fabric added to the drop ordered. This is to ensure that there is enough material to conceal the metal tube when the blind is full down/closed. This is normal and standard practice throughout the industry.
WARNING
Young children can be strangled by loops in pull cords, chains, tapes and inner cords that operate the product.
To avoid strangulation and entanglement, keep cords out of the reach of young children.
Cords may become wrapped around a child’s neck. Move beds, cots, and furniture away from window covering cords.
Do not tie cords together. Make sure cords do not twist and create a loop.
