Some fabric restrictions will apply.  See individual fabrics for further details. 

Blinds over 2400 width are considered oversized and may have slight wavering to the fabric along the pockets. This is considered normal for sewn pocket blinds and not considered a manufacturing fault.  To avoid this we recommend ordering multiple smaller blinds.

Restriction on Mounting – Face or Architrave Mount only

We do not recommend Roman Blinds to go into a recess mount (inside the frame) and only to be mounted as a face fit or architrave fit.  There are many reasons for this and we make sure to comply with the Australian Soft Furnishing industry guidelines for Roman Blind manufacturing.

Any Roman blinds purchased with the intention of a recess mount will not be covered by our 5 year warranty.

The three main reasons are as follows;

1. Roman Blind fabric is known to stretch overtime and will eventually make the blind too long for the inside mount.  It is impossible for us to judge just how long the fabric will “grow” overtime (if at all) and we can not give a set length to deduct off the blind to compensate for this.
2. The cording is behind the blind and to operate you must push the canvas aside to get your hand behind the blind.  This will result in damaging the fabric by being crushed and soiled.  Operating the blind will eventually burn through the blockout coating due to having to drag the cords diagonally across the fabric to raise and lower the blind.
3. It is rare for a window to be perfectly square and often is out by a few mm’s.  This will give the appearance of the blind being crooked and the gap down the side of the blind will aggregate from a few mm’s at the top to a considerable gap to the bottom edge.

Projection of headboard

Standard 40mm’s

Optional 32mm, 70mm, 90mm 120mm

Blinds with a chain drive can not be mounted on a 32mm headboard 

Operation

Standard Cord & Cleat tie off

Heavy Duty Cord Lock (additional)

Chain Drive (additional)

Cord locks do have restrictions and are not recommended on blinds that are too small or too large. 

Small blinds - as the weight in the blind is not sufficient to release and lower the blind properly.  

Large blinds  - due to the amount of cords going into the locking device, loosing traction and will not holding into position. 

We only recommend on blinds between the sizes of 1200 -2400 width and will not guarantee on blinds outside these sizes.

Chain Drives are highly recommended for large blinds to make operating easier and to keep the pack level.

Placing on smaller width windows under 900mm's, is generally not recommend due to slowness of operation. 

Batten Spaces and Lining Up Blinds

Batten spaces are determined by the drop measurement of the blind and different drops will have different panel sizes.   

If you have different drops in the same room and would like to have the same panel sizes so the blinds line up visually, you are able to select this option in the Design & Order area.  We will then alter the base panels to suit.

Be aware that this may cause risk of fading, due to a smaller batten space becoming necessary at the base panel of the blind.

Fabrics

Select from our large range of Light Filtering & Blockout Fabrics. 

We only use Mildew Protected cloths. Please see individual fabrics for composition details. 

Cleaning

General dusting or vacuuming is suitable and should be done regularly.

For spot cleaning, wash with warm soapy water.

Do Not Scrub as you may damage the coating of the fabric.

Make sure to rinse clean with water.

Allow the blind to completely dry before operating.
