Elegant & Easy Maintenance Vinyl Window Blinds Customized to the room by Fasada
Vinyl window blinds are no longer limited only to offices. You can see them hanging proudly, adorning windows in homes with as much style as in offices. Not surprising, considering their excellent performance, both aesthetically and functionally. Vinyl window blinds present a chic window dressing. They also enable you to adjust the amount of natural light entering your room, at the same time maintaining your privacy. Vinyl window blinds come in a wide range of colours and textures to match with your home decor and furniture. You also have the option to mount them inside the window frame, outside the window frame or simply as a ceiling mount. In addition, they are virtually maintenance free.
Vinyl window blinds are very easy to install. You could put them up yourself without any professional guidance, saving on the installation costs. Here’s a quick brief to help you install vinyl window blinds:
- First, measure your windows from inside the window frame for purchasing blinds of the exact size. For the best fitting vinyl window blinds you must measure in 3 places in both width and height. Top, middle and bottom or left, middle and right. .
- Now, measure the window according to the way you would like to mount the blind. If you wish to mount the blind inside, the measurement must include the inside opening of the window. Outside mount measurement must include the outside measurement of the window casing. Ceiling mount measurement must include the exact size of vinyl window blind.
- 3. Raise the blind up to the desired mounting area and mark the edge of each side of the blind head rail with a pencil. Use a level when mounting the blind outside of the window frame.
- Hold the mounting brackets up against the wall and mark the positions with a pencil. Drill starter holes for the screws with a small drill bit so that screws install with less effort.
- Lock the mounting brackets into place with a drill and the screws provided by the blind manufacturer. While you may also use a screwdriver for this purpose, a drill makes the task effortless.
- Attach the provided plastic end caps to the head rail and bottom rail of the blind. This will help keep the vinyl window blinds from sliding out during normal use.
- Attach the head rail into the mounting brackets and fasten the tilt adjustment wand. Hook the long rod to the top of the vinyl blind.
- You may also fasten the hold-down brackets to the window sill.
- Open and close the blind, and tilt the louvers in both directions to ensure that the blind functions correctly. In order to tilt the louvers, you will need to rotate the blind wand to the left or right. In case you want to raise the blinds, pull the cord downward, to the right. For lowering them, pull the cord gently towards the left
