How will my own logo or photograph look?

We also ask that the rights of any image you submit to be printed must be your own or have the permission of the respective owner to use for such purposes.

How do I measure for my blind?

1. Measure the width of the recess (in mm) in three places using the metal measuring tape, and note the smallest measurement. Measure the length in the same way (taking three measurements), from the top of the recess to the sill. Keep in mind that the fabric will be approx 30mm narrower to allow for fittings.
2. For an EXACT blind size outside recess, measure the width of the window and allow an extra 5cm either side, to help block out light. Alternatively, if the window has wide mouldings, you can measure so that the blind will be flush with the edges.PLEASE CHECK YOUR MEASUREMENTS!! Printed blinds are made to measure for you and cannot be returned and resold.

We have made every effort to make the colours and finishes on screen as close as possible to the colours and finishes of the products you’ll use. However, we cannot guarantee an exact match in colours all monitor settings and screens vary.  A larger sample can be emailed for closer inspection if required.

My roller blind chain keeps breaking?

Many of our roller blinds are fitted with a breakaway chain connector, these may look like they are broken once they come apart from each other. However, you can simply clip the chain back together in order to restore the chain. The chains are built this way, to prevent the risk of strangulation, by breaking under pressure.

Are the blinds Child Safe?

Child safety is very important to us. Our roller blinds can be supplied with a chain option however they must have a breakaway device or alternatively the chain must be attached to the wall with a chain safety tidy AND be a minimum of 150cm from the floor.
