Wooden blinds make a great addition to any room and are very popular at the minute. They offer great warmth that you don't get with most fabrics because they are a natural product.
Fitting your blinds can be difficult if you haven't done it before. Fear not however, because we are here to help.
The very first thing to do is clear the window of any objects - you don't want to break anything! Then hold the wooden venetian up to the window. This is to make sure it fits! I have spent time putting up brackets only to find the blind wouldn't fit - what a waste of time.
Then make sure the fixing position is sound - you should really have done this when you measured so I'll assume your wall / window frame is solid enough to take the weight of the blind.
Mark the fixing positions for your brackets - this way you can make sure they are level. Make sure you have the right drill bit for where you are fitting.
Wooden venetin blind brackets are mostly a box type affair. There is a door that snaps into place once the blind is in place. They are very strong and offer various fixing positions.
Wooden venetain blinds come with a valance that cover the metal headrail and complete the look. This will either fix by velcro or plastic clips. The plastic clips offer a much more secure fixing, as the glue that holds the velcro can weaken over time. If you are lucky enough to have the clips, then you may need to fix them before you hang the blind.
The headrail should simply fit into the brackets at each end, and then snap the doors shut. Do this before you test the blind to make sure it doesn't fall out. The wooden valance will clip or stick into place depending on what you have been supplied with - and that's it!
Before you pack everything away, make sure the blind works okay. If it does, and all of the slats tilt then congratulations - you have finished. - 16459
