    Thanks Justin. Without this I wouldn’t have had the confidence to cut my blinds and fit them. Keep up the good work!

    Thanks Justin, I needed a refresher on how to remove the blinds from washing, your video clearly showed the clip-on brackets, got it. It's been years since they were up. Cheers George

    Thanks for the video. Having just bought my first day & night blind, too big for the window, cannot be cut to size it stated. Well I followed the instructions on this video thoroughly, 3 hours later (I am a 40Yr old female and not great with DIY) with perseverance and some swearing, I am so proud I did it!! It looks amazing!

    Ok great video. What manufacturer as the ones I just bought didn't have the rear box and yours looks much better?

  • @IndieChic
    @IndieChic Před rokem

    Can they be fitted to the front of the window to avoid cutting it down ? I've found one of these on marketplace but it's a few cm too long to fit it inside the window like you have.
    Can it go so it would drop down to the front of the sill?

  • @mml2454
    @mml2454 Před rokem +1

    Looks great. How did the blind get put back into the top to roll back on itself...? And would help to see the bracket fixings along the top. Maybe next time? Thanks

    • @JBTV
      @JBTV  Před rokem

      I didn't remove the blind from the back, only undid the roller part and rolled it out, cut it, then rolled it back up and reconnected the roller section 👍

    This is such a brilliant tutorial. I just bought 8 blinds D&N blinds from Dunelm, I was so disheartened when I read you can't cut to size. This video has given me hope I am going to practice with the smaller and cheapest blind. Do you have any other tips for me ?

  • @sallybell1980

    I fitted one of there yesterday but the horizontal lines don’t match up. One end is out of line. Any suggestions?

      @darren25061965 Před 8 měsíci +1

      I had a similar problem a few years ago with a standard roller blind, meaning the end of the roll tapered. It was because the top of the window opening wasnt level. A couple of washers as spacers at one end solved the problem.

      That should be straight forward. Feel free to email me any issues

    Does it matter if the blind is longer than it’s meant to be?

  • @slugie7934
    @slugie7934 Před rokem

    Hi Justin great video 😊
    Do you have the outside of the roller towards the window or towards the room?
    Also when you get to the bottom i would like mine to be the same as yours in night time and is there a way to adjust it the blind is rolled to the bottom and its day time or does it just depend on the drop of the window
    Thank you

    • @JBTV
      @JBTV  Před rokem +2

      Hey, thanks a lot. I have mine back to front to maximise window sill space, but unlike standard blinds it doesn't look much different which way you have it. Yes it does depend on the drop of the window, but the blind length doesn't change massively when adjusting from night to day. Hope this helps. JB

    Hi there, I wonder if you could help me?. I bought the exact same blind from Dunelm in Grey, followed everything in your video to help me get it right. All went great - THANK YOU, but an issue of the blind going all the way to the top without the blind starting to bunch up is a problem. I would send you a video of what's happening if you like so you could help better?..

      How ever far out you want the blind.... you'll need to take into consideration handles etc
