How to Install an Internal Chain Roller Blind
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. Measure and Mark | Measure the width of the window frame and mark the positions for the brackets on either side of the window. Ensure the marks are level. |
| 2. Drill Holes | Using a drill, create holes at the marked positions for the brackets. Use appropriate drill bits for the wall type (e.g., masonry bit for brick walls). |
| 3. Install Brackets | Secure the brackets to the wall using screws and wall anchors (if necessary). Ensure the brackets are level and firmly attached. |
| 4. Attach Roller Blind | Insert the roller blind into the brackets. Ensure the chain mechanism is on the desired side. |
| 5. Secure Chain Guide | Install the chain guide to keep the chain taut and safe. Attach it to the wall at a suitable height using screws. |
| 6. Test Operation | Pull the chain to roll the blind up and down. Make sure it operates smoothly and evenly. Adjust the brackets if necessary. |
| 7. Adjust Limits | Some roller blinds have adjustable limit settings. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to set the upper and lower limits. |
| 8. Finishing Touches | Ensure all components are securely fastened and the blind is level. Clean up any debris from drilling. |
