Really know their stuff. They spent time measuring and working out the best way to fit our blinds. Excellent that the same gentlemen who did the survey also fit the blinds. Martin and Richard arrived on time and worked non stop to fit our blinds.
Total professionals. I was kept informed at every stage. My Wife was delighted with the results. Definitely made the right choice with Conservatory Blinds Ltd. Very satisfied customers. Thanks to everyone involved. First class. Duette pleated blinds fitted covering all obtuse shapes. Estimates were more competitive than the so called top brand. The fitter was the surveyor, so they take responsibility for their own mistakes, if any.
None were made. The flush window finish was delightful. The work was beautifully done,with great attention to detail. Craig took enormous care at the planning stage to come up with the solution to a difficult window, which he certainly did.
It was wonderful to be able to deal with the same person from start to finish. No other company said they could find a solution.
We were very pleased. I could not be happier with every aspect of the service and product. Thank you. Was recommended by a neighbour, glad we took their advice. Couldn't ask for more, great service, brilliant blinds, what more can I say. The blinds were fitted in less than one day. The young man who fitted them was brilliant! I cannot praise him enough. Measuring inside and outside recess where PVCU units are butted together with no surrounding wall space.
If you are going for roller blinds you will also have to factor in the width of the roller mechanism and the brackets which will be 38 — 40mm wider than the actual material of the bind. This is not necessarily too important when mounting outside the recess but certainly comes into play when mounting inside a recess.
There are quite a few different types and styles of conservatory blind available and their fixing and installation can vary slightly depending on manufacturer but in essence the principles of installation are pretty similar when it comes to DIY kits. There are also numerous different types of conservatory ranging from the Lean-To type to Elizabethan and Victorian styles and each manufacturer may also have a slightly different take on each style but in essence a conservatory is a conservatory and they are all constructed from similar materials and erected in the same manner.
To these ends, most conservatory blinds are based on size and the area of glass they need to cover. In respect to this pretty much all styles and types of blind are universal and can be installed in pretty much any conservatory.
There are several types materials used in the construction of these sorts of blind, typical aluminium, wood and pvc. Due to the nature of a conservatory it is subject to vast changes in temperature and pvc and wood are not suitable. Pvc are often prone to melting whereas wooden blinds simply cannot cope with the rapid temperature changes.
In respect to this, aluminium is the way to go. Overall they are a great choice, they can provide good levels of privacy even when open and still allow a decent view outwards, they are able to create a great light balance, do not discolour due to sun exposure and offer reasonable levels of heat retention.
They are also very reasonably priced. A very common choice when it comes to conservatory blinds! They offer a great range of lighting options due to the numerous combinations of draw strings and controls that also provide great levels of privacy.
One drawback is that because of their material construction, they are quite prone to fading over time due to sun exposure but a plus here is that you can purchase replacement verticals very cheaply!
These are also quite a popular choice. They can be installed in several different ways, either one blind spanning a wall or several windows or one blind per pane section with the latter option giving you much more control over light. The one major drawback is, similar to the above, they will be prone to fading, but as you will probably only have them part way down or even retracted during summer months, they will fade unevenly and look quite unsightly. Additionally they also attract insects and if you have ever rolled up a fly in a roller blind you will be well aware of the mess they make!
These blinds tend to be quite expensive, especially when they are made to your specific measurements. However, it is possible for you to buy the "header" section that includes the controls so that you can make your own. Again as with the other choices there are drawbacks — When retracted they still have quite a presence over a pane of glass so vision is restricted somewhat and due to this they will be prone to fading over large areas.
If purchased with a blackout lining they will also be very heavy, putting a lot of strain on fixings and also the areas of the pvc frame they are screwed into. At DIY Doctor we are always on the lookout for great products and great ideas that make DIY and home improvement fun and enjoyable and when we came across the Perfect Fit blind we were very impressed.
This is possibly the best way we have seen of fitting blinds to plastic frames without the need for the traditional drilling or screwing of the frames themselves avoiding all the hassle of trying to confirm if drilling the frames will invalidate the affore mentioned guarantees etc….
Availabel in a great range of styles and colours, there is pretty much a Perfect Fit blind that will suit all situations and styles. Fitting the blind when it arrives is literally done in minutes.
Using an ordinary credit card as a measure you simply slide special brackets usually 4 into the existing window beads. Your new blind clips straight in and its done.
No drilling, no screwing, no sticking it really is that easy. With their Perfect Fit system there are no gaps down the side of the blinds. Strings do not get knotted and pleats do not get tangled together leaving the blind at a ridiculous angle to the window sill. As we said at the top, we have been asked many times for "The easiest way to fit window blinds to PVCu or double glazed frames".
This product is the answer. Fitting methods may vary depending on the manufacturer of your chosen blind, how your conservatory has been constructed, the type of blind you have chosen and what brackets are supplied with your kit but regardless of this the fitting principles are pretty similar across the board. The one major point to ensure when you are fitting conservatory blinds and any type of blind for that matter is to ensure that it is fixed straight so that the drop of the blind is totally level.
You will also need to decide whether you are going to face fix fixed to window frame or top fix fixed to lintel the brackets. This may be dictated to you by the type of blind you have or who manufactured it. Check the instructions included with your kit, they should suggest the best fixing method and also how to assemble your blind.
If you are top fixing to an inside recess or indeed fixing to an outside recess close to edge of the opening you may need to drill into a lintel. These are very tough to drill so ensure you have a decent drill and some sharp drill bits. A full breakdown of this process can be found in our fitting Venetian, Roman and Vertical blinds project. The main thing to avoid is the glass itself as if you can imagine.
Drilling into this would be a nightmare as it most cases it will crack requiring the entire pane to be replaced, an expensive mistake! Generally, the glass itself only extends into the frame just past the outside edge of the bead the black plastic strip running round the outside of the glass. The beading effectively holds the glass in the frame and allows for ease of removing panes if needed. Vane Width. Plain 96 Textured 5 Patterned Performance Feature. Blind Type.
