Roman Blind Tips
Due to the folds – softer fabrics work best with roman blinds
Roman blinds, particularly the larger ones can be heavy and so the fabric is likely to drop by a centimetre or two. For this reason, it’s best to outside mount your roman blinds so the fabric doesn’t rest on the bottom of the window sill.
• This blind fabric provides an ideal choice for any home or commercial building that requires blockout from the harsh Australian sun. • The blockout roman blind is 100% custom and made to your specific measurements. All our custom blinds are sourced from Brisbane and shipped nationally within 10 working days. • Fantastic 3 Year warranty with option to extend coverage. • Blinds greater than 2100mm wide will be made on a 45mm tube. Blinds greater than 3.25 sqm will be supplied with gears. • Smaller blinds can be made on a 45mm tube and supplied with geared control on request. • Any roman blind made that is under 500mm wide, over 2700mm wide or over 2400mm in height, are not warranted against bagging of the fabric, a bow in the tube causing veeing, tracking and fraying. • It’s important to note that even with a blockout fabric, it’s hard to completely block light from coming through your windows. Light gaps at the edges of your blinds can be reduced or eliminated with either certain mounting options or side channels. You may want to consider face mounted as opposed to recess fitted blinds if this is important to you. • We have a range of composition options to suit virtually any room including single roller blinds, duo roller blinds, linked roller blinds and motorised roller blinds. A range of optional pelmets will compliment any application. • Roman Blinds can be used in conjunction with a cassette pelmet and side channels to provide a high level light blockout solution. This is ideal for shift workers and home theatre situations
Installed blinds should be regularly dusted or vacuumed as needed. Wipe with damp cloth using soapy warm water. Dry immediately after. Where commercial spot cleaners are used, first test an inconspicuous area to ensure suitability of cleaning agent.
ReadyBlinds products are supplied with your childs safety in mind. When you order your blinds they will come with safety devices for you to install to make sure your blinds are as safe as possible for when children are around.
Some tips:
Do not put children’s cots, beds, highchairs or playpens near a window where children can reach the blind or curtain cords.
Do not place sofas, chairs, tables, shelves or bookcases near windows with corded blinds or curtains.
Check all window furnishings and place all cords out of children’s reach and be wary of leaving children alone in these rooms.

PELMET WITHOUT FABRIC PELMET WITH FABRIC INSERT
BACKWARD ROLL
This is the most popular way of having the roller blinds hang.
Firstly, it keeps the blind fabric as close to the window when recess mounted and secondly, it also keeps the blind fabric is as close to the wall when using a face mount.
FORWARD ROLL
This is the best option for those who dont want to see the roll when looking at it from inside the room.
If you prefer a front roll blind, be awayre when you choose to face mount the blinds, it will have a larger gap as the roller blind will not be as close to the wall like a backward rolling blind.
Classic Roman Blinds – In a classic design, the fabric of the blind is gathered at intervals to create a folded detail with the batten running through the back of the blind.
Plantation Roman Blinds – In a plantation design, the batten replaces the folded detail which runs through both the front and back of the blind.

Fixture choices for bottom of vertical blinds
ReadyBlinds vertical blinds can either be fixed at the bottom with traditional link chain or use the now more more popular chainless weights system.
WEIGHTS & CHAINS SETUP CHAINLESS SETUP
The weight and chain system has an advantage that in wndows (or doors) where air flows through the vertical blinds will all be attached together and swing together in the wind and settle in unison – whereas the unchain systemmay have the blinds moving around in different directions. There is no wrong way – it comes down to personal choice and look.
