Roller Blinds Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the difference between Low Profile and High Profile Headbox?

The Low Profile Headbox features a slim design (typically 3-5cm depth) for a minimalist look, ideal for windows with limited installation space. The High Profile Headbox (6-10cm depth) offers more internal space, suitable for motorized systems or thicker roller tubes, and provides better light blocking at the top.

2. What’s the difference between Ready-Made and Cut-to-Size roller blinds?

• Ready-Made Blinds: Pre-cut to standard sizes (e.g., 60cm/90cm/120cm width) with pre-assembled packaging, ready for immediate installation.

• Cut-to-Size Blinds: Customized to your exact window dimensions (width & height), perfect for non-standard or uniquely sized windows.

3. How do I choose between Control Chains, Cords, and Lifting Tapes?

• Control Chains: Durable, easy to grip, and suitable for heavy blinds (up to 8kg).

• Cords: Flexible and discreet, ideal for lightweight blinds or narrow windows.

• Lifting Tapes: Wide, opaque tapes that prevent light leakage and add stability, recommended for large-format blinds.

4. Are cordless and motorized systems safer for homes with kids or pets?

Absolutely. Cordless systems (spring-loaded or push-pull design) eliminate loose cords, while motorized systems (remote or app-controlled) have no external control chains/cords. Both comply with child/pet safety standards, reducing entanglement risks.

5. Can I install roller blinds myself?

Yes! All ready-made and cut-to-size blinds come with detailed installation instructions and matching brackets. Basic tools (drill, screwdriver) are required, and the process typically takes 15-30 minutes per window.

6. How to clean and maintain roller blinds?

• Dust regularly with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner (low suction setting).

• For stains, wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent (avoid harsh chemicals).

• Avoid rolling wet blinds to prevent mold; air-dry completely if cleaned with water.

• Lubricate chain guides and brackets annually with silicone spray for smooth operation.

7. Do roller blinds block UV rays?

Most roller blind fabrics offer UV protection (50%-99% UV blockage, depending on the material). Blackout fabrics provide the highest UV protection, while light-filtering fabrics balance UV blocking with natural light.

8. Can motorized roller blinds be connected to smart home systems?

Yes! Our motorized roller blinds are compatible with popular smart home platforms (e.g., Alexa, Google Home, Siri) via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth modules. You can control them remotely, set schedules, or integrate with other smart devices.
