Installing
a blind or other shutter on roof windows is not difficult. You
can successfully do it yourself. All
you need to do is choose the blind or awning to the window.
Blinds
in roof windows
It's
best to buy a cover from the window manufacturer. The
selection of a roof window curtain will be facilitated by the recommendations
of its manufacturer. He
often recommends a specific cover to a specific type of window. To
adjust the blind or awning it is not necessary even to provide its dimensions,
all you need to do is check the nameplate number or the type of window. When
buying window covers from the window manufacturer, we guarantee that together
with blinds or awnings we will get accessories to facilitate assembly, such as
mounting hooks and a set of necessary tools. Additional
support will be attached to the product manual, facilitating the installation
of the roller blind or awning.
Non-invasive
installation of the inner blind
Self-assembly
will be facilitated by mounting catches mounted on the windows. It
is not necessary to push the folded blind. It
should not be broken down, that is, the buckle should be removed to prevent it
from sliding apart, as this may make it difficult to properly install the
blind. If
a clicking occurs during pressing, we can be sure that the cassette is well seated
in the catches.Then, in the bottom corners of the window frame, hooks must be
mounted, which are included in the assembly set. The
next stage is the assembly of guides, which we press into the catches. A
frame is created to move the blind. We
screw the guides through the pre-prepared holes and connect the strings. After
they are carefully extended and tensioned along the guides, we fix them in the
hooks at the bottom of the guide. After
removing the buckle securing the blind against premature extension, we can
check whether it has been correctly mounted - just move it from top to bottom -
if its guidance nothing inhibits the assembly can be considered correct.
Non-invasive
installation of the awning
The
awning blind is an external shutter, but thanks to the windows, which are well
prepared for installation, we can easily install it from the room. The
cassette with folded awning is placed under the upper frame of the door frame. In
the window frame there are pre-drilled holes in which the awning brackets
should be screwed in. Then
the bottom outer frame should be inside the room, to achieve this we turn the
window open. We
unscrew the screws installed in the factory at the bottom outer frame and in
their place we assemble the awning hooks. We
use the same screw that we removed earlier. It
is only now that we can develop the awning, the holes placed in its lower part
are hooked on previously mounted hooks. To
check if the awning installation has been properly completed, we close the
window - the awning should then smoothly expand.
