Tips:

  • Blind 1 is always the left-most blind when looking at window
  • "Drive" on our Layout diagrams stands for "chain end"
  • Sizes of each single blind must be equal to the overall width
  • System autofill's the widths of Blinds to equal segments of the overall width, remove sizes and enter your specified sizes
  • Mention the word "Double" in the window location box e.g Lounge Door Double
  • Check you have the frame depth required for a Double Bracket 88mm x 150mm - a 90mm recess gives a flush fit
  • Standard Roll set up is Blockout Blind in top slot Front Roll and Sunscreen or Light Filter in lower slot Back Roll
  • Double Blinds can have both blinds Front Roll (to avoid handles) but Oval Bottom Rails are then recommended
  • Double Rollers look best inside a frame

Measuring Advice Based on Single Linked Blinds Layout 1:

There will be a gap where the blinds meet so make sure to measure to a point that’s the centre of a bar of window joinery.

  1. Using a metal tape measure first accurately measure the overall width and drop.
  2. Measure the first left width to the centre of the joinery that you have chosen to split to. This is the size of Blind 1.
  3. Minus the width of the first section off the overall width, this is the size of Blind 2. Double check with tape measure.
  4. The key is that the individual width sizes when added together are equal the overall size. Do not allow for anything.

Tips:

  • Linked Blinds don't have to be split directly in half, for example it is common to do 1/3 and 2/3 split
  • Follow the lines of window joinery when deciding where to split your blinds
  • Most Roller Blinds can be made up to 3000mm wide, Linked Blinds are usually for windows over 3000mm wide
  • Always measure the top tight inside width measurement as this is where brackets will be installed
