Vertical Blinds

Being prepared makes it easy to install Vertical Blinds.

Gather Tools – In order to successfully install vertical blinds, you’re going to have to have the right tools. At minimum, you are going to need a level, a drill, a screwdriver, a tape measure and a pencil. Depending on the blinds you have purchased, additional tools may be necessary; make sure to refer to the instructions that came with them to find out exactly what you’ll need.

Gather Materials – Sometimes, vertical blinds come with everything that you’ll need in order to install them; other times, you have to collect various things on your own. You’re going to need clips, ends, valance corners, the head rail, vanes, clips and brackets and screws. Make certain that you have everything you need easily accessible to ensure you’re not running around from room to the other trying to find what you need during the installation process.

Decide Where to Put Brackets – Take the head rail and decide where you want to place the brackets. They need to be evenly spaced and approximately 8 centimetres from the ends. Use an online resource to figure out how many brackets you will need.

Mark the Position of the Head Rail – Locate the exact place on the wall where you want the head rail to be. Since you’ve marked the positions of the brackets on it, you should also mark their position on the wall.

Screw Brackets into Wall – Use a drill bit to screw the brackets into the wall. Use nuts and bolts to attach the mounting clips to the brackets. The centre clip should be 4 centimetres from the wall.

Snap On Head Rail – Without everything securely in place, snap the head rail on. To do that, just slide it onto the mounting brackets.

Hang Blinds – Finally, you just need to snap each blind onto the inside of the head rail. This process should go quickly.

That’s all there is to it: You have successfully installed Vertical blinds! Now you get to enjoy them.

One of the reasons people have trouble installing Vertical Blinds or Roller Blinds is because they often rush the job. This makes it easy to make mistakes. Remember, set aside a decent amount of time and take it slow – the results will be phenomenal.
