Roller blind fitted level and secure with smooth operation. Whether it's inside or outside your window recess, it'll hang straight and roll up cleanly every time.
### The Simple, Clean Window Covering
Roller blinds are brilliant - **clean lines, easy operation, affordable**. But only if they're fitted properly. Wonky brackets and they bind, hang crooked, or worse - fall off.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** For inside-recess fitting, the blind needs to be about 5mm narrower than the recess to roll smoothly. Too tight and it scrapes, too loose and you get light gaps. Check your measurements before ordering.

### Why Professional Fitting Matters

**Common fitting challenges:** - Wonky window recesses (especially old houses) - Plasterboard walls needing proper fixings - Getting both brackets exactly level - Ensuring chain mechanism works smoothly

Good to Know
> 🏠 **Multiple windows?** Kitchen, bathroom, bedroom all need blinds? Get them all measured, ordered, and we'll fit them together. Much more cost-effective than separate visits. **Child safety:** If you've got kids, make sure your blind has the chain break-away connector. It's a simple safety device that could prevent accidents. I'll fit it properly if it's supplied with your blind. **Light gaps?** With inside-recess fitting, there's always small gaps at the sides (that's how the blind rolls). For total blackout, you need outside-recess fitting or purpose-designed blackout cassettes. **Exeter's wonky windows?** Old houses rarely have square recesses. I fit the brackets level to each other (not to the wonky frame), so the blind hangs straight even if your window doesn't.
Frequently Asked Questions about Roller blind installation in Crediton
Inside or outside the window recess?
Either works - it's your choice. Inside the recess looks neater and lets you use the window sill. Outside the recess covers the whole window including gaps. We'll help you decide what works best for your window.
Do I need to buy the blind first?
Yes - you need to measure and order the blind to fit your window. Once you've got it, I'll come and fit it properly. Happy to advise on measuring if you're unsure.
What if my window isn't square?
Most windows aren't perfectly square, especially in older Crediton houses. I fit to the recess or wall as it is, and make sure the blind hangs straight and operates smoothly despite wonky frames.
How long does fitting one blind take?
Usually 20-30 minutes per blind. If you've got multiple windows to do, we can fit them all in one visit - much more economical than separate trips.
What about fitting the chain safety break?
If your blind came with one (especially important if you've got young kids), I'll fit it properly. The chain should break away if weight is applied - it's a safety feature worth using.
