How do Roller Blinds Work?
Roller blinds operate by rolling a fabric sheet around a cylindrical tube which is usually mounted at the top of a window. They are controlled by a sidewinder chain, spring mechanism or motor. When the chain or cord is pulled, the blind unrolls to cover the window. By pulling the chain the other way, the blind is opened. Some roller blinds include features like light-filtering or blackout fabrics, providing versatility in light and privacy control.
How to Clean Roller Blinds
Cleaning roller blinds should be done regularly to keep them looking fresh and new. Generally, they should be regularly dusted with a duster or a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment. However, if you find they need a better clean, you may be able to use a damp cloth and a mild detergent to wipe down the blinds, although this will be fabric dependant. For more information, check out our guide on How to Clean Roller Blinds.
How to Fit Roller Blinds
Fitting roller blinds is pretty straightforward. First, make sure you have your brackets, screws, and tools. With everything ready, screw the brackets into place either within the window recess or above the window. Once they’re securely fastened, slide the roller blind into the brackets, ensuring it is level. For a full step-by-step, follow our roller blinds fitting instructions.
How to Measure for Roller Blinds
Measuring for roller blinds is an important first step before ordering your new blinds. How you measure will depend on whether you’re fitting inside or outside the window recess. You can follow our roller blinds measuring guide to ensure a perfect fit.
How to Remove Roller Blinds
Roller blinds can be removed from your windows fairly easily. Simply remove the blind roll from the brackets and unscrew them from the wall. You can then roll up the blinds and store them away until they are needed again.
How to Remove Stains from Roller Blinds
If you find your blinds have gotten marked or stained, it may be possible to clean with the right method. For standard fabric roller blinds, we recommend using a professional dry cleaner, although if the fabric allows you may be able to spot clean them yourself. At Unbeatable Blinds, we know that accidents can happen which is why we offer a range of waterproof roller blinds that can be simply wiped down, ensuring they won’t stain.
For detailed instructions on how to remove stains from roller blinds, see our guide on How to Clean Roller Blinds.
Can you Paint Roller Blinds?
Yes, you can paint roller blinds, but it requires some preparation and the right materials. Fabric roller blinds can be painted using fabric paint or acrylic paint mixed with a fabric medium to ensure flexibility and prevent cracking. The blinds should be cleaned thoroughly before painting, and it’s advisable to apply a primer for better paint adhesion. It’s also important to use thin, even coats and allow sufficient drying time between layers.
At Unbeatable Blinds, we offer a wide variety of different coloured roller blinds so you should be able to find the colour you want without having to paint them. Choose from simplistic cream roller blinds, bold yellow roller blinds, bright pink roller blinds and more. There’s no need to DIY when you have us on your side!
Do Roller Blinds Keep Heat in?
Roller blinds can help keep heat in, especially when made from thermal or insulating materials. These blinds create an additional layer between the window and the room, reducing heat loss through the glass. The effectiveness depends on the material and whether the blind is fitted closely to the window frame, minimising gaps where warm air can escape.
While not as efficient as double-glazing, thermal blinds, or dedicated thermal curtains, roller blinds can still contribute to energy savings and increased comfort by retaining heat during colder months. See more in our guide on Do Roller Blinds Keep Heat In?
Do Roller Blinds Block Out Light?
Yes, roller blinds can block out light, particularly when made from blackout fabrics. These blackout blinds are designed to prevent light from passing through the material, making them ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, or any space requiring darkness during the day. To maximise their effectiveness, it’s essential to install the blackout roller blinds correctly, ensuring minimal gaps around the edges.
Can Roller Blinds be Cut to Size?
Yes, roller blinds can technically be cut to size, but with our made to measure roller blinds, there’s no need to worry about trimming them yourself. Each blind is custom-made to your exact measurements, ensuring a perfect fit every time. For more details, check out our handy roller blinds fitting guide or see our guide on How to Cut Roller Blinds.
Are Roller Blinds Better than Roman Blinds?
It all depends on the look you're after. Roller blinds offer a sleek, space-saving finish and can include practical features like moisture resistance, waterproofing, and fire retardancy. Roman blinds, on the other hand, deliver a luxurious, textured style and can be lined with thermal or blackout backing for extra comfort. Learn more in our Roman vs. Roller Blinds Guide.
