how it works

1. Cut the easyblackout fabric to the shape and size required for your window.  For the best degree of blackout, we suggest ensuring an overlap of approx. 2cm on each of the four edges.  This excess should 'fold around' and sit against the window recess or surround.

2. Apply the self-adhesive VELCRO® Brand Hook Fastener tape (included) around the window frame.  (Please note that this product is suitable for upvc frames and is not recommended for painted wooden frames.)

3. Press the easyblackout material against the VELCRO® Brand Hook Fastener tape on the window and hey presto, blackout!

4. Open and close daily as and when required.

We can cut your blind to size if you wish.  Please measure your window including all of the frame, ie from wall to wall.  Please add 4cm to the height and to the width measurements.  This gives the small overlap of 2cm on each of the four sides which is required for best blackout.  Please note that we will cut the size you tell us, we don't add the 4cm.

Please make sure  your measurements are accurate and take account of any protruding handles as we cannot refund cut to size blinds unless we have made a mistake.  Please contact us if you would like any help or advice with this.

The smallest size we cut is 29cm in either height or width.

We normally only send offcuts of a substantial size, but you can tell us in the comments box during checkout whether you wish to receive these or not.

Each kit includes sufficient fastener tape to make one blind of the maximum size.  If you would like to use any kit to make two or more smaller blinds, you may need additional fastener tape - you can find this on the Accessories page.

Easyblackout fabric can be cut with sharp scissors to the shape and size required.  It does not fray and does not need a hem.
