Ordering roller blinds on our UNIETC website is very simple. We only need to measure the height and width, the type and color of the roller blind fabric, and specify some details, such as the rolling direction of the roller blind. All need your careful consideration.
Together with the choice of fabric type (translucent, sun-proof roller blind, blackout roller blind, etc.) and color for each roller blind, we need to specify when the roller blind is placed on which side of the chain, it is on the right Still on the left, and whether we want it to be metal or plastic.
By default, the chain is plastic, so the choice of metal chain depends on your style and options. It is also more expensive. The mechanism of the roller blind matches the fabric and can be white, black, gray or beige. The mounting mechanism or support is common for ceiling and wall mounting or side mounting.
Winding direction: what is it?
The rolling direction of the roller blind is the way the fabric is positioned in the tube and determines how it will fall into the facing window. If you choose the normal winding direction, the roller blind will fall behind the tube and will therefore be closer to the window.
In the opposite winding direction, also known as the “cascade effect”, the fabric falls in front of the tube, preventing it from being seen by people, so that the rest is further away from the window. This means that more external light can enter through the side because it is not too close to the glass. The interval will depend on the installation mechanism, about 7 cm.
The usual thing is that the rolling direction is normal, which is why every roller blind is shipped by default. In some cases, it is recommended to choose the direction of the cascaded winding, we will learn about the specific conditions:
Why choose the opposite winding direction?
The main reason for choosing the opposite direction of winding is aesthetics, because we just like to look better, and we can’t see the tube. This is recommended if you want to overcome obstacles in the path of the blind, such as window handles.
In addition, this is also recommended in the case of ordering photographic roller blinds, because we will always ensure that the images are better appreciated and look more “holistic” and tidy.
How to clean the roller blind ?
The maintenance of roller blinds is very simple because they are very dust-resistant fabrics. Especially the silk mesh fabric has very good properties: it is flame-retardant, water-resistant and helps reduce heat sensation.
For certain stains, we recommend using a cloth dampened with mild soap and water to wipe dry.
