Questions, answered
A little light can seep in between the blind and the window frame. How much depends on your window and fittings. Ask us about the best fit for a darker room.
Selected fabrics in price bands 2 and 3 are fire retardant (FR). Contact us for the full list.
Yes. Pair a Brel motor with the Brel Home app, then connect it to Alexa, Google Home or Siri. Ask us about smart home options for Somfy motors.
First, decide where the blind will sit. Use a steel tape and measure in millimetres. Always give the width first, then the drop.
Inside the recess: measure the width at the top, middle and bottom, and use the smallest. Do the same for the drop on the left, centre and right. Give us the exact recess size. We make the deductions for you.
Outside the recess: check there is flat wall above the window for the brackets. Add at least 50mm on each side so the blind overlaps the window. More overlap means more privacy and less light.
Yes, but we need to do it for you. A motor changes how the blind is built, so we adapt the tube, fabric and bottom bar to suit. The changes depend on the motor you choose, 12V battery or 230V mains. Get in touch and we will talk you through it.
