Thanks for the video. Having just bought my first day & night blind, too big for the window, cannot be cut to size it stated. Well I followed the instructions on this video thoroughly, 3 hours later (I am a 40Yr old female and not great with DIY) with perseverance and some swearing, I am so proud I did it!! It looks amazing!
Thanks Justin, I needed a refresher on how to remove the blinds from washing, your video clearly showed the clip-on brackets, got it. It's been years since they were up. Cheers George
Looks great. How did the blind get put back into the top to roll back on itself...? And would help to see the bracket fixings along the top. Maybe next time? Thanks
I didn't remove the blind from the back, only undid the roller part and rolled it out, cut it, then rolled it back up and reconnected the roller section 👍
This is such a brilliant tutorial. I just bought 8 blinds D&N blinds from Dunelm, I was so disheartened when I read you can't cut to size. This video has given me hope I am going to practice with the smaller and cheapest blind. Do you have any other tips for me ?
I was in exactly the same situation. I bought the exact same blind from Dunelm assuming it could be cut to size only to read the instructions and find there was no mention of how to cut to size. I was about to pack it up and take it back before I came across this excellent video. So I'm going to give it a go. Thanks JB! 👌
Thank you! How do you remove the blind from these clips please? I've given mine a wiggle, but afraid of breaking something. Wondering if I should get a bladed screwdriver to lever out the plastic tab which retracted when I clipped them on?
I had a similar problem a few years ago with a standard roller blind, meaning the end of the roll tapered. It was because the top of the window opening wasnt level. A couple of washers as spacers at one end solved the problem.
Hi I'm having a real problem trying to get the blind installed. I get the front bit on but then can get it to clip into the back? The way you've shown it, it looks so simple. Yours just clipped in easily
Hello mate could you tell me, they all fit upwards, but you said you drilled into plasterboard, in my house ive got steel lintels. Bugger to drill into. Any tips on that?
Yes, it's fixed upward. My walls are dry lined, but a lintel is tough. A purpose hammer drill (not a combi drill) should eat through it with a good bit in it.
Hi there, I wonder if you could help me?. I bought the exact same blind from Dunelm in Grey, followed everything in your video to help me get it right. All went great - THANK YOU, but an issue of the blind going all the way to the top without the blind starting to bunch up is a problem. I would send you a video of what's happening if you like so you could help better?..
Can they be fitted to the front of the window to avoid cutting it down ? I've found one of these on marketplace but it's a few cm too long to fit it inside the window like you have. Can it go so it would drop down to the front of the sill?
@@JBTV I was wondering the same. Great video by the way and it helped me. I looked through your short videos but couldn't find one about the blind and so couldn't find the link. Can you provide a link please?
Hi Justin great video 😊 Do you have the outside of the roller towards the window or towards the room? Also when you get to the bottom i would like mine to be the same as yours in night time and is there a way to adjust it the blind is rolled to the bottom and its day time or does it just depend on the drop of the window Thank you
Hey, thanks a lot. I have mine back to front to maximise window sill space, but unlike standard blinds it doesn't look much different which way you have it. Yes it does depend on the drop of the window, but the blind length doesn't change massively when adjusting from night to day. Hope this helps. JB
Thanks Justin. Without this I wouldn’t have had the confidence to cut my blinds and fit them. Keep up the good work!

Thankyou for your very clear easy to follow instructions on how to trim day and night blinds 👍
No problem 😁
a wee job like that could spoil your day very quickly well done JB
Thanks so much, You've helped me a lot love the video so easy to follow
Many thanks , very helpful 🙏🏻
Love the impact driver usage. You know not to smash the screws in but be gentle.
That was a perfect demonstration! I needed that.. thank you
Cool man
Nice job it looked really nice and modern 😊
Thank you. Excellent instructions
beautiful done

Excellent video as always 😀
I fitted one of there yesterday but the horizontal lines don’t match up. One end is out of line. Any suggestions?

How do I fix the stoppers at bottom of blind they keep popping out
Ok great video. What manufacturer as the ones I just bought didn't have the rear box and yours looks much better?
I need to fit mine outside the window as im not confident with cutting it myself. Any tips on doing that please?
That should be straight forward. Feel free to email me any issues

Oh dear. You could email me a short video... justin.bailly74@gmail.com
Nice one Justin, Could you tell me what brand those day/night roller blinds are that you used or a link to where you purchased them please. 👍🏻
Hi, yes they are from Dunelm 👍
Does it matter if the blind is longer than it’s meant to be?

Can it go so it would drop down to the front of the sill?
Can I ask where you got your laser measure thing from?
Amazon. There is a link in the description of the Shorts video I did for it.

How do uou clean these, fitted mine a while back, a light colour but they arr now dirty from dust😢
Take it to your garden and use a power washer

@@JBTV Hi Bailey
Thanks for thr info really appreciate it👍🏻
How far out do u put fixing brackets
How ever far out you want the blind.... you'll need to take into consideration handles etc
Where's the night 😂
Nooice!
Oh please could a professional like you make a video please 🙏
@@Cookie.x.monsterr Are you on something?
