The open-type system is a lightweight design, which is a cloth of cloth, wound on a shaft of various diameters (19-45 mm), based on the dimensions of the product. The eaves are combined with the mechanism that ensures the web reeling. Fastens directly to the wall or window frame.

The box-type system of closed type (cassette) provides the room with high protection from the sun's rays. Shading is created due to the location of the fabric in the box with guides attached to the beadings. The cloth and the winding mechanism are hidden by a plastic or aluminum casing.

It is not necessary that the canvas curtains were made of matter. Bamboo and even wooden samples can be found on sale. They are somewhat reminiscent of blinds, but fabric blinds are deprived of the ability to adjust the flow of sunlight, with the exception of models called "day-night."

Roller blinds can be supplied with or without fishing line. Both models are easy to install and practical to use. Stretched along the edges of the line keeps the canvas on the window frame smoothly and does not allow him to move and rise from the bottom up when the wind gusts. But the most basic differences between the models are in the way they are fixed.

Universal mount in fact, nothing more than a textile sticky velkro, which is often used as a fastener on clothes and shoes. The tape is divided into two parts, one of which with a soft nap, and the second with the smallest hooks for coupling.

The tape is glued with a tenacious side directly onto the plastic frame or onto the eaves. For fixing the tape using glue or screws. The soft part with pile is located on the wrong side of the fabric roleta. For clutch they need to connect with each other.

There are also special lightweight curtains in rolls with fastening with self-adhesive tape. Even a woman can cope with their installation, since for this it is not necessary to have the ability to drill and use a drill or screwdriver. This installation is suitable for window sashes of small width, deaf or opening.

Roller blinds can be ceiling mounted or mounted on a frame. The principle of fasteners is the same in each case. Fabric shutters are fastened to the ceiling mainly in openings when it is planned to completely close the view of the window sill and the window.

You can independently determine what size the canvas should be.

And in the long mechanism of roller blinds allows you to unwind the canvas to your window size. It remains only to fix the roller shutter at a certain level. Before you hang the curtains, you need to make a markup, denoting two points of the positions of self-tapping screws.

Before choosing a Rolshtor design, it is important to determine which size you need. In many ways, the parameters depend on the place of installation:

• in case of the location of the window in the recess the width of the canvas should overlap the window aperture at a distance of 8-10 cm. From each edge, allowances of 5 cm are necessary. Height should be chosen, focusing on the height of the window aperture, adding about 10 cm.
• in the case of the location of the wall and window in a single plane The fastener is chosen such that there is a little distance between the curtain and the wall, the handle should not stick out. The width of the structure is 20 cm longer than the width of the opening. The height - everything is exactly as in the previously described version.
• if you plan to install directly on the window, the width should be taken equal to the glass plus 3 cm.

Fabric blinds or their wooden counterparts can be attached to plastic frames in various ways.

Installation of curtains outside the opening to the ceiling or to the wall hides space, therefore it is undesirable in the cramped conditions of small rooms.

Depending on the configuration, each system has its own installation rules according to the attached instructions. It is possible to assemble and attach the rollers in several ways:

1. On spring brackets.
2. On the screws.
3. Stick on double-sided tape.
4. To velkro tape (not cassette construction).
5. On glue (with the exception of glue with cyanoacrylate, collapsing from moisture and cold air).

Installing fabric curtains directly in the window opening allows you to benefit from the window sill. But the method of attachment, everyone chooses according to their skills and considerations.
