• It is fashionable. These practical and comfortable elements of an interior for a long time force out curtains both at offices, and in premises. Now you can buy not only the finished version of the curtains, but also make blinds to order on individual sizes.

Before installing the blinds on the plastic windows need to take the necessary measurements. Thus you can choose and buy the most optimal size of blinds.

In order not to be mistaken in the measurements and they turned out to be accurate, follow the simple instructions:

• It is always necessary to use only steel measuring tape for measurements.
• No need to measure fabric tape (shoe meter) or a complex meter. All this may affect the accuracy of the measurement.
• When recording measurement results, the width is indicated first.

Today, manufacturers offer blinds of various sizes, so you can easily find the right option. There is also the possibility of buying products to order.

It should be noted that not all blinds have the ability to fasten to the window without screws. But if the design allows you to attach it directly to the sash that opens, be sure to do it.

Thanks to this you will get a number of advantages:

• save not only time, but also energy and money;
• quick and easy installation;
• do without help;
• will be able to easily remove and replace the old structure;
• you will not be tormented by the question of what to do with holes after dismantling, because they simply will not be, and the frame will remain in its original form.

The disadvantages of this method of attachment are absent. And although fixing the screws will last longer, but the holes from them in the future can deliver a lot of inconvenience.

Without drilling blinds can be fixed in three ways:

• With the help of a special scotchhaving a double-sided adhesive surface. With this option, the light-shielding design is firmly fixed to all windows - both deaf and opening or folding.
• Mounts on special brackets provides for use only for non-opening windows and eliminates the possibility of installation on the sash, which opens or folds.
• Fixation with magnets. They can hold the canvas in a position parallel to the glass.

Many believe that the blinds fixed in this way can simply fall off due to the unreliability of fastening. But this will never happen if you choose a good and high-quality adhesive tape.

The reliability and convenience of mounting with the help of brackets is not inferior to the first. First, these fixtures are attached to the window frame. Then the construction itself is screwed or latched. If necessary, it is quickly removed, and then hung in its place or replaced.

In this case, you should listen to the manufacturers warnings about the possibility of deformation of rubber for sealing, which is located around the entire perimeter of the sash. Brackets are mounted on it. To avoid this, it is better to attach them to a strip of scotch.

We invite you to familiarize yourself with the structures for sun protection, which can be mounted without drilling:

• Cluster curtains in rolls. They are attached to the window frame with scotch tape. To set the canvas in the desired position, simply pull the cord or chain.
• Roll mini-systems. You will have to tinker a little for attaching them, as you first need to cut and glue small rectangular pieces of tape, and then attach small platforms to them. On them the bracket to which the product fastens also clings. Stripes with magnets are attached to the flap so that the canvas is always held parallel to the window glass.
• Curtains uni. They are a closed box with two guides. Easy to attach double-sided tape.
• Standard blindswhich have horizontal lamellae of aluminum. At the top and bottom of the sash, you must fasten the clamps, and between them pull the cable in pairs.
• Roll curtains. These structures are mounted directly on the window sash with cap brackets or tape.

As you can see, you should not have any difficulties when installing blinds. Despite this, before buying, always ask the seller whether the installation of your chosen design is provided without the use of screws. Ask if the brackets and magnets come to be installed, whether there are step-by-step instructions for mounting them.

A more practical option is to use a special spring bracket, as this does not require damage to the window profile. But this method is only suitable for the sash. Spring bracket can be plastic or aluminum. It simply hangs on the sash and is fixed with a special seal on the spring. On the brackets you must install covers or clamps, under which there are special mounts. Next, proceed to the establishment of the shaft with a curtain. Set restrictive elements on the chain. After that blinds can be used.

There are also models of roller blinds in which the fishing line is not used. Such curtains fasten even easier.On the lower slat of the curtains and on the frame are installed invisible magnets. When the blinds are lowered, the magnets connect and securely fix the canvas.

Another simple way to install roller blinds without a box is with adhesive tape or tape. This method also eliminates damage to the profile, since there is no need for mounting holes. Such models are equipped with special mounting components, the reverse side of which is covered with a special adhesive layer.

After that, you should thoroughly degrease these places. Next, remove the protective tape from the fasteners, attach it evenly to the marked places and press it down firmly to secure it.

After gluing the parts on both sides it is necessary to install on them the side clamps and the sheet directly. This method is very convenient and allows you not to spoil the frame. But its main drawback is insignificant strength and durability. If this option is even more or less suitable for fastening the lower bracket, then it cannot be called very successful for fixing the shaft with the blade.Under their own weight products can simply fall. Moreover, over time, the adhesive properties decrease, so this is a rather short-lived solution.

On the construction of double-sided tape, you can easily install both conventional and cassette products. The main difference will be noticeable only in the mount, and the technology of fasteners will be completely identical.

It is important to provide high-quality grip, so you need to pre-prepare the surface of the window:

1. It is imperative to thoroughly wash the frame of the entire PVC window and dry it thoroughly. This will further help to avoid debris under the tape.
2. You need a degreasing agent to process the place where the tape will be attached. Acetone is most suitable for these purposes.

Roller blinds are very popular today. With simplicity of construction, they are able to effectively darken the room and decorate the windows. In most cases, they are installed directly on the sash, due to which they darken the room well and decorate the window. If you install without drilling, then you can not damage the glass. Reviews of this method of attachment is mostly positive.
