Arctic White Perfect Fit Shutter

Perfect Fit Shutter brackets are designed for the blind to be secured at the top and bottom of the Glass. The brackets are located by punched holes where they will simply slot into; when installing we advise to locate the bottom brackets in their holes first and then locate the top ones.

Adhering to the Perfect Fit Shutter specification, extra brackets are required when a height measurement is equal to or greater than 900mm. The hole on the side frame we drill is circular, which gives the side bracket a better fixing opportunity and is all part of the specification. The side brackets are visible and currently do not have any cover caps or stickers to place over them. We will always try to centre this hole we drill to the height of the stile to be aesthetically pleasing, however there can be times, because of the build of the blind, that this hole has to be off-centred. Such examples are when you may have a window handle rebate or the tensioning screw of the slats is central.

Please note that if your bead depth measurement is between sizes, such as 25mm, we would suggest for you to size down to the 24mm bracket.

Please also note that the top and bottom bracket holes may not always be a credit card width inwards for the brackets, for example, when the shutters have a narrow width. Spacing the bracket holes not at a credit card’s width is a decision which our manufacturing and production department make.

Perfect Fit Shutter blinds are not suitable for any sliding door or bi-fold door system, the frame sits proud by approximately 30mm from fitting flush against the window frame. Hence, this will prohibit any bi-fold door systems folding completely flat against one another.

Please note that your window/door must also be internally beaded, so the brackets can slide behind the beading.

We cannot align and match the slats/louvres for any of our Perfect Fit Shutters which have different drops, which we appreciate could be in the same window or room. As Perfect Fit is measured so accurately, our manufacturing software automatically calculates the pitch between the slats based on the drop of the Glass measurement and this cannot be changed under any circumstance.

We are longstanding members of the British Blinds & Shutter Association (BBSA) and take the safety and care of young children very seriously.

As members of the BBSA we are committed to manufacture blinds that are child safe and to comply with the guidelines outlined in the British & European Safety Standards (BS EN 13120:2009+A1:2014).

We supply all Roller Blinds with either a breakaway device or a fixed tensioning device that we manufacture – the safety device method is chosen automatically by software in our production.

Breakaway Device
A breakaway device has been designed and rigorously tested to come apart under 6kg of pressure; the breakaway device can be easily clipped back together, allowing the blind to be used as normal afterwards. These safety chain connectors are used in pairs and at least 200mm apart. The breakaway device will always remain attached to one end of the chain if it does break apart. In order for this safety device to be fitted in-line with child safety legislation, as the installation height of your window is unknown, we will calculate the chain length to be 2/3 of the blind drop. For example, a blind with a 1000mm drop will have a chain no longer than 666mm.

Fixed Tensioning Device
A fixed tensioning device has been designed to ensure cords are fixed to the wall, to prevent any looped hazards from being present. As the installation height of your window is unknown, for blinds with a drop of less than 2500mm, the chain length will be no longer than 1000mm or for blinds with a drop of more than 2500mm, the chain length will be equal to the blind drop less 1500mm.

We will not make any exceptions for customer requests for any longer chain lengths required, if you would like to query the chain length we would supply for a specific blind size or provide us with an Install Height of your window, then we will be happy to apply this specific instruction to your order – however this must be done within 1 hour of placing your order, by eMail.

We recommend that regular visual checks are carried out to ensure that no components or blind parts have been damaged, dislodged or lost which could result in operating difficulties and/or cause a safety risk. If any maintenance is required, we recommend that the work is carried out immediately, by a reputable blind company and the blind to be removed and not used if there is a safety concern.

Any minor scratches can be buffed out using an ultrafine sanding pad to ensure the shutters maintain their appearance.

For products qualifying for same day dispatch & free next day, please be aware that this is a production upgrade through the factory and not to be confused with a courier service. The order must be made before 11am and all products in the order must qualify for this. For any order after 11am, qualifying orders will dispatch the next working day.

Although we send all items on a next day service, due to our freight mostly being un-conveyable through the courier hub network our delivery partners ask that we allow 2 working days for any item sent by us.

To take advantage of our free promotion production upgrades, these must be selected in checkout. A delivery fee will be payable on any order under our threshold of £199.00, regardless of any free production promotion we advertise on our individual products.

“Blackout” or “Blockout” fabrics – if stated, although the material is blackout/blockout, the blind can contain some light leakage, as such we are unable to advertise any blind system as 100% blackout. As examples; on a vertical blind you may get light leakage between each slat and around the full blind, on a perfect fit blind you may get light leakage between the material and frame and on a roller blind you will get light leakage between the fabric and the edge of the brackets. Some blinds are more effective than others, so please feel welcome to contact our customer care team to find the most ideal blind for you.
