The classic roll-up system in which the fabric winds onto an aluminium tube and works through a chain mechanism.

A fabric and colour range running from sheer to full blackout suits every room — it mounts on the wall, the ceiling or inside the recess. ### Technical Specifications Roller Blind manufacturing spec sheet Material - Fabric A fabric range from sheer to blackout: Roller (non-Zebra) - Tube Aluminium tube winding the fabric: Aluminium - Mechanism A smooth rolling layout: Geared Chain Mounting - Mounting Three mounting-surface options: Wall / Ceiling / Recess Use - Control Graded control by chain: Chain (opt. Motorised) Compatibility - Compatibility Suits every room type: Home · Office The tube mechanism seats on mounting brackets; the brackets hold to the wall, the [ceiling](https://www.fenetresystems.com/en/curtain-installation-types/) or inside the recess. The chain side is stated on the order — a child-safety device is included. - The glazing’s width and height are recorded (cm). - The direction the fabric winds and the chain side are written. - The fixing point is taken — inside recess, wall or ceiling. On inside-recess fitting the tube diameter needs a depth allowance — the clear-depth note is enough. ## How the roller blind works The fabric winds onto the top tube as a single piece and lowers through the chain mechanism — the rolled fabric forms a slim roll above the tube. This build gives the blind a flat surface both closed and open. Chain control is managed one-handed — the mechanism’s gear ratio sets the fabric’s lowering speed. On heavy and wide rollers the unit is taken with a reduction gear: the chain pull stays constant while the fabric lowers under control. The bottom profile of the roller keeps the fabric taut — in an exposed position its weight holds the fabric steady, which removes flapping noise on balconies and in front of windows. ## Fabric choice and use area The roller blind’s function comes from the chosen fabric — the sheer series softens light, the dimout series shades, the blackout series gives full darkness. The same mechanism is produced with three different fabrics: the mechanics stay, the result changes. In kitchens and offices a wipe-clean fabric series is chosen — a surface that does not hold stains reduces cleaning to a single wipe, while in bedrooms the blackout series is considered by the darkness expectation. On a narrow window the roller’s tube package fits inside the recess — where the unit would protrude, the aluminium-cassette variant is chosen; the cassette protects the fabric from dust and sun, which matters on light-coloured fabrics. In a children’s room it is used with the chain-safety retainer — the hanging chain is fixed to the wall, and on the motorised version the chain disappears completely. A fabric-covered cassette completes the look — the covered cassette hides the tube and keeps the top of the window clean, matching the blind’s own appearance. ## Mounting plane and the measurement decision The roller blind mounts on three planes — inside recess, on the wall and on the ceiling. Inside-recess fitting keeps the unit within the joinery and the window line unchanged; wall and ceiling mounting cover the opening completely. The recess depth decides the cassette — the tube package and the cassette volume must fit the depth; a slim recess takes a cassette-free tube, a deep one the cassette version. The measurement form asks for the recess depth separately. The window-handle projection sets the fabric’s fall line — the handle’s swing must not catch the fabric; the unit is placed beyond the handle line or the plane changes with recess mounting. On a two-sash window one unit is produced per sash — the tube-bending limit of a single wide roller is overcome by splitting; two slim units keep both mechanical and visual balance. On the wall plane the dowel is matched to the material — the dowel type differs for concrete, aerated block and plasterboard; a wrong dowel loosens the unit and tilts it over time. Fabric edges leave a gap between joinery and fabric — thin light beams enter through the edge gaps; for total darkness a guided-channel zip or outside mounting is needed. Fabric cleaning is done with a damp cloth — polyester fabric wipes clean and no abrasive detergent is used; yearly maintenance is limited to checking the mechanism. ## Production line and order notes The fabric series is chosen by the room’s function — screen, dimout or blackout; the light need and privacy expectation are compared on the fabric card. The chain side and length are set by usage habit — right- or left-hand control, with the chain length cut to the window height. ## Blind decision list In any space seeking a plain, functional solution the roller blind is the first candidate — few parts, simple use and a wide fabric range offer a solution for every room. The fabric series is the heart of the decision — screen, dimout, blackout and technical fabrics all work on the same mechanism; the room’s need is taken from the card. On a wide window the split plan is made first — when a single piece passes its limit, two units are fitted side by side, with the joint line aligned to the window mullion. On heavy fabric the mechanism is chosen first — blackout and dual-layer fabrics take a reinforced spring and a thicker tube; the fabric weight is noted on the order. A daily use routine extends fabric life — the fabric is not left half-rolled and is not pulled from the edge; a fabric drawn straight does not wear at the edges. ## Questions About Roller Blind Can a roller blind be fitted inside the recess? Recess, wall and ceiling mounting are all possible — a depth allowance is taken for the tube diameter. Can the fabric be changed later? Yes — the mechanism stays and the fabric is replaced; the new fabric winds onto the same tube. ## Other Curtains Models Roller Blind is built around made to measure, wide fabric range, chain control. The remaining 7 models in the Curtains range are listed.
