Mounting Conservatory Blinds

Mounting your new conservatory blinds on wood is perhaps the simplest of all. Your kit should already have come with screws, and all you need is a screwdriver to screw the blinds into the wood. Of course you need a level to make sure that the blind is hanging straight, unless you are sure of your eye and the top of the windows that you are mounting the blind on.

It does get a bit more difficult if you're having to mount the blinds on a metal or plastic frame, or if you have to drill into cement. While a bit more difficult, it is still fairly easy if you have the right tools and pieces to use. Make sure you have toggle bolts if you're planning on attaching the blinds to plastic framework, and for attaching to the metal frame you will need metal screws. As these aren't usually included with the blind kits, you'll have to come up with them yourself so if you don't have them in your tool kits already then you may need to make a quick trip to the local home depot to pick them up.

Same thing applies with attaching the blind to a cement surface. For this, you'll need a power drill and you'll have to make sure you have anchors for the screws.

Once you have the right type of screws and accessories, it should be pretty simple to get those blinds up! Not to nag on this point, but do make sure you have everything you need for the project before you start, and then go ahead and have fun hanging your conservatory blinds.
