Check clearance around the window
Seal
The Perfect Fit framework needs a minimum of 6mm clearance all round the window frame.
Seals must not protrude over the glass by more than 6mm. If the seal is compressible, you cantake a ‘bead to bead’ measurement. If not, then take a ‘seal to seal’ measurement.

Measuring Glass Size

For more information on measuring, see Louvolite Perfect Fit measuring, assembling and fittinginstructions for pleated and venetian blinds.
Measure both the width and
the drop accurately.
We recommend the use of a
metal tape measure.
Measure both corners and the middle and use the smallest measurement taken.
Repeat the above step for the drop.
Window depth can be measured using a depth gauge (P9481). This gives you the measurementfrom the face of window frame to the glass (normally range from 18mm to 24mm)
This will determine the size of the window fixing brackets required.
You can utilise the Perfect Fit survey sheet to record this information.

Fitting Corner Joints
Secure the joints by tightening the 4screws on each joint.
Assemble the bottom of a frame using 2 corner joints (R4026).
Do this by sliding the joints into
your frame section.

end of your table.
Tube adaptor
Tube supports
Place your roller blind tube into
this using the correct size slot
for the fabric thickness
Place your aluminium bottom bar
into the slot provided. Place the
small groove face up for single or
double wrap.
Place your fabric face up and
against the left hand straight
edge, overlapping your top tube
by approx 15 mm

Clamp down the fabric.
Starting at the right hand side of
your fabric. Use the creasing tool
and forming tool to form the fabric
into the groove on your tubing.
From the Mylar punch, pull a length
of fabric locking tape (FLT) to the
width of your blind and press down
onto the punch to cut it.
Please note: There are 3 sizes of FLT
6,7,8mm that can be used dependant
on the thickness of fabric.

Return to the right hand side of
the blind and hook the FLT to the
hook on your forming tool
Pull the FLT through the tube
Cut off any excess fabric that
appears along the tube.
Release the clamp bar and cut off
any excess FLT on both ends.

Release the clamping arm and
then turn your fabric and bottom
bar forward 180 degrees and
replace back into bottom bar
groove.
Crease form and insert FLT into
this groove then cut off any
excess fabric.
Remove from bottom bar groove
and cut off any excess FLT.
Turn your fabric 180 degrees
clockwise and place against the
left hand straight edge and
overlapping the bottom bar by
70mm and then clamp down the
fabric.
Crease, form and insert the FLT,
as previously done into the
groove on your bottom bar

Rotate to lock.
Slide the spring onto thespring drive unit.
Once assembled, slide the rollerblind over the spring assemblyuntil it will go no further.
Before the leg is all the way in, ensurethat the bush on the corner joint linesup with the top tube.
Final Frame Joint
The simplest way to do this is to slidethe leg of the corner joint into thecurved section.
Slide the curved section into the spring end and then the remaining corner joint needs to belined up with the top tube and the curved section.

Fitting Curved Top Section
For white and brown frames:Slide top of curved section into the rest of theframe. Add ‘Wrap Tension’ (see page 17 forinstructions).
Once ‘Wrap Tension’ has been applied ensurethat end caps are located into the side channel.
Fix securely with the two screws on each joint.
Fix one side in position at a slight angle then place the opposite side into position.Please ensure that the bottom bar sits behind the grooving.
Securing Bottom Bar
��
Adding ‘Wrap Tension’
5. Push the worm retaining clip intothe hexagon slot to secure the tension.
In order for the fabric to roll up, we need to add ‘wrap tension’ at the top of the blind.
1. Pull down the blind (do notmanually push back up as itneeds to raise naturally with thetension)
2. Insert a 4mm allen key or apower tool, or an angled allendrive attachment (R9002 asshown) into the hexagon slot inthe control end
3. Turn ‘anti-clockwise’ to addtension until the blind starts tolift.
4. Tension is complete when theblind is fully opened.(i.e. all the fabric is wrappedaround the roller)

Last of all, ensure that the blind end caps fit into side grooves. Fit all corner joint covers intoposition and your blind is finished.
Finished Blind
Line up the bracket with the base or top of the credit card (depending on which corner of thewindow you are working) and fit the bracket by pushing it between the glass and the rubber sealof the window.
Repeat for all 4 corners of the window, and intermediate brackets (if required) then clean excesslubricant prior to fitting the frame.
Fitting Perfect Fit
Line up bracket with edge of card
19
To ensure all brackets are in the correct position for fitting (85mm from beading) use a credit cardin the corner of the window to locate the bracket position.
For ease of insertion, use a lubricant in the form of washing up liquid on the base of each bracket.
Fitting the Frame
Line up the holes in the frame with the brackets
Your blind is now installed.
20
Firmly press the frame down onto eachbracket. Fit one side at a time for an easierinstallation.
