Why Perfect Fit blinds are easy to install
Perfect Fit blinds are cleverly designed to clip directly onto your uPVC window or door frame without drilling or screws. This makes them one of the simplest options to fit yourself, while still giving a neat, built-in finish. Because the blind is held within its own frame, it moves with the window when you open or close it – ideal for tilt-and-turn windows, conservatories, and doors.
What you’ll need before you start
One of the big advantages of Perfect Fit blinds is that you don’t need a box of tools. Usually, you’ll just need a tape measure, a clean cloth to wipe down the window frame, and perhaps a blunt tool like a butter knife to help guide in the brackets if they feel tight. The blinds arrive with all the clips and frame parts you need.
Step-by-step fitting guide
1. Prepare the window
Wipe the uPVC frame so it’s clean and free from dust or grease. This helps the brackets and blind sit snugly without obstruction.
2. Insert the brackets
Slide the supplied brackets carefully between the glass and the rubber beading of your window. You’ll need one at each corner, plus extras along the sides for larger blinds. These brackets are what hold the blind frame in place.
3. Assemble the blind frame
Connect the frame pieces together on a flat surface. Once assembled, the blind itself will already be housed within the frame.
4. Clip the frame into place
Line up the frame with the brackets you’ve just fitted, then press it firmly until it clicks into position. Work your way around the edges to make sure every side is secure.
5. Test the operation
Use the handle or tab at the bottom to raise and lower the blind. It should move smoothly up and down within the frame. If it feels uneven, check that all clips are properly engaged.
Common issues and how to solve them
If the frame doesn’t seem to fit, double-check that the brackets are inserted fully into the beading. A stiff fit is normal, but don’t force them too hard – gently ease them in. If the blind doesn’t sit flush against the glass, make sure the frame corners are fully connected. Should the blind feel tight when moving, check that no debris is trapped in the side channels.

Although Perfect Fit blinds are straightforward, not all windows are standard. If your frames are unusually shaped, or you’d simply prefer a guaranteed perfect result, experts such as Kelly’s Blinds can handle the measuring and fitting for you.
