B & Q day and night blinds size adjustment

Cutting day and night style blinds down

Remove small Philips screw from top frame
Pull end cap off
slide blinds out
Mark top frame to the width you want cut with a jigsaw use the original end you cut off as a guide to re drill a new screw hole
using a pencil, mark the blind to the width you want and draw a neat line full length of the blind cut using a new Stanley blade and metal ruler mark the blind 30mm shorter than your top frame width
mark and cut the roller tube the same width as your blind
cut the weighted bar 10mm wider than your blind width job done hope it helps someone thanks

Brilliant mate thanks so much, had odd size windows so this worked a treat and saved loads of money on buying bespoke ones. One thing I found is that I cut the blind with a a large pair of good scissors and it worked much easier than knife

Thank you! I really wanted these but have odd shaped windows but not up for paying for made to measure. This has helped so much!

Great video, like other people have commented B&Q said they couldn't be done.

Great info. Just going to buy tomorrow. My window is 178 and they sell them at 180 😅

I've just got some from dunelm. It says it doesn't recommend cutting but thought surely you can and you've proved it thanks 👍🏻 😁

Thanks for the great tutorial! Do you know where to find spare fixing for these? I have cut mine into two to have on two windows and can no where find spare fixings. Thanks!

Hi Bren can you please tell me how you attach the blind to the wall there is no holes? Thank you

Did the fabric hold up? I’d love to see a finished row as I have huge windows and would need two but don’t know if they’d look right
