Expectation setting: This is a true blackout roller blind with an acrylic foam backing. It is designed to prevent light penetration through the fabric. Light ingress can still occur around the edges depending on installation and recess conditions.
Battery powered blackout performance with flame retardant fabric
This battery operated roller blind uses a flame retardant blackout fabric with a matching acrylic foam backing. The backing makes the fabric PVC free and fully opaque, providing effective room darkening for bedrooms, accommodation and other light-sensitive spaces.
The blind operates via a low voltage 7.4v DC motor housed inside a 40mm grooved aluminium barrel. Electronic limit stops and a soft start/stop function are integrated as standard. The system is remote controlled (remote not supplied unless selected).
Charging is via a supplied mains charger (one per order) or optional solar panel. When used approximately twice per day, a full charge lasts around six months.
Where this fits in our range
Positioned as a motorised blackout solution within our commercial roller blind range. Choose this model when mains wiring is not practical but powered operation is required. For manual operation, see our chain-operated FR blackout options.
Best suited for
Suitable for bedrooms, hotels, serviced accommodation, care environments and education settings where blackout and flame retardant performance are required.
Also specified in offices and commercial buildings where glare control and privacy are needed without permanent electrical installation.
Made to measure manufacturing
Each blind is manufactured to your supplied dimensions. Brackets are suitable for face or top fixing and include white metal brackets with plastic covers. The fabric is locked into the barrel groove and finished with a white fabric-covered bottom bar.

Electric Roller BlindExcellent product Ordered a custom build electric blackout blind 2.4m in length and expected to wait up to 28 days for this one off, however it was made and delivered in under a week, and my wife loves it, being disabled she loves the fact that she just has to press the button for instant darkness or for instant opening in the morning no more struggles with heavy curtains for her, or having to get me to open up the curtains for her when I get up often hours before she is ready to wake Up. Hence the rating excellent product easy to install and set up.0 people found this helpful
How to Measure For Curtains, Blinds and Tracks.
Pen and Paper
For recording your
measurements.
Helper
Someone to assist if your
windows are large .
Metal Tape Measure
As this will allow you to get a
rigid full length measurement.
Make sure your curtain tracks and poles are fitted in the position you want.
Choose the type of curtains that you would like and how you want to hang your curtains. See our heading styles guide
We recommend fitting your hardware first before measuring, this avoids any issues with not getting the perfect fit.
Measure your window using our main guide. Quick summary below. Remember wave, pinch, and designer headings require slightly different measurement
Measure in 3 places and take the shortest drop – Floors and ceilings can run out.
Double / Triple check your measurements
Choosing your Curtain Track Width
The width of the curtain track should extend past your window this allows for the curtains to stack back away from your window and allow light in.
Measure your recess and then add on 15cm on either side. For acoustics , we recommend further to fully cover the window and the surrounding area. In our test we added an additional 30cm to the width and also made the curtain floor length.
Wave curtains, for every 100cm of track the curtains will stack circa *18cm
Eyelet curtains, they will stack back circa 10cm per *70cm of track width
Pencil Pleat will stack approx 25% of the track width. eg. 210cm track will stack 52.5%
* all dependent on thickness of fabric

How to Measure for Blinds going Inside the Recess
- Measure the exact width of the recess in three places; at the top of the recess, in the centre of the recess and near the bottom - then take the smallest size.
- Measure the exact drop of the recess in three places on the left hand side of the recess, in the centre of the recess and on the right hand side of the recess - then take the smallest size.
- We will take one cm off the finished width size you have given us, to allow for the blind to pull up and down easily.
- Double check your measurements
- Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the Fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm
How to Measure Outside of the Recess
- Measure the recess in 3 places on the width and also 3 places on the drop. Take the widest measurement.
- Measure the width of the actual recess plus an additional amount – Usually from 7cm-15cm whatever you think looks appropriate. This is for overlap.
- Measure the exact drop of the recess. The blind would be fitted above the recess, so check the space above and add an amount on to the drop – usually from 7-15cm
- These sizes you have taken will be the size of the finished blind.
- Double check your measurements
- Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm
Cubicle Tracks you have to measure with right angles from wall to wall where you want the track to go
Draw your room on a piece of paper with a sky view
Now measure from the wall to wall for straight tracks,
L Shape Tracks Measure to a point on the floor and mark with a piece of tape. Then for the other sides measure from the other wall to that point.
Always check for obstructions and fitting issues you may need to work around
