Frequently Asked Questions


If your spring operated roller blind will no longer retract, follow the steps below to re-tension the spring;

Faber System

  • With the blind installed in the brackets pull the blind down approximately 30cm.
  • Remove the blind from the brackets and roll the blind up by hand.
  • Refit the blind and check for tension.
  • The above steps may need to be repeated several times to achieve the required tension, being careful not to over tension

Alternatively;

  • Remove the blind from the brackets.
  • Insert a screwdriver into the cross-end (spring end) and turn to tension the spring, being careful not to over tension.
  • Ensure the spring locks off before removing the screwdriver.
  • Refit the blind.
  • If additional tension is required, repeat the steps above.

Louvolite System

  • When the blind is pulled down, push the front locking pin in.
  • Gently remove the blind from the brackets and roll back up by hand.
  • Refit the blind in to the brackets noting the correct fitting position as indicated on the end of the blind.
  • Pull the locking pin to the out position being careful not to fully remove the pin.
  • Pull the blind down to check tension.
  • If additional tension is required repeat the steps above.

Additional tension can be added by following the brief instructions below;

  • Remove the blind form the window and lay face down.
  • At the bottom of the blind, undo the cord from one side of the spring.
  • Pull a small amount of cord through and re-tie to the spring.
  • Refit the blind.

Following the steps above adds additional tension to the spring which in turn tensions the cord to keep the blind in place when raised.  If this does not resolve the issue found please contact our sales team.

Due to the nature of fabric dyes and natural materials an exact match is not always possible.  We do however endeavour to guarantee multiple blinds of the same style and colour are within the same batch.  Wooden Blinds alike due to their natural characteristics can vary in shades.

In the unlikely event your blind does not measure the exact size you requested (if exact measurements were entered) please contact our sales department 0800 093 9635 or email sales@soeasyblinds.co.uk and we will endeavour to rectify any problems as quickly as possible.

Please note that any recess measurements given when ordering will have a set amount deducted.

Regrettably we can not exchange or refund any blinds which prove to be the correct size unless faulty or damaged.
