removing thomas sanderson blinds. (2023 Update)

[scorzeze]

hi all i would appreciate any help on how to remove my thomas sanderson blinds from my conservatory windows for cleaning. the type of blinds i have are pleated and they are fitted discretely on the top and bottom of the rebate of the window. they seem to be held on by two clips on the top and bottom.any instructions on how to remove them would be greatly appreciated as i dont want to force them in case i break it and they cost an absolute packet in the first place. btw they are non electric just slide up and down. thanks in advance. scorzeze.

Don't know about specific Thomas Sanderson blinds but if it's the type where a frame is set around the window and the blind sits within the frame also known as "perfect fit" blinds in the trade. The frame is held in place by clips pushed inbetween the beading and the glass a small button on the clip locates into a slot in the frame and just needs a slight push on the button to release it.

The button to press is visible behind the cord, just press it in with a screwdriver and pull the frame outwards.

Once all the clips on one side are released then the frame can be removed.

View of clip removed from window, the short bend is the part hooked between glass and beading.

Yes, well if they will post on stupid forums which date stuff in months and ignore years that questing could have been originated by Fred Flintstone!
