Hi,
I have just bought a roller blind from Dunelm, and want to cut it to size to for the window. However i can't get the plastic bar out of bottom as fitted to tight. So can't cut to size with it in there. Any advice?
( now i have opened the packet and put the brackets up don't really want to have to take it back.

Use a clean, fine-bladed saw and cut straight through the blind and the plastic bar.
I've never had one that tight, they normally fall out.
Tried brute force? Prolly just a random spot of glue.
Roller blinds are the spawn of the Devil.
>+1 or I've had this problem. Unwind the blind and trim the fabric with scissors, then use a sharp knife to cut the fabric around the plastic bar, then juniour hacksaw to cut the bar.
I've sometimes had to do the same with the roller at the top when the the fabric has been "permanently" fixed to it.
