Installed these easily today. Any moderately handy person can do this job. Every problem described in the comments is caused by failure to read or follow the instructions. All the required parts are present for both wall or ceiling mounting.

would I recommend these? No. instructions are not clear. so many different options for mounting no clear direction. I paid 200$, and I wish I paid 600 and got some good ones garbage .

Gliders get jammed in the extension of the rail everytime when pulling. So frustrated, used wd40 and silicon spray, but nothing works, a total waste of time.

Regrettably, this video demonstration is not consistent with the Caprice tracks I purchased as it does not click onto the brackets, which have to be fastened to the wall. If you release new products or adapted products, then you need to update your videos so that customers feel properly supported.

So, not sure if this will get a reply as this video is two years old, but I'll try. How do you add more gliders to the track? Are you meant to remove the side caps?
@felixlersha Жыл бұрын
You probably already worked this out but you don't need to remove the sides. You just press down on the metal guards at either end which gives you enough space to remove or add either gliders or carriers. It took me a little while to work this out myself. :)

"Drop the tracks into the heavy duty brackets." Good one. First of all, it doesn't look anything like the tracks you clicked onto the brackets which were fastened to that wall. And in any case, it was so amateurish how he just left the track sitting off kilter in the bracket on the table. This is some lazy bullshit. Anyway, I checked the product review of these Tribeca tracks and apparently they twist out of shape and have poor ratings. EDIT: Also, at 5:18 he didn't wrap the cord around that right hand side, little upper notch, the ones that point diagonally to the centre, like the left. WTF, Spotlight?!

I just purchased these in NZ. The packaging says for both wall and ceiling mounting. Drove the 40 minutes home, opened the packet only to read that I had to buy seperate mountings for the ceiling. Waste of time and money to do another 1.30 round trip to get the right fittings when the outside packaging makes no mention of needing seperate brackets. Extremely misleading.

Caprice needs to re invent the paper instruction guide with a LOT more detail. With a 120 wide blind going in to a 117 recess, how much do I cut off to allow for bracket and roller fixtures?

this is a pretty good vid. I installed 4 blinds this afternoon. Was able to manage it with not much drama. The vid could be a bit more detailed, eg: how the ends fit and measuring etc. There is a bit of wriggle room with the measurements but not much! Good job.

I spent the entire day installing the heavy duty tracks and they are useless. Illnow have to spend more time uninstalling and returning them. I came to this video as the instructions they came with wasn't the product I purchased. The centre support brackets do not hold the track at all and the rod keeps falling out. Hopeless quality and design

Unfortunately Caprice blinds do not all come with metal fittings. The two blinds I recently purchased came with very flimsy and flexible plastic brackets that do not provide a secure fit (the blind falls down when the chain is pulled, even gently); plastic bead chains that jam and do not actually turn the roller; and cheap alloy screws that hollow out when used (so they can't be easily removed). The good news is that the fabric does block out light. I made it work by swapping the fabric onto the old self-sprung roller frame with metal brackets.

Has not clarified which way round the blinds should be installed or if it matters. Video suggests sheer blind closest to glass with block-out blind on the room side. I expected the other way round with block-out on the sun side. Does it matter? I looked at the video to get advice on this but it was not provided. Unfortunately the video focused on sprooking the product rather than providing vital installation information. The instructions provided with the product are inadequate crying out for some illustrations and not just text.

Thank you for your feedback. Platinum Day Night roller blinds can be front or back rolled, depending on your window area and preference. The position of the blockout roller and sheer roller is totally up to personal taste and does not affect the performance of the blind. Regarding more illustrations for the instructions, we will be reviewing and updating our instructions for assist in easier DIY installation.
