NETdoûr / BLINDdoûr – Step-by-Step Assembly, Fitting & Cleaning Guide

Before you start

  • Your NETdoûr / BLINDdoûr arrives disassembled.
  • Work on a clean, dry, flat surface to avoid scratching the frame.
  • Decide which way you want the door to open/close before you begin (this affects which way round the side parts of the frame are to be fitted).

1) Identify the parts

  • Top frame section: the larger frame piece with a deep channel along the top (the net/blind slots into this).
  • Side frame with cartridge: one side frame has the cartridge clipped to it.
  • Opposite side frame: the other side frame has a small channel running down the full length.
  • Cartridge: contains the net/blind inside. If you open it slightly you’ll see the net/blind and a plastic chain-link section at the top and bottom.
  • Low-profile floor strip: fits to the floor where the bottom of the net/blind slides.

2) Assemble the NETdoûr / BLINDdoûr frame

  • Lay the top frame section on your flat surface.
  • Take the two side frame sections (including the side with the cartridge).
  • Slot both side frame sections into the top frame section until fully seated.
  • Double-check the frame orientation matches the direction you want the door to open/close.

3) Install the NETdoûr / BLINDdoûr (choose a fixing method)

Step A: Position the frame and test the floor strip

  • Hold the assembled frame in the exact position where it will be fitted.
  • Place the low-profile floor strip on the floor underneath the section where the net/blind will slide.
  • Slide the net/blind over the strip a few times to confirm the plastic chain section runs smoothly over it.

Step B: Fix the side frames in place (with top part of frame attached)

Choose one method:

  • Screw fixing: screw the side frames into the wall.
  • 3M tape fixing: apply strong 3M tape down the left and right side frames, then press firmly into place.

Step C: Fix the floor strip permanently

  1. Firstly, open the net/blind fully with the low profile strip in place to ensure that it is in the correct position and then use a pencil to draw along both sides of the strip.
  2. Remove the low profile strip and take off the adhesive backing from the underside.
  3. Press the strip firmly down into position.
  4. Test again that the net/blind runs smoothly across the bottom strip.

Step D: Finish the edges (optional)

  • Apply caulk or silicone around the frame to create a neat finish and prevent gaps.

4) Remove the cartridge for cleaning

  • Make sure the net/blind is fully open.
  • Unclip the cartridge from the side frame it is attached to.
  • Pull the cartridge away from the side frame and position it roughly in the centre of the frame.
  • Tilt the cartridge diagonally.
  • Slide it out of the top frame section.
  • You can now clean the net/blind properly.

5) Refit the cartridge after cleaning

  • Insert the cartridge back into the frame at the same diagonal angle.
  • Slide it back into the top frame section.
  • Clip the cartridge back onto the side frame.
  • Open and close the net/blind to confirm smooth operation.
