Change Builders Range Roller Blind From Back Roll to Front Roll
By Betta Blinds and Awnings - 5th December 2022
Note
This applies to our Builders Range Roller Blinds. If you have a Standard Range Roller Blind you can check out this guide instead.
This technique only works for fabrics without a backing such as Vibe or Duo Screen. If you need to do back to front with a fabric that has a backing you will need to use the technique used on Standard Range Roller Blinds.
