How to hang roman blinds

The Roman curtain is attached in two ways: mount in the doorway, (only for this purpose it should be perfectly flat, especially vertically). Do not forget to pay attention to the design of the window. If the upper transom is missing, and the window opens all the way up, then in this case the Roman blind will become a hindrance. In this case, it is better to prefer an external fastener. With it, you can also hide the curvature of the window and building defects. Pay attention to the windowsill. If it is installed correctly (take out 5 cm on each side), then the width of the drapery is made equal to the width of the window sill. If not, then the Roman curtain should be more by 10-20 cm than the width of the window opening.
