I have recently purchased a 10 year old Rimor van and a couple of the blinds rattle really badly, plus the ones by the bunks have clearly taken a lot of knocks from kids rolling around in the night.

I am looking to replace some or all of the blinds - where should I look to find decent quality blinds that are easy to fit and might not rattle??

Thanks
Damian

Have a look at getting them re-tensioned if they have had a lot of abuse that could be why they are rattling.

If they are cassette blinds they are bit of pain to tension but if they are the roller type they are easy to do any good caravan place should be able to do it for you.

Quite a number of people leave their blinds down all winter. I only know that this causes wrinkles etc, and having been under tension for so long, hard to operate. It is not push button stuff, nothing instant, take care with them, and they will be fine.
