How to modify IKEA Fyrtur to fit your window frame

[@NickdeReuver]

Thanks for this informational video! For everybody that’s going to try this. Do not measure the top from the plastic part but from the aluminum part. The top part is 8mm wide, so if you want to shorten it by 4 centimeters and you measure from the plastic part you only take of 3.2 centimeters. That’s probably why you came up short the first time. Maybe it’s also a good idea to add this information to the video. 😊👍🏻

[@TheBooban]

This makes sense. I was wondering how did he saw so badly he missed 1cm. Even he didn’t understand what happened, haha.

[@siobhanellis]

I've done mine differently. I had to reduce by 2cm. I reduce the housing by 2cm, like you. However, you will note that the roller is actually 2.5cm wider than the blind itself. So, I took off 1cm from each end of the roller. This has the advantage that the blind is now closer to the edge of the window recess and gives a better black out as you get less light bleed.

[@TooManyGadgets]

Good input. It's takes a little bit longer, but could be time well spend if you really want to minimize the light bleed!

[@hshm1984]

You are a legend for posting this DIY tutorial. I saved hundreds of dollars going this route and the fit turned out perfect.

[@TooManyGadgets]

Very kind of you - have a great (and safe) New Year!

[@franktechniek]

Made the same mistake, my window is 121cm wide so I figured a 120cm would be a piece of cake to mount. Will shorten it tomorrow, following your instructions, thank you for showing it can be done with a little bit of effort.

[@TooManyGadgets]

Sounds great!

[@marcelchaloupka]

I’ve been thinking about this for a while as my window dimensions are ‘standard’. Thanks for doing the hard work.

[@TooManyGadgets]

You are the first person I’ve EVER seen wearing a Nylon Apple Watch Band Edit: Also wanted to thank you for showing that these blinds can be cut for a more precise custom fit!

[@TooManyGadgets]

clearly I'm a pioneer :D

[@ozols007]

Hi. Great video. Explains everything. I only have question how much cm is possible to cut off? My frame is 109 cm, and i need buy 120 cm size. Total size of curtain frame is 123 cm, so i need cut off 15 cm. Is it possible?

[@TooManyGadgets]

Thanks - and 15 cm will not be a problem. You can reduce it a lot, as its only the motor part that you see in my video that cant be reduced.

[@diymasterTM]

Hi. Do you have some idea how to make longer? That will unwinds more? I know I need to change textile, this is not a problem. Just how to set it?

[@fadrian98]

These are great! I did this for some blackout curtains but the manual type from ikea as well. I'll definitely say that it does take precise cutting and measuring. My tip is to cut less that you need at first because once you cut too much then there's not coming back from that. Then, start cutting little by little. Unless someone has another tip then please do offer. If I knew that these motorized shades were cuttable then I would have gone with these instead. I do have these motorized shades but on my wall draping instead of in the recess. Then I have the other manual blackout curtains in the recess.

[@georgebonelli2283]

Thanks. I have appreciated. Very helpful. A quick question my window is 33-5/8’ and the nearest size is 34” - is the unit exactly 34 or might it a bit bit smaller out of the box? Wondering if I get a 34 will it fit snugly or will I need to remove 1/4” thanks.

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi Geoge - I would advice you watch the followup video I did, where I spend more time on the messurements of the different parts, that should hopefully answer you question :)

This is neat Can you recommend getting these in a bedroom for the ability to wake up slow (opening up blinds before you're waking up - light sleeper) They seemed noisy - can they be set to a slow speed?

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi Emil - will work great in a bedroom - however you are correct that the motor is noticable (noise wise) while running - its not that bad but might wake you up. No possibility to control speed

Have you noticed any issues with fraying of the actual blind material over time since you cut it?

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi Chris - not at all :)

[@1chrisrowe]

@@TooManyGadgets Great to hear. About to cut mine and had some issues with their manual ones fraying at the edges, even without trimming.

[@1chrisrowe]

@@TooManyGadgets For others trying this, I thought a new Olfa blade and ruler as a guide would be better than scissors, but after experimenting with both, scissors give you a more consistent edge. The Olfa technique actually is more prone to fraying.

[@potsider5733]

Hi,is it possible curtain fall by the other side??..thank you.

[@TooManyGadgets]

In theory yes - you could turn it around, but that would make it impossible to open the battery compartment without taking the curtain down. The batteris later super long, so if its important to you, it may be an viable option

[@seanmcgregor197]

Does the curtain material not start to fray or fall apart when you cut it with the scissors?

@@espenthrondsen4660 still very happy and no signs of threads falling out of place or anything similar

[@fadrian98]

Also, another configuration that not a lot of people know about these is the set limit. Set them at a level that you want them to always stop. Press the bottom button the blinds twice and voila!

[@jackgreenwood-allum3169]

Great video. Do you know what is the minimum width including the casing?

[@TooManyGadgets]

I would say around 40 CM

[@ashbeckz]

Great vid and excellent attention to detail. My problem is I need fabric longer than 76” otherwise I would have bought these yesterday.

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi Ashley. In theory you can remove the existing fabric and replace it with your own - though there will still be a limit as the roll cannot touch the bottom of the base unit

[@ocpd23]

Thanks for making this video. Do you think it is possible to shorten the height of the shade as well? I can't tell if the shade only opens all of the way, or if you can stop the shade when it is halfway down. I have a much shorter window than your nice tall windows, and wondered if I need to cut the shade down. Thanks

[@TooManyGadgets]

yep that should not be a problem. Just remember to adjust how far it goes down to match what you've cut off. Thats done by holding the button downs on the unit

[@Nana_S_T]

No need to cut the curtains. You can set a length that they roll open to, so the curtains will stop at that length and won’t open more unless you decide to delete the setting by pressing the buttons on the actual curtain, not the remote. Very easy, and makes cutting the curtain unnecessary.

[@stenvikteam]

I have a question, hopefully i can get a fast answer. I have a balkony wich is built in with windows. its 5,5m from start to end. I was wondering, is it possible to buy two ikea fyrtur, take of the original blinds, and add one superlong blind at 5,5m wide to both ends at the motor so it covers all the windows. Do you think this is possible or will it be to hard on the motors? I could possibly add a suport in the middle, like a roler of some sort. What do you think? :)

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi Åsmund, I think it could be done, but as you say the motor is properly the weak point. I think you would need to be very carefull about the fabric you choose. The more heavy it is, the more strain you put on the motor. So if you do this extenstion, I would try to find a super light fabric

[@stenvikteam]

@@TooManyGadgets Totally agree, i have come to the conclusion to buy two used ones for 100 dollars. And buying thin light semiseetrough fabric! So it will be 2,75 in length for each motor. I think that would be a good idea atleast, better chance for a success. Will be making a youtube video on it!☺☺ Thanks for fast response!

[@Sperious]

Great video! Very informative, good pacing, nice and detailed shots, clear narration and no annoying background music! Thank you! Were these the 60 cm version of the blinds? How small can you cut them/how wide is the motor unit?

[@TooManyGadgets]

Thanks Anders! Yes its the 60cm version, and you can remove a lot. When you see the video the only thing you cant cut off is the battery and motor section. But that accounts for about a 1/3 of the total length

[@Sperious]

Thank you!

[@decosse01]

Great resource - thank you! The Euro Dimension and the US dimension seem to be at odds - for example the smallest US size is stated at 23" (584mm) - but then specifies the fabric width as 21-1/4" - 540mm; this I would have to presume is the 60cm model - which you show overall is 64cm on the mounting. I did have one other question on the dimensions - for an 'outside mount' when the bracket is located directly on the wall, what would the space be between the fabric and the wall?

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi - so all of mine are mounted in the "ceiling" / top section of the windows as our frames would not allow for it to be mountes in the "wall" part of the frame

[@superluminique]

Fantastic video! Do you know if it's possible to install it with reverse rolling? i.e. instead of rolling down from the back against the window, to roll down from the front towards the room. I need to make it roll the other way around as otherwise it will get stuck on the lower half of the window as it goes down.

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi Rene - thanks. That would not be easy...you can turn the roll, but when you start the motor, the bottom curtain list would try go over the top part of the roll and block. So you would need to reverse the motor, so that it would flip it's normal behaviour. The other alternative is to turn the curtain itself 180 degrees - but that would leave you with the battery compartment facing the window frame...

[@superluminique]

Too Many Gadgets that's pretty much what I thought. It's too bad as I'm sure they could set a firmware upgrade that would reverse the motor and then just have one turn the roll around (but not the full holder). That's too bad as I would have bought one and trimmed it like you did. Thanks!

[@TheBooban]

@@TooManyGadgets Seriously considering installing it "backwards". As long as there is enough space, I may be able to live with fumbling to recharge the battery twice a year. Or I will be furiously cursing twice a year and regret this the rest of my life.

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi Lars, Yes you can do that. The cloth is glued to the roll so it can be removed and replaced with your own. Not the easiest of tasks, but should definitely be possible. I show the glued part in the longer video I made a few months back.

Hey mate, wanting some blinds but need to modify them to fit so of course watched this many times. I have a question though: Around 1:39, you mark 4cm in from the top, then 4cm in at the bottom, but if the bottom is already 1cm shorter than the top, why would you not measure 3cm to make 4cm in total? Do you understand my question? Thanks and hope you can understand and help!

[@TooManyGadgets]

Hi Oli - to make it consistant you need to remove the same everywhere - unless there is a specific reason that you need something else :)

[@olibarber2232]

@@TooManyGadgets hi mate. I bought my Fyrtur a few days ago and fitted the other day. My old blinds sat in a window recess and that’s where I would have had to cut the blinds, but with these I have just fixed them to the wall over the window rather than in the recess and they look great!

[@weedfreer]

is it not possible to take the entire blind material off of the top roller then? I wondered whether it was sold into the roller similar to how the bottom part came off or whether IKEA have glued it to the roller instead. Nice vid by the way 😉

@@TooManyGadgets oooo... will definitely check in to your channel for that one. I guess it's easy enough to strip the end back and remove to leave it looking like the 'stock' end of the system right?

Next time use a mitersaw instead of the handsaw. Its just thin alu its made from. But you have carbid teath on the mitersaw. It will easyly make a nice cut in it.

[@TooManyGadgets]

P M Thanks for that advice 👍

[@gibboireland]

Great video!!!! Would really be great if you were able to show how to make a wider version for wider windows, as I can imagine this would be super tricky....

[@TooManyGadgets]

Thanks gibireland. I don’t have a window where a larger version would be needed. And agree it would be tricky. You would need two and a longer inner tube of equal size, and off course a new wider drape. Kind of expensive I imagine since you would need to cut the motor part of the second one that extends it, cause I guess it impossible to find a separate matching housing that can extend the original.

[@gibboireland]

Martin Hyldahl Knudsen thanks for the comment. Yeah what I worry about is that the motor wouldn’t be strong enough for a wider and heavier blind. Really great video, you’ve given me the courage to try it for my small windows at least. Thanks again!

[@TooManyGadgets]

gibireland no problem. I actually don’t think that the motor would be underpowered as long as you succeed with keeping the extended tube perfectly straight. If it tilts down or upwards then I fear the motor would struggle. Problem number two would be the aesthetic of coupling the two units seem less together. If you do proceed with this endeavor , do let us know how it turns out 😎

[@SxWerks]

I guess you could buy two of the longer units and splice then together. You can buy the wider fabric separately and glue it on the roller. I have two 240cm openings that I would love to use these blinds on.

[@markusvehmanen]

Hi, why do you figure two separate units would be needed? I too would need this for a wider window. Finding a longer tube and fabric probably wouldn't be too difficult and even the other end could probably be mounted somehow so that the tube would sit and roll fine. But the main problem would be aesthetic as you said. With the housing mainly. Extending that is impossible I think and then when the battery (and something else?) sits in the housing itself, you would need some heavy modification / building some new housing for the whole thing. Damn this sucks, I was so hoping this would solve my needs :)

It does stop but the original one won’t continue whereas when I press the up button on the modified one it will try to go up and the original one won’t even try. Any idea what this could be? Do you think one of the 5 or 6 positions is linked to the zero or something? Thanks :D
