The reason for this is that 60\u2019s local authority housing constructors specified a lot of concrete for lintels above windows which can prove difficult to drill into unless an SDS drill is used with variable hammer settings. Handheld drills just don\u2019t have the power in the hammer setting to drill into concrete and quite often you will see strips of plywood stuck above a window, and the curtain pole or blind is screwed to that piece of wood. Using an SDS drill it\u2019s a lot easier to get a decent fixing drilled in these circumstances, if you have UPVc windows with fascias all around then these can be screwed into if necessary, however I try to fix elsewhere if at all possible.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-3{margin-top:10px!important;margin-bottom:15px!important;}}@media only screen and (max-width:640px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-3{margin-top:10px!important;margin-bottom:10px!important;}}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-five\" style=\"margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:15px;\"><h5 class=\"title-heading-center\" style=\"margin:0;color:#000000;\">Time guide<\/h5><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\" style=\"text-align:center;transform:translate3d(0,0,0);\"><p>The longer the blind or curtain pole the more time consuming as a rule, a single blind fitting can take 20-45 minutes but as mentioned previously if there\u2019s any concrete to fix into then the time to complete the job can increase further.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-0{width:100% !important;margin-top : 0px;margin-bottom : 20px;}.fusion-builder-column-0 > .fusion-column-wrapper {padding-top : 0px !important;padding-right : 0px !important;margin-right : 1.92%;padding-bottom : 0px !important;padding-left : 0px !important;margin-left : 1.92%;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-0{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-0 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}@media only screen and (max-width:640px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-0{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-0 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}<\/style><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-flex-container.fusion-builder-row-1{ padding-top : 0px;margin-top : 0px;padding-right : 0px;padding-bottom : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;padding-left : 0px;}<\/style><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":574,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-695","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/695","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=695"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/695\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":718,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/695\/revisions\/718"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/574"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/clientdemoweb.com\/handymanbromley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=695"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
