HI all,
I recently made up a Roman on a Hallis Hudson concealed rotary blind headrail (profile), the first time I have bought one from them. In the past I have used Merrick & Day's Deluxe Rotary Chain headrails and this one looked to be exactly the same (but considerably less expensive!)
However, it seems to take a lot more pulls to raise and lower the blind than the M&D ones, the chain loop will go round the mechanism more than once in each operation, meaning that you can't use a joiner. I'm guessing that this is either something do do with the chain gear or the turning rod but without either blind here I can't investigate! I have used both types for one customer and they also noticed this, but aren't concerned (fortunately!). But I wondered if anyone else has had a similar experience and knows why this is, and whether there is a way round it or if it's just down to differences in the headrail that aren't obvious to the naked eye!
Thanks
Sue
