Hanging blinds
Hi,
I was all set to hang some wooden slatted blinds in the bedroom the other day. I measured up to hang them from the top of the window recess (if that makes sense) as we already have curtains up and wanted the blinds for privacy. When I started drilling the holes, I drilled about 10mm into the plaster and hit what must be a metal strip. We live in a six year old house with uPVC glazing. What's this metal strip for, how thick is it and is it ok to drill through it in order to fit the blinds? Thanks in advance. J |
