Hello
for some minor defects in our house construction, we received pleated blinds from the construction company, which they delivered to us through their subcontractor for windows.
the window installer simply took the construction measurements he recorded on site during the creation of the windows. unfortunately, this did not work out, the pleated blinds are all (4 pieces) each 3-4mm too wide. as a result, the pleated blinds no longer sit in the frame in front of the glass but rather in front of the windows. when you open the windows (all 4 are floor-to-ceiling patio windows), the pleated blind almost hits the wall (only the baseboard prevents it as a stopper).
today I saw the window installer passing by, so I called him over. he looked at it and said that it was normal. on the internet it always says that you should measure explicitly and precisely, and every millimeter counts.
what do you think, is this normal? see pictures in the attachment. (detailed pictures right/left without the pleated blind being moved)
the pleated blinds cost around €800 in total (which the construction company is paying).
