Strong double sided adhesive tape

Hi all.
We have recently had a couple of new windows fitted and now need to put the roller blinds back. What I don't want to do is screw the fittings into the actual frame nor can I fit the brackets to the reveals as they are plaster-boarded and hollow. Is there a double sided tape I could us that is strong enough to hold the brackets to the window frame as opposed to making holes.
Thanks in advance.

Don't use nano tape, I tried that to hold up an extension socket, it woke me up at 4 in the morning 2 days later.0

No. It might stay up for a while but pulling on the cord is eventually going to pull it off
Wht can't you use plasterboard fixings & secure it to the reveals?2 -
I've used scotch double-sided tape for a lot of heavy projects. It never failed me. You can buy it from Carbide and Diamond tooling and have it shipped to you.

Going to be a bit of a bodge job using double sided tape !!
