3 Mark the Bracket Locations
For Outside Mount Installations:
Position the box brackets at each end of the headrail.
When using a single center support bracket, center it
between the box brackets. For more than one center
support bracket, space the support brackets evenly,
not more than 30” apart. Make sure the brackets will
not interfere with the cord mechanism or any other
internal parts. Mark the bracket for mounting hole
locations, making sure they are square and equally
spaced. Use a level to ensure each section of the
headrail is level.
For Inside Mount Installations:
Position the box brackets at each end of the headrail.
Depending on the installation location, box brackets
can be attached using the top, back, or side holes.
When using a single center support bracket, center it
between the box brackets. For more than one center
support bracket, space the support brackets evenly,
not more than 30” apart. Make sure the brackets will
not interfere with the cord mechanism or any other
parts. Mark the location of the desired bracket
mounting holes, making sure that they are square and
equally spaced.

5 Valance Installation
HOME DECOR’s inside mount 1/2” return valances come preassembled with metal valance clips.
Attach the loose plastic valance clips to the front of the headrail, one at each end. Space any
remaining clips evenly. Press the slot in the Valance against the bottom post of the Valance Clip
and rotate it upwards.
6 Blind Installation
Align the headrail with the center support and box brackets.
The headrail should have the tilt mechanism facing towards
the room. Be careful not to trap the top slat in the brackets
and slide the headrail straight back until it is snug in the
brackets. If the headrail can slide from side-to-side in the
box brackets, you can use a flat head screwdriver to bend
out the tabs on the end of the unit until it is snug.
Lower the front gate of each box bracket and press until the
locking tab clicks into place.
7 Attach Hold Down Brackets (If Needed)
To attach the hold down brackets to the shade, the installer
must drill a hole into the side of the bottom rail (drill bit should
be 3.99 mm in size.
For proper alignment. With the hold down brackets attached
to the bottom rail, lower the blind to the hold down bracket
mounting surface and mark the bracket locations.
Attach the hold down brackets at the bottom of the window or
door with the included screws as shown. To attach the bottom
rail, gently pull the brackets out slightly, and insert the pins into
the holes on the bottom rail of the blinds.
