Install the Channels
■Using the outline on the template, determine where to mount the side channel.
➤If your shade is PowerView®(battery pack/DC power supply), the minimum mounting
depth for flush mount is 2
1
⁄ 2 ". Trim the template at the dotted line prior to use.
➤If your shade is PowerView (battery wand — high and low mount), the minimum
mounting depth for flush mount is 3".
■Place the template at the bottom of the left side jamb
and mark the rear edge of the template on the jamb.
➤This mark represents the rear edge of the mounting
channel.
■Repeat this step for the top of the left jamb.
■Repeat above steps for the right jamb.
■Using the template, mark the location for the installation brackets on the head jamb.
➤Place the template in the top left corner of the window opening.
➤Line up the back edge of the template with the mark
previously made on the side jamb.
➤Mark the center hole, if depth permits.
➤Repeat for the right side.
➤If more than two installation brackets came with your
order, space additional bracket(s) evenly between the
two end brackets and mark their location.

■Measure and mark the middle groove on each mounting
channel starting at 2" from each end and make additional
marks located approximately 18" apart.
■Drill the screw holes in the mounting channels using a
5
⁄ 32 " drill bit.
■Test fit the left mounting channel into the window
opening.
➤If the gap is greater than
1
⁄ 16 ", select the proper
combination of top and bottom end caps to minimize
the gap.
NOTE: D-seal on the top of the top end caps can be effective in reducing light gaps.
➤Attach the end caps as shown and test fit to ensure a snug fit.

■Place the mounting channel in the window opening, lining up the rear of the mounting
channel to the marks previously made on the side jambs.
■Attach the mounting channel using the screws provided.
Pre-drill holes with a

NOTE: D-seal on the back of the mounting channels
can be effective in reducing light gaps.
■Repeat for opposite side.
■Remove the protective liner from the front and the rear channels.
■Snap the rear channel onto the mounting channel, starting at the bottom and working up
to the top. Use a mallet if necessary.

INSTALLATION

■Reach behind the rear channel and make sure there is
no gap between the rear channel and the mounting
channel.
■Repeat for opposite side.
Install the Brackets
■Your order will include the correct number of installation brackets for your shade width, as
shown in the table.
■Install the installation brackets.
➤Drill the screw holes already marked on the head jamb using a
3
⁄ 32 " drill bit.
■Use a level to check that the mounting surface is level. Shim the brackets if necessary.
■Attach the installation brackets using the screws
provided.
IMPORTANT: The back edges of the installation
brackets should line up with the back of the rear
channel. If the brackets are closer to the window,
move them forward.
IMPORTANT: The front edges of the installation
brackets must be level and aligned. If mounting to a
heavily textured surface, shim the brackets, if needed.
