Mount the Brackets
Mounting Options
The installation brackets may be inside mounted, outside mounted or ceiling
mounted. In all cases, level mounting is essential.
• With inside mounts and ceiling mounts, use a carpenter’s level to check
that the mounting surface is level. Shim the brackets, if necessary.
• With outside mounts, the tops of the brackets must be level and aligned
at the same height.
• Intermediate brackets are required for both inside and outside mounts if
the blind is over 48" wide (see chart below).
Inside Mount Applications
Attach the two end brackets flush against the sides of the window casement.
• Side mount the brackets with one screw through a side hole and one
screw through a top hole, as shown below.
• Top mount the brackets with screws through the two top holes.
• If limited mounting depth is available, the bracket may be mounted with
two screws through diagonal side holes.

Outside Mount Applications
A flat vertical surface at least 13/4" high is required for bracket attachment.
Mark End Bracket Locations
• Mark where ends of headrail will be located.
• Either hold headrail up to the mounting
surface or measure the headrail
and mark its length.
• Then mark
1/4" to
the outside of the
headrail end marks.
Attach End Brackets
• Align the outside edge of each
bracket with the outer marks.
• The tops of brackets must be
aligned at the same height.
• Attach the brackets with two
screws through diagonal holes.
Intermediate Brackets (If Required)
Evenly space the intermediate bracket(s)
between the end brackets.
• Adjust spacing if needed to avoid
interference with internal headrail
mechanisms.
• The top of each intermediate bracket must
align with the tops of the end brackets.
• Attach the bracket(s) with two screws
through diagonal holes.
Extension Brackets (Optional)
Attach 2" or 4" extension brackets to the mounting surface in the same
locations where the end brackets and intermediate brackets would be
attached.
• Align and level extension brackets with a carpenter's level.
• Use two screws to mount each extension bracket.
• Attach the installation brackets to the extension brackets using the screws
and nuts provided, as shown below.
Intermediate Brackets (If Required)
Evenly space the intermediate bracket(s) between the
two end brackets. A minimum depth of 11/8" is
required for bracket attachment.
• Adjust spacing if needed to avoid
interference with internal headrail
mechanisms.
• Attach with two screws through
diagonal holes.
• The backs of the end brackets
and intermediate bracket(s)
must align.

Ceiling Mount Applications
As with outside mounts, mark where to attach the two end brackets, 1/4" to
the outside of the ends of the headrail. Attach the bracket in one of three
ways, making sure their front edges are aligned.
• Attach with two screws through the bracket top holes. Or:
• If the brackets are flush with side walls, attach them like inside mounts,
with one screw through a top hole and one through a side hole. Or:
