INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION
Installation Brackets Required
 The number of installation brackets required varies with headrail width, as shown
in the table.
Installation Overview
Installation of Vertical Celullar shades varies based on the shade mounting type, stacking design, and the valance type selected.
Mounting Types and Window Terminology
 Review the mounting types and basic window terminology illustrated below. Determine if your shade is an outside mount or
inside mount. For ceiling mount applications, refer to the inside mount instructions.
Stacking Design
 Determine which Vertiglide stacking design you are installing: left stack or
right stack.
 If a sliding glass door opens from the right side, a left stack design is best. If
the door opens from the left side, a right stack design is best.
NOTE: A left stack design is shown throughout these instructions.
Procedures for a right stack design are the same but at opposite sides of
the fabric stack and headrail.
Next Step
 Refer to the page below based on your shade mounting type:
 Outside Mount — Below
 Inside/Ceiling Mount — Page 6
Outside Mount
Mount the Installation Brackets
 Center the headrail over the window opening
at the desired height. Use a pencil to mark
each end of the headrail. (On the stacking side,
the end of the white gearbox counts as the
end of the headrail.)
 Alternatively, measure the width of the
headrail and use that width to mark the
headrail end points.
 Mark end bracket locations 8" in from each end of the headrail.
 Mark the locations of any additional brackets, spaced evenly between the two end brackets. Mount into wood whenever possible.

Set Cord Tension
 Unwrap the cord from the orange cord organizer.
 Remove any twists by running a finger between the two cords.
 Note that both ends of the cords are tied to washers to prevent the cords from slipping into the vertical rail.
 Study the cording diagram below. The cords are connected to the end plate that is opposite the fabric stack. (In the illustration,
the two cords are shaded differently to make the routing easier to follow.)
 One of the washers is anchored to the end plate in the middle slot. The cord is routed under the end plate and into the slot
so that the washer is on the inside of the end plate, as shown.
 The washer on the other cord is trimmed off and the end is tied to the cord tensioner. Then that cord is looped around the
“T” near the front of the end plate.
IMPORTANT: The top of the looped cord must be the portion of the cord coming from the cord tensioner.

 Position the cords.
 From the outside of the end plate, place the washer on the end of one cord behind the slot in the middle of the end plate, so
that the cord fits into the slot. Pull the cord taut to seat the washer.
 Cut the knot from the end of the other cord and tie the cord to the cord tensioner using a square knot. (There are two cord
tensioners in the headrail; one is a spare.) Trim the end of the cord to about
1
⁄ 2 ".
 Loop the cord from the tensioner around the “T” near the front of the end plate. The top of the loop must be the cord from
the cord tensioner. Be sure the cord is not twisted.
 Remove slack from the cord by moving the cord tensioner away from the end plate it is looped around.
 If the tensioner must be moved more than one-third of the headrail width away from its end plate to remove slack, re-tie the
knot and trim the excess cord.
 Do not put tension on the cord at this time. Just remove the slack.

An innovative feature of Kirsch®Cellular Shades Vertical Cellular Automation is dual operation: the shade can be operated either
motorized or manually. The drive belt automatically disengages aer each motorized use, allowing the shade to be traversed
manually. When the remote is used, the drive belt automatically re-engages for motorized operation.
With dual operation, the automation app can be used for precise positioning of the shade. The App knows the position of the
shade when the motor re-engages, so if the shade has been moved manually, the App positions the shade correctly.

the bottom lip of the headrail.
 Rotate the valance clip up to snap it into place
on the top of the headrail.
 Keep a minimum of 3" between the end of the
headrail and the valance clips.
