STEP 1 - GETTING STARTED OVERVIEW
Before you begin, check the accompanying diagram to make sure you have all the parts you
need. You’ll need to make sure the surface you intend to install your hardware is sturdy enough
to accommodate the brackets. If you’re screwing directly into a surface this means locating
wood studs that are strong enough to securely bond with the included screws. Otherwise,
you’ll need to use a secure fastener (as illustrated) but please note this piece is not included.

be sure it’s designed to support the weight of the product being installed (if you’re not sure,
either give us a call or ask a professional at your local hardware store). Once obtained, follow
the fastener manufacturer’s instructions regarding proper installation.
TOOLS YOU WILL NEED TO INSTALL YOUR HARDWARE:
Pencil, screwdriver, ¼" nut driver, level, and a drill with a 764" drill bit.
Note: It’s important to monitor the amount of pressure you apply when using a drill. If the
screws are too tight this may cause the screw itself to break off in the wall or window frame.

Mounting the Brackets
1. Place the panel on the left rod.
To ensure it drapes at the correct
length, hold it up to the spot you
wish to install it; this will allow
you to raise or lower your treat-
ment as desired. After you’ve
located the ideal location, use
a pencil to mark the wall where
the top of the rod is resting.
Repeat on the other two sides.
2. Remove the panel from the rods
and then center the rods over the
window opening at the desired
height. Using the pencil, mark
where the ends of each rod are
positioned; if you’re using a center
bracket, note the middle point be-
tween these two spots as well. If you
have more than one center bracket
spread these evenly between the two
end brackets and center point. If you
have a spliced rod, mark where that
splice is as well since you will need
to add a bracket at that point as well.
3. Measure 2” inward from the marks
you’ve made on both ends and
mark those spots. This is where
the brackets will be installed.
4. Place brackets level against wall at
the marked spots. Using a pencil,
lightly draw a circle around the base
of the bracket onto wall, see Figure A.
Check to make sure the circles are
level & aligned with each other.
Mounting the Brackets
Remove mounting plate and center
it inside of the circle outline on
wall. Mark the screw hole loca-
tions for all brackets. See Figure B.
Attach the metal mounting plate to
the wall, aligning the holes in the
plate with the marks made in the
previous step, see Figure B.
Be sure and attach the plate to the
wall with the appropriate mounting
hardware. (It is always recommend-
ed to try and attach to the wood
studs inside the wall. Where this is
not possible please use a wall an-
chor suitable to carry the weight of
your hardware selection as well as
your draperies and any accessories.)
If using plastic expansion anchors,
pre-drill holes using 3/16" drill bit. If
drilling directly into a stud or wood
trim, pre-drill holes with 3/32" drill bit.
Screw on the decorative por-
tion of the bracket to the mount-
ing base until it is tight and the
open side of bracket faces up to
the ceiling. If the cup does not
end facing up, loosen the base
screw to adjust & tighten back up.
Repeat these steps for all brackets.

Continue by attaching the middle rod to the
elbow on the left side (3) and tightening the
set screw on the elbow. Place the required
number of rings on the rod, and then cap the
opposite end with the other elbow and attach
it using the set screw (4).
When placing the rod on the bracket, if
drapery is opening from the center, leave one
ring between the finial/elbow and bracket on
eachside. Ifthedraperyisopeningfromone
side only, put the ring between the finial/
elbow and the bracket on the opposite side
of where you are opening from (2).This
will prevent drapery to be pulled all the
way to one side or the other when opening
and closing it.
Attach the finial to one end of the 3rd rod
by sliding it on and attaching it using the set
screw (5). Place the required number of rings
on the rod, and then cap the opposite end
with the elbow attached to the middle rod
and attach it using the set screw.
When placing the rod on the bracket, if dra-
pery is opening from the center, leave one
ring between the finial/elbow and bracket
on each side. If the drapery is opening from
one side only, put the ring between the finial/
elbow and the bracket on the opposite side of
where you are opening from (2).This will pre-
vent drapery to be pulled all the way to one
side or the other when opening and closing it.
For treatments without rings
Attach the finial to one end of the rod by
sliding it on and attaching it using the set
screw (1).Position the drapery panels on
rod, and then cap the opposite end with
the elbow (3).
Position the drapery panels on the middle
rod, and then cap the Left end with the elbow
attached to the left rod using the set screw on
the elbow (3).
Attach the finial to one end of the 3rd rod
by sliding it on and attaching it using the set
screw (5). Position the drapery panels on
rod, and then cap the opposite end with the
elbow on the middle rod using the set screw
on the elbow.
For treatments using rings
Attach the finial to one end of the rod by
sliding it on and attaching it using the set
screw (1).
Place the required number of rings on the
rod, and then cap the opposite end with the
elbow and attach it using the set screw. When
placing the rod on the bracket, if Drapery is
opening from the center, leave one ring be-
tween the finial/elbow and bracket on each
side. If the drapery is opening from one side
only, put the ring between the finial/elbow
and the bracket on the opposite side of where
you are opening from (2).This will prevent
drapery to be pulled all the way to one side or
the other when opening and closing it.
Depending on your order, you may
have received a rod connector. A rod
connector is the short piece of metal
tubing placed inside each end of the
rods in a multi-segment system to join
them together.

After your hardware is installed, attach
the baton to the eyelet of the first ring

Tiebacks (optional)
BALL TIEBACK
STEP 1
In order to locate where to install your
tiebacks, measure the height of the
window and divide this by two. Using
the previous calculation, mark that
spot on the wall with a pencil.
To ensure you like the way the panel
drapes, gather one side and sweep
it over to the approximate proposed
location. Once you’re sure the tieback
is in the perfect location, use your
pencil to mark the spot to install it.
Measure the distance from the bottom
or top of the window to the tieback to
mark the other side and ensure they’re
even.
Now hold the tieback hardware on the
wall at the desired location and rest
a level above it, adjusting it until it’s
straight.
STEP 2
Place tieback level against wall in
desired locations and attach to the wall.

tightening the bracket set screw with
the allen wrench provided.
Please note: If your rod set comes with
bypass center support brackets these
do not have a set screw. Just rest the rod
on the bracket for support.
