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.

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.

Mounting the Brackets
Check to make sure the circles are
level & aligned with each other.
Remove mounting plate and center
it inside of the circle outline on wall.
Mark the screw hole locations for all
brackets. See Figure B.
Attach the metal mounting plate to
the ceiling, aligning the holes in the
plate with the marks made in the pre-
vious step, see Figure B. Be sure and
attach the plate to the ceiling with
the appropriate mounting hardware.
(It is always recommended to try and
attach to the ceiling joists found in-
side ceiling. Where this is not possi-
ble please use an anchor 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 portion of
the bracket to the mounting base
until it is tight and the open side of
bracket faces horizontally and the
same direction on all. See Figure C.

Mounting the Brackets
Place the panel on the left rod. Hold it up to
the spot you wish to install it making sure
there is enough spacing from wall to where
the back of drapery will hit. Usually about
2” away from wall or window. After you’ve
located the ideal location, use a pencil to
mark the ceiling where the back of the rod
is resting. Repeat on right side.
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 posi-
tioned; if you’re using a center bracket,note
the middle point between 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 on the wall since you will need to
add a bracket at that point as well. Meas-
ure 2” inward from the marks you’ve made
on both ends and mark those spots. This is
where the brackets will be installed.
Place ceiling brackets level against ceil-
ing at the marked spots. Using a pencil,
lightly draw a circle around the base of
the brackets onto ceiling, see Figure A.

Depending on your order, you may have
received a rod connector.
A rod connector is the short piece of met-
al tubing placed inside each end of the
rods in a multi-segment system to join
them together.
STEP 3 - ATTACHING THE ROD CONNECTOR STEP 4 - ATTACHING THE FINIALS & RINGS
ROD CONNECTOR
STEP 2:
Now slide the second rod segment
over the exposed end of the connector,
making sure there is no gap between the
two segments.
STEP 1:
On the open end of one-rod segment,
slide the connector halfway inside,
leaving the other half exposed.
Insert the rod through the first bracket
and then place the required number
of rings on the rod but leave two rings
out. Then attach the elbow on the oth-
er end. All the rings should now be in
between the brackets and elbow; repeat
on the other side.
For split drapery, add a ring at each
end of the rod and then attach the
finial. This will prevent drapery to be
pulled all the way to one side or the
other when opening and closing it. If
you are opening your drapery only from
one side, leave one ring between the
finial and bracket on the side you won’t be
opening it from. See Below.
ATTACH FINIAL
PLACE ONE RING
BETWEEN FINIAL
AND BRACKET
For treatments using rings and do
not have a center support bracket
Attach the finial to one end of the rod,
and slide it through the first bracket.
Position the drapery panel on the rod,
and then slide it through the elbow.
Repeat on the other side.
For treatments without rings and no
center support bracket
Insert the rod through the end and
center support bracket. Before at-
taching the elbow, place half of the re-
quired number of rings on the rod but
leave two rings out. Then slide the rod
and attach the elbow. Go back to the
opposite side and take the rod out of
the end bracket to allow you to place
the remaining of the rings minus two
of them. All the rings should now be in
between the two end brackets, center
support bracket(s) & elbow. Repeat on
the other side. .
For split drapery, add a ring at one end
of the rod and then attach the finial. This
will prevent drapery to be pulled all the
way to one side or the other when opening
and closing it. If you are opening your
drapery only from one side, leave one
ring between the finial and bracket on
the side you won’t be opening it from.
For treatments using rings and have
a center support bracket
Attach the finial to one end of the rod
and slide it through the first bracket.
Position one of the drapery panels on
the rod, and then slide the rod through
the center support bracket. Position the
other drapery panel on the rod, and then
slide the rod through the elbow. Repeat
on the other side.

Baton/Wand (optional)
After your hardware is installed, attach
the baton to the eyelet of the first ring
by the clip.
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.
