Getting Started

SCREWS
STEP 1 — PARTS & TOOLS
WALLBOARD OR PLASTER: Hollow wall applications: Use a secure fastener designed
specically for this purpose.
METAL: Prepare by pre-drilling holes and then using the included screws.
CONCRETE, STONE, BRICK OR TILE: Use a masonry drill and surface-specic plugs, anchors, or
screws. When selecting a fastener 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.

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.

STEP 2 — ATTACHING YOUR BRACKETS
Attaching the Brackets
Note the ordered width of your valance.
Extend a tape measure out to this
dimension. Center over the window,
and place a mark at zero and the width
dimension. Place the outside edge of
each mounting bracket at the desired
height and on these marks. Attach with
the screws provided. Center support is
included with wider valances only.
STEP 3 — ATTACHING THE VALANCE TO THE ROD
Attaching the Valance
to the Rod
Start at one end of the rod. Insert the
rod into the pocket in the top of the
valance. Slide the valance completely
onto the rod.
STEP 4 — MOUNTING THE ROD AND VALANCE
Mounting the Rod
and Valance
Engage the holes in the top of the rod
onto the post on the brackets. Lower
the rod down onto the brackets to
lock into place.
For valances with a center support
bracket feed bracket through pre-slit
button hole to cradle the rod.
