Double check drapery height, drapery width, and track length before beginning your installation. Ensure your drapery fits the

track and also the floor to ceiling distance (be aware in recessed pocket applicatons the pin setting will be “under mount”).

The width of your panels should be large enough to cover the length of your track plus any return distance, plus any overlap in
the case of a center draw application.

1. CAREFULLY DETERMINE EXTRUSION PLACEMENT

Figure 2

1. Recessed Pocket DRAPERY TRACK INSTALLATION

Determine the location where you would like the extrusion and

track installed. Be sure the determined location can be installed

onto without damaging the structural integrity of the joist. Be sure

to leave appropriate spacing for the drywall to slide on the ceiling

side of the extrusion’s lip.

Be aware that some advertised drapery heights are not precise. To

verify correctness (and enlable proper extrusion mounting height) ,

back-calculate the floor to ceiling (FC) height by adding the drapery

height (DH), bottom clearance (BC), and track exposure (TE). See

Figure 2.

Minimum track exposure for under mount applications is 1.25”.

Recommended bottom clearance is 0.5” to 1”.

FC = DH + TE + BC

If using hardwire power over CAT cable, and you are planning to run the cable through the ceiling, before installing the extrusion

permanently drill a hole in the lip of the extrusion on the motor end for the CAT cable to be run through. Be sure to run the CAT

cable before installing ceiling drywall.
