Classic Collection Installation Instructions 4

     

BACK

Optional Extension Brackets 

Extension brackets can be used on outside mounts to project the 

installation brackets from 2 3/4” to 4 1/8” from the mounting surface. 

This allows additional clearance of obstructions such as window 

cranks or handles. 

•  The extension brackets may be fastened together two different 

ways to produce the desired wall extension as shown.

•  Attach the extension brackets using the nut and bolts sent. 

•  Mount the extension bracket assemblies to the window frame or 

wall using two diagonally located screws. 

•  Use the appropriate fasteners to bolt the mounting brackets to the 

extension brackets.

Wand TIlter 

.006 gauge blind wands are provided with a clip on wand tilter 

that simply “snaps” onto the wand tilter.

• 

Grasp wand tip between forefinger and thumb.

•  Rotate the tilter until the hole is horizontal with the slats and 

push wand into hole on the tilter as shown.

 .008 gauge blind wands are provided with a plastic sleeve and 

metal hook. 

•  Remove the plastic sleeve by pulling upward. The hook on 

the wand will be in an open position. 

•  Slide the plastic sleeve removed from the wand over the 

metal shaft of the tilter until the hole is exposed. 

•  Holding the sleeve above the hole, pull the wand hook 

through the shaft hole until it rests in the bend of the hook.

•  Slide the plastic sleeve back down over the hook until it is 

back in the closed position. 

Nut & Bolts

Optional Hold-Down Brackets

Plastic Hold-Down Brackets

•  Attach the hold-down brackets to the jamb, sill or outside 

mounting surface. When the blind is fully lowered, the pin on 

the hold-down must align with the center of the bottom rail 

end caps.

•  Insert the pin on the hold-down brackets into the end caps to 

secure the bottom rail. A hole may need to be punched in the 

end cap to accept the pin in the hold-down.

Metal Hold-Down Brackets

•  Insert a hold-down pin into each of the bottom rail end caps. 

•  Attach the hold-down bracket to the jamb, sill or outside 

mounting surface. When the blind is fully lowered, the hold in 

the hold-down brackets must align with the pins in the bottom 

rail end cap. 

•  Insert the pins into the holes in the hold down brackets.
