Unwrap the blind. Do not untie cord at this time. Hold the blind against 
the window to determine the proper placement. It will either fit inside 
the window casing (inside mount) or outside the window casing (outside 
mount). This will determine where and how your installation brackets 
should be attached.

Inside Mount:

 Make certain the headrail is level and clear of obstructions. 

Make pencil marks 

V

" below the headrail on each end. The bottom of the 

installation brackets will be placed on these marks.

Outside Mount: 

Hold the blind level and center against the window casing 

or wall. Mark the casing or wall with a pencil just below the headrail on 
each end. Also mark the window casing or wall 

V

headrail. The installation brackets will be placed on these marks.
