Simple. Smart. Custom.
OUTSIDE MOUNT
1.
Measure 2”- 4” in from each side of the window frame. From here, measure
upward another 2” - 4”, and make a pencil mark.
NOTE:
Leave marks for any additional brackets you need, evenly spaced between
your first two marks and at the same height. If using your own screws instead of
those provided, be sure to pre-drill a small hole with a 5/64” drill bit before the final
screws go in to attach brackets.
2.
Center the top edge of the brackets on your marks. With your pencil, mark
through the back holes of the bracket. This is where your screws will go.
3.
Align each bracket with your screw holes and drill the screws securely into place.
*If you are using wall anchors, pre-drill with a 1/4” bit instead, and tap the wall
anchors into the holes with a hammer before drilling in the screws.
2” - 4”
INSIDE AND OUTSIDE MOUNT
1.
Slide the swing-arm of all the brackets to the right, so that they point
away from the window.
2.
Place the headrail onto the brackets so that the front edge of the
brackets fit under the inner front lip of the headrail. Slide the headrail
left and right until the shade is centered in or over the window.
3.
Hold the shade in position, and slide the swing-arms to the left on
all the brackets, until they latch onto the back lip of the headrail. The
shade is now installed!
ATTACHING THE SHADE

MOUNTING THE TENSION DEVICE
CONTINUOUS CORD LOOP SHADES
NOTE:
The cord tension device, also known as the “chain tensioner,” is used to
help protect pets and young children from a potential choking hazard. If there is
plastic or any protective bands on the chain, remove them before proceeding.
1.
Raise your shade fully so it’s out of the way.
2.
Pinch the ends of the tensioner together to release the grip on the chain, then
pull the tensioner to the bottom of the chain loop.
3.
While keeping the chain pulled tightly, place the tensioner against the inside
of the window or on the wall, moving it up about 1/8 of an inch. The goal is to
make the chain taut but just slightly loose for smooth operation.
4.
Holding the tensioner in place, mark the two screw holes with your pencil.
Move the chain away and use the marks to pre-drill your screw holes with a
5/64” drill bit.
5.
Align the holes in the tensioner with the pre-drilled holes and fasten the
screws, being careful NOT to over-tighten the screws.
6.
To use your shade, simply pull the front of the chain to raise it, and pull the
back of the chain to lower it.
