➀ Inspect all boxes to make sure you have received the proper shades & parts.
➁ Open cartons lengthwise.
➂ All brackets, fascia, headboxes, pockets, wall clips, and other hardware must be
installed level. Shades must be level and square.
➃ Please follow installation guidelines carefully. Failure to do so invalidates warranty.

➀ Mark wall, jamb or ceiling for placement of mounting brackets.
➁ Drill small starter hole (if necessary) in mounting surface.
➂ Mount brackets using appropriate fasteners for surface (see Fig. 1 for bracket/
endcap types).
