BASICS

A few simple tools are required:

n Measuring tape

n Power drill, drill bits

n Hex head and/or Phillips driver bit

n Pencil

Additional fasteners other than those sent with your

shade may be required depending on the mounting

surface. Wallboard and plaster require the use of

anchors such as expansion or toggle bolts. Brick, tile

or stone need special plugs and drill bits. Remember

to always pre-drill holes

in wood to avoid splitting.

Our Honeycomb shades are constructed to be hung

as either an inside mount or an outside mount. The

installation bracket can be mounted inside the window

opening, for an inside mount, or on the molding or

wall above the window for an outside mount. The

extension bracket and the hold down bracket are

optional items requested at the time of ordering the

shade. The extension bracket provides projection of

the installation bracket in order to clear obstructions.

The hold down bracket keeps the shade from swaying

and is often used for installation on door windows.

BRACKET INSTALLATION

Shades are shipped with the required number of

brackets for proper installation. End brackets

should be located with centerlines 2 1/2" in from

each end. Depending on the width of the shade,

additional brackets may be necessary—evenly

spaced between the two end brackets.

Use this number

For shade widths of: of brackets:

Up to 40" 2

40" to 72" 3

72" to 84" 4

84" and up 5

Using the installation bracket as a template, measure and

mark the center lines. When mounting brackets, make

sure they are in line and level.

The brackets are mounted flat against the top sill sur-

face. Place the bugle head screw through the hole

closest to the front of the bracket. To fully recess the

shade requires a flat surface with a minimum depth of

1 3/4". Shallow mounting requires 1/2" minimum.

INSIDE MOUNT

1 3/4"

2 1/2"

1st Installation

Cord Lock

2 1/2”

On shades 84" to 96" wide it is recommended to

use a second bracket located next to the end

bracket at the Cord Lock.
