to the dimensions you specified. With the proper installation 
and care, it will provide you with many years of beauty and 
trouble-free use.
Please read all instructions before you start so you will be 
familiar with the overall process. 
Make sure you measure your window to ensure the fascia 
and shade will fit properly before beginning.

Getting Started

Remove the fascia and shade from the packaging. Keep the 
packaging until you have successfully installed the fascia and 
the shade.

TOOLS REQUIRED

FASTENER NOTES
For outside mount, it is best to attach the bracket to wood 
studs. If this is not possible, you will need to purchase special 
fasteners (see illustration below for examples).

Here are some HELPFUL TIPS: 
• If you are using a special fastener, make sure it is  

 

  designed to support the weight of the fascia and shade.    
  Follow the fastener manufacturer’s instructions carefully. 
• When drilling into drywall or plaster, use a fastener  

 

  designed for hollow wall applications (see illustration).
• When drilling into concrete, stone, brick, or tile, use  

 

  appropriate plugs, anchors, or screws (not included).
• When drilling into metal, the included screws are sufficient.
