Use the 1¼" (installation bracket) or 1½" (extension bracket) hex head screws provided
with your order.
■
The tops of all brackets must be aligned and level.
■
If using extension brackets, attach an installation brackets to the
underside of each extension brackets using the provided ½" flat
head screws and speed nuts, as shown.
➤
Due to the weight of the shade, a maximum projection of 1"
is recommended.

Proceed to “Install the Shade” — page 8.
Mount Installation Brackets — Outside Mount with Optional Valance
With the optional valance, first the valance headboard is mounted and then the installation
brackets are mounted to the wall or molding under the headboard.
■
Mark where the ends of the valance headboard will be located. Center the headboard above
the window opening at the height to allow enough room for the shade to be mounted below.
Use a pencil to lightly mark where its ends are located.
➤
Alternatively, measure the width of the valance headboard and use this measurement to
determine where the ends of the headboard will be located.
➤
Mark L-bracket locations. Use a pencil to lightly mark 3" in from each valance
headboard end location. If more than two L-brackets came with your order, make
additional marks to space the other bracket(s) evenly between the two end brackets.
With two-piece headboards (valances over 96" wide), the two equal-width sections abut
in the center. Space brackets 3" in from the ends of each section and evenly in-
between.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to place a bracket on each side of the center split.
