Mark screw locations. Center an L-bracket
on each mark. Then mark where to drill the
pilot holes for the mounting screws.
➤
The top of the L-brackets should be 1"
below the height where you want the
top of the valance to be located.
➤
The rear of the L-brackets must be flush
against a flat mounting surface. Do not
mount L-brackets on curved molding.
IMPORTANT:
The tops of the L-brackets must align level after mounting.

Be sure you are drilling into a solid surface, not drywall.
➤
If drilling into drywall, use wall anchors. Follow the
instructions provided with the wall anchors.

Attach the L-brackets to the mounting surface. Use the 1½"
hex head screws provided with your order.
■
Check alignment. The tops of all L-brackets must be aligned
and level.

Mark screw locations for attaching the valance headboard.
Position the valance headboard on top of the L-brackets
with its ends aligned with the end marks and the back
against the wall.
➤
The hook-and-loop material faces front and the staples
on the headboard face down.
➤
Mark the bottom of the headboard (the side with the
staples) through the front and rear slotted holes on the
center of the L-brackets.
