Stacking Design
■
■
Determine which vertical cellular stacking design you are installing: left
stack or right stack.
■
■
If a sliding glass door opens from the right side, a left stack design is best. If
the door opens from the left side, a right stack design is best.
Valance Types
■
■
Determine the type of valance you are installing with your shade: aluminum or traditional.
Installation Brackets Required
■
■
The number of installation brackets required varies with headrail width, as shown

Mount the Installation Brackets
■
■
Center the headrail over the window opening at
the desired height. Use a pencil to lightly mark
each end of the headrail.
■
➤
Alternatively, measure the width of the
headrail and use that width to mark the
headrail end points.
■
■
Mark end bracket locations 8" in from each end of the headrail.
■
➤
Mark the locations of any additional brackets, spaced evenly between the two end brackets. Mount into wood whenever possible.
