4.  Grab the shade mount from the SHA-B8CRxx shade mount kit.
5.  Like step 2 above, slide the slot in the SHA-B8CRxx shade mount up into 

the angled bracket already installed. When seated, the two mounts will form 

a 90° angle. See diagram to the right.

Install Mounts

Use instructions below to mount the shade corner mount assembly created in steps 1-5 above.

1.  Mark on the ceiling where the hanger bolt will be mounted. Ensure the center point of the mount is at least 1 

¾

 inch from any obstructions. 

Savant recommends using a laser level or similar technique to ensure the mount is installed in line with the opposite end idler type shade 

mount. As stated earlier in this document, the drive type shade mount should be installed before installing the idler side.

 

TIP!

 The tip below can be used to make the process of marking the ceiling easier.

a.  Mark on ceiling the location for one of the mounts. See the section above that describes the minimum distances allowed from any 

obstructions.

b.  Screw the mounting sleeve onto the hanger bolt until it hits the set screw in the 1 inch sleeve.
c.  Using a 

3/32

 inch hex key, turn the hex head set screw in the 1 inch mounting sleeve so the set screw is not protruding from either 

side of the sleeve. The shade mount sleeve should now easily slide in and out of the hole in the rear of the shade mount.

d.  Slide the hanger bolt/sleeve assembly into hole on top of one of the shade mounts. Repeat steps a, b, and c and slide a second 

hanger bolt assembly into hole in second shade mount of the shade mount corner assembly.

e.  Using the initial mark from step a, line the tip of one of the hanger bolts with the mark. Position the corner bracket appropriately 

and apply pressure to make indentations in the ceiling of where to install the hanger bolts.

2.  Remove the hanger bolt assemblies from the shade mounts. Unscrew the hanger bolt from the 1 inch sleeve. Set the 1 inch sleeves aside.

3.  Prepare the ceiling where the hanger bolts will be installed and install hanger bolts. Leave 

½

 inch of machine thread exposed.

 

HELPFUL:

 Savant recommends using a hanger bolt installation tool (8-32 thread) to thread the hanger bolt into the wall. DO NOT use the 

provided sleeve to drive hanger bolts into wall as damage to the sleeve will occur.

4.  If not already completed from step c above, using a 

3/32

 inch hex key, turn the hex head set screw in the 1 inch mounting sleeve so the set 

screw is not protruding from either side of the sleeve. At this point, the shade mount sleeve should easily slide in and out of the hole in the 

rear of the shade mount.

5.  Screw the mounting sleeve onto the installed hanger bolt until the hex 

head set screw in the sleeve is positioned slightly offset from the hole in 

the shade mount (see diagram to right). Leaving the set screw offset a 

bit will allow the shade mount to be pulled tight to the wall in the next 

few steps.

6.  Repeat step 5 for the second hanger bolt/sleeve assembly.
7.  Slide the holes in the shade mounts from the corner assembly over the 

sleeves until the set screws are visible through hole on side of each 
mount. With 

³/32

 inch hex key, turn the set screw counterclockwise to 

back off the set screw a bit until it rests within the hole on the side of 

the mount. This will pull the mount tight against the ceiling. See dia-

gram to right.

8.  Verify shade mounts are tight to the ceiling. If not, turn in the set screw, remove the shade mounts, and adjust the mounting sleeves to en-

sure the mount is pulled tight to the wall or ceiling.

1.  Grab the corner shade mount from the SHA-B8CLxx corner shade mount 

kit.

2.  Grab the 90° angled joiner bracket from either a SHA-B8CRxx or SHA-

B7CRxx corner shade mount kit.

HELPFUL!

 Angle brackets are supplied with only the SHA-B8CRxx and 

SHA-B7CRxx shade mount kits.

3.  Slide the joiner bracket into the slot in the shade mount. Slide bracket until 

it sits flush with the top of shade mount. See diagram to right.

The mounts in the SHA-B8CR, SHA-B8CL, SHA-B7CR, and SHA-B7CL kits are all corner shade mounts and utilize a 90° angled joiner bracket to 

join any two of these corner mounts. Once the shade mounts are joined together, they form a 90° angle that can be used in most inside or out-

side corners. The steps below describe how to join the shade mounts in the SHA-B8CLxx and SHA-B8CRxx shade mount kits but these instruc-

tions can be used to join any of the other corner type shade mounts.
