3.
If any of the back-plate hole marks of Step (2) aligns with wall stud (use a stud finder to determine this), use only
a provided screw at that mark (do not use the anchor) when instructed to do so below.
4.
For marks that do not align with a stud, use both the anchor and the screw. To install an anchor, use a Phillips
screwdriver to engage the anchor and then position the anchor tip against the wall at one of the marks. Push the
anchor firmly into the wall as you rotate it clockwise. The anchor will drive itself into the wall like a large screw.
Continue rotating until the large flange of the anchor becomes even with the wall surface. Do not over-tighten.
5.
Return one of the back-plates to its mounting position so the holes align with either an installed anchor or a pencil
mark (if the mark happened to align with a stud). Use a screwdriver to secure a screw through each back-plate
hole and into either the installed anchor or the wall. Rotate the screw clockwise until tight. Repeat this step with
the other back-plates.
6.
Slide the brackets onto the back-plates and make sure they are aligned. Keep in mind the brackets includes
different thickness of bushings to fit either a large or small section of the rods at its proper placement.
7.
Carefully slide the rod assembly through each of the mounted brackets and extend the different rod sections as
necessary to position the rod evenly with respect to the window. Depending on how your drapes or curtains are
secured to the rod assembly (straps, rings, clips etc.), you may have to attach the drapes to the rod
simultaneously as you slide the rod assembly through each bracket.
8.
Use an Allen key to secure the set screw that located at each bracket to secure the rod in place.
9.
Attach a finial at each end of the rod assembly. Thread the stud of the finial with the threaded hole of the rod end
and rotate the finial clockwise with one hand while holding the rod firmly with your other hand. Hand-tighten only.
HANGING THE CURTAINS (Curtain is not included with this item):
Pole Pocket/Grommet Top Curtains

rods.
Drapery Hooks/Tie Top Curtains
– For drapes with drapery hooks or tie tops, hang each hook or tie each tie
directly onto the rods.
