CBM Vertical Blinds:
Your blind package contains brackets & screws for mounting the blind in any position on the window. The
package should display a label that specifies the corresponding room name and window opening number as well as the mount
option (inside/exact/outside).
Parts Included:
Installation brackets, valance return clips & installation screws.
1A - Inside Mount/Inside Window Frame Installation:
For inside mount vertical blinds, the groover valance must be installed
before installing the brackets. Use the holes on the valance to line it up on the window sill. Then position the brackets on the
mounting surface, approximately 6” from each end of the track, and at least 1-3/4” from the back of the window frame. Then mount
the bracket using one screw per bracket.
1B - Outside Mount/Outside Window Frame Installation:
For outside mount vertical blinds, the groover valance is installed after
installing the track and vanes. First, mark the position of the track. Clip one vane to a carrier and place track and vane over the open-
ing to be covered. Make sure to leave at least 1/2” clearance below the vanes. Then mark the position of the track. Second, mark the
position of the brackets. Make a mark 1/4” above the first mark (allowing room for the bracket head) for the brackets. We highly
recommend using a level for this step. Finally, mount the L-shaped brackets using two screws per bracket.
Note: When more than two brackets are supplied, position the additional brackets evenly between the two end brackets.
2. Fitting the track into brackets:
Insert the front panel of the bracket inside the top groove of the track. Then push the back up
till it snaps into the bracket.
