Pocket Installation
The FlexShade Zip can also be installed in a pocket in the ceiling. You must
provide adequate clearance for removal of the Roller Assembly during
installation and maintenance.
The minimum depth of the ceiling pocket for the FlexShade Zip 92 is 4¾"
(120mm), and for the FlexShade Zip 127 is 6¼" (158mm). See Fig 13 below.
Alternate Mounting for Jamb Recessed
Installations (Zip 127 Angled Only)
If the system is installed in a recess, it is unlikely that there will be sufficient
space above the side channels to allow the Headbox to be mounted onto them.
In these instances follow the steps for preparing the system (See
Mount-
ing Headbox - Zip 127 Angled Headbox)
. Then mount the Headbox onto
the side channels and present the entire system into the opening. Hold the
system in position and use appropriate screws to fix the side channels in
place. Apart from this, the other steps should be followed as described.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Window covering products manufactured by Draper, when properly
installed, should require no operational maintenance or lubrication.
Most of Draper’s standard fabrics may be cleaned at the window by
vacuuming with a soft brush attachment. They may also be cleaned by using a
sponge or soft cloth and mild solution of warm soapy water. A dishwashing liq-
uid, such as Ivory liquid, is recommended. A clean dry cloth is recommended
for the metal finish.
Attaching Anti-Insect Brush Seals (Optional)
The FlexShade Zip has optional Anti-Insect Brush
Seals pre-installed along the width of the fascia.
There are also brush seals supplied for each of
the side channels that will need to be installed.
Remove the double-sided tape and apply to the
side channels as shown at right (Fig. 15).
