Installation Overview
■ Your order will include four Installation brackets per shade, either standard installation
brackets, optional swivel brackets, or end mount brackets.
➤ Optional swivel brackets can be used with inside mounted shades only.
■ Installation brackets are required for both the headrail and the bottom rail, so they are
mounted at the top and bottom of the window opening.
Mounting Types and Window Terminology
If the installation brackets are mounted correctly, the rest of the installation process follows very
easily. To prepare for this important first step, review the mounting types and basic window
terminology illustrated below.
