Step by Step Fitting Instructions

• Step 1

  If you’re fitting the blind outside the window recess ensure that measurement C in the diagram below is the same to ensure even window coverage.
  If you’re fitting the blind inside the recess you can top fix the brackets to the lintel or face fix the brackets to the window frame.

  

• Step 2 (option) - If Top Fixing

  If you’re fixing the bracket to the underside of the window recess, measure and mark the distance (D), allowing for obstructions like handles that protrude into the recess area. Position the brackets approx 5cm from the ends of where the headrail is to be positioned. If more than 2 brackets are supplied, fit the additional brackets at equal spacing across the length of the blind. Please ensure fixings are suitable for the wall/surface to which you are mounting the brackets.

  

• Step 2 (option) - If Face Fixing

  If you’re fixing the brackets to the face of the wall, or the window frame, position the brackets approximately 5cm from the ends of where the headrail is to be positioned. If more than 2 brackets are supplied, fit the additional brackets at equal spacing across the length of the blind. Please ensure fixings are suitable for the wall/surface to which you are mounting the brackets.

  

• Step 3 (option) - If Top Fixing

  Tilt and hook headrail into bracket at point (E). Rotate the headrail into position until it clicks. To release the headrail push the bracket at point (F) as shown in the diagram below.

  

• Step 3 - (option) - If Face Fixing
