STANDARD FITTING

Wood Blinds Installation


Before fixing your Wood Blinds, check to ensure that the fixing surface is flat, level, and the mounting points are firm enough to take the brackets. Also make sure that the position chosen for the brackets will allow the blind to drop without being subject to any obstructions such as window handles. Mark, drill and plug as necessary the positions of the brackets.The box brackets should be fitted at either end of the head rail,so that they are slightly wider apart than the width of the headrail. The brackets can be top, side or face fitted.
On wider blinds you will have been supplied with center support brackets (Fig. 2) which can be top or face fitted. These should be equally spaced, but making sure that they will not coincide where there is a ladder braid/ tape on your blind. Open the “flap” of the box brackets (Fig. 1), slide the headrail of your blind into the brackets (also the center support brackets,where fitted). Lower the flap until it locks into position on the bottom of the bracket (Fig. 3).
Valance
The Dual- lock tabs are fastened to the fascia part of the valance. Remove the protective paper and press the valance firmly against the head rail. For final adjustments the Dual- lock will part easily to allow relocation. If necessary use a small screw-driver to praise apart the Dual-lock tabs, taking care not to damage the valance.

YOUR BLIND IS NOW READY FOR OPERATION.
