4. Installation
Before beginning installation, ensure you have the necessary tools: a drill, screwdriver, measuring tape, and pencil. The blinds can be installed using either an inside mount or an outside mount method.
4.1. Measuring Your Window
Accurate measurements are crucial for proper fit and function. Refer to the diagrams below for guidance.
4.2. Inside Mount Installation
For an inside mount, the blinds fit within the window frame. Take the minimum window width measurement. We recommend reducing the order width by 1/4 inch to ensure a proper fit. The window depth should be at least 2 inches.
- Measure the minimum window width at the top, middle, and bottom. Use the smallest measurement.
- Ensure your window depth is at least 2 inches.
- Mark the positions for the installation brackets inside the window frame.
- Drill pilot holes and secure the brackets with the provided screws.
- Carefully attach the roller shade unit to the installed brackets.
4.3. Outside Mount Installation
For an outside mount, the blinds are installed outside the window frame, typically on the wall. Take the maximum window width measurement. We recommend adding at least 4 inches to the window width for better light blockage.
- Measure the maximum window width.
- Mark the positions for the installation brackets on the wall above the window frame.
- Drill pilot holes and secure the brackets with the provided screws.
- Carefully attach the roller shade unit to the installed brackets.
