Setup & Installation

Installation requires careful attention to detail to ensure proper function and safety. It is recommended to have at least two people for assembly due to the weight and size of the components.

1. Prepare the Pergola: Ensure your Mirador 111S or 111DA series pergola is fully assembled and stable. Identify the side where the pull-down screen will be installed.
2. Attach Top Rail: Secure the top rail of the screen assembly to the pergola frame using the provided hardware. Ensure it is level and firmly attached.
3. Install Side Rails: Mount the vertical side rails to the pergola posts. These rails guide the screen and provide stability.
4. Insert Screen Assembly: Carefully slide the screen assembly into the installed top and side rails. Ensure the screen fabric is properly aligned within the tracks.
5. Secure Bottom Bar: Attach the bottom bar of the screen to the side rails, allowing for smooth vertical movement.
6. Final Adjustments: Test the screen's movement. Adjust tension or alignment as needed to ensure it glides smoothly up and down and locks securely at desired positions.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance will prolong the life and appearance of your pull-down screen.

• Cleaning: Clean the Textilene fabric with mild soap and water. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub away dirt and debris. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to air dry completely before retracting.
• Frame Care: Wipe down the aluminum frame with a damp cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
• Track Inspection: Periodically inspect the side rails and roller mechanism for any obstructions or signs of wear. Keep the tracks clear of leaves, dirt, or other debris to ensure smooth operation.
• Winter Storage: In areas with harsh winter conditions, it is recommended to keep the screen fully retracted or consider removing it for storage to protect it from extreme weather.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your pull-down screen, refer to the following common solutions:

• Screen not retracting/extending smoothly: Check the side rails for any obstructions (e.g., dirt, leaves, small objects). Ensure the fabric is not caught or wrinkled. Clean the tracks if necessary.
• Screen not staying at desired height: The locking mechanism might be dirty or worn. Ensure the handle is fully released to engage the lock. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
• Damage to fabric: Small tears or holes in the Textilene fabric may be repairable with a patch kit. For significant damage, replacement of the screen fabric may be necessary.
