SelectBlinds Roller Shades Installation Guide

MOUNTING EXPOSED ROLL BRACKETS

EXPOSED ROLL - INSIDE MOUNT

1. At the top-right corner of the window, measure how deep you wish to place your bracket (at least 2" required) and make a mark with your pencil. Repeat this step at the top-left corner of the window, using the same depth measurement.
2. Set your bracket in the window so that the back edge aligns with your mark. Hold the bracket in position and use your pencil to mark through the top screw holes (TOP MOUNT) or the back screw holes (SIDE MOUNT). Repeat this step with your corresponding bracket on the opposite side of the window.
3. Pre-drill holes with a 5/64" drill bit at your previous marks on each side of the window.
4. Line up each bracket with the holes you drilled, and insert the screws. Once you have secured both brackets, you're ready to mount the shade into the window.

Diagram Description: A CROSS HOLE BRACKET is shown with labels for TOP, BACK, CROSS HOLE, and SLOTS. Mounting positions TOP MOUNT and SIDE MOUNT are illustrated.

EXPOSED ROLL - OUTSIDE MOUNT

The steps for mounting an exposed roll shade are the same, regardless of the bracket style you received.

1. At the top-left and top-right corners of the window, measure the height you wish to place your brackets (at least 2" required) and make a mark with your pencil.
2. Determine the difference in width between your shade and your window, and then divide it in half. From your previous marks, measure this distance away from the window, and make another mark with your pencil.
   EXAMPLE: If your window is 48" wide and your roller shade is 52", the difference is 4". This means we measure and mark 2" away from the window, starting at the previous marks.
3. Center the left-side bracket at the outermost mark as shown, and use your pencil to mark the screw holes. Repeat this step with your right-side bracket at the outer-left mark remain on the mounting surface.
4. Pre-drill the screw holes with a 5/64" drill bit at your marks on both sides of the window. Before you attach the brackets, you may want to erase any pencil marks that remain on the mounting surface.
5. Line up your left-side bracket with the screw holes, and insert two screws to secure the bracket to the mounting surface. Repeat this step for your right-side bracket. When both brackets are secure, you're ready to mount the shade into the window.

MOUNTING CASSETTE HEADRAIL BRACKETS

The roller shade tube is pre-installed in the cassette headrail, which simply snaps onto the provided hardware. You will receive two or more cassette brackets, depending on the width of your shade.

Diagram Description: Shows INSIDE MOUNT CASSETTE BRACKET with labels for TOP, FRONT LIP, RELEASE LIP, and SCREW HOLES. Also shows OUTSIDE MOUNT CASSETTE BRACKET with labels for TOP, FRONT, BACK, and SCREW HOLES.

CASSETTE HEADRAIL - INSIDE MOUNT

1. At the top corners of the window, measure inward and mark with your pencil 2" - 4" from each side. If you have additional brackets, make an additional mark for each one, evenly spaced between the outer marks.
2. Next, you'll need to measure how deep to place your brackets in the window. Starting at one of your marks, measure back at least 2", and make a mark with your pencil. If you want the front of the cassette to be flush with the wall, measure back 3 1/2" and make a mark. Repeat this step until you've marked the same depth measurement for each bracket.
3. Hold each bracket up to the ceiling or window frame so the release lip lines up with your mark. Mark the holes in each bracket, then use your pencil to mark where the screws will go. Repeat this step until you've marked the screw holes for each bracket.
4. Pre-drill the screw holes with a 5/64" drill bit at your marks for each bracket location. Before you mount the brackets, you may want to erase any pencil marks that remain on the wall or window.
5. Line up your first bracket with the screw holes, and insert two screws to secure the bracket to the mounting surface. Repeat this step for any remaining brackets. When all brackets are secure, you're ready to mount the shade into the window.

CASSETTE HEADRAIL - OUTSIDE MOUNT

1. At the top corners of the window, measure inward and mark with your pencil 2" - 4" from each side. If you have additional brackets, make an additional mark for each one, evenly spaced between the outer marks.
2. From one of these marks, measure upward and mark the height for the bracket placement. The minimum requirement is 1 1/2", but if you want the brackets to clear the top of the window, measure and mark at least 1 3/8" above your window. Repeat this until you've marked the same height measurement for each bracket.
3. Position a bracket so that the back is against your mounting surface, and the top is aligned with one of your upper marks. Hold the bracket in place and mark with your pencil where the screws will go. Repeat this until you've marked the screw holes for each bracket.
4. Pre-drill the screw holes with a 5/64" drill bit at your marks for each bracket location. Before you mount the brackets, you may want to erase any pencil marks that remain on the mounting surface.
5. Line up your first bracket with the screw holes, and insert two screws to secure the bracket to the mounting surface. Repeat this step for any remaining brackets. When all brackets are secure, you're ready to mount the shade into the window (see below).

EXPOSED ROLL

1. While holding the roller shade in your hands, put the pin end into the cross hole of the bracket.
2. Keeping the pin end secured in its bracket, insert the hooks on the motor head straight into the slots in the bracket. Once the three hooks are through the slots, gently pull down on the motor head until the hooks have locked securely to the bracket. The bottom of the motor head should point straight down.

CASSETTE HEADRAIL

1. Grab the cassette and hold it up to your brackets. Set the front edge of the headrail onto the front hook of each bracket. While in this position, you can slide the shade left or right until the cassette is centered.
2. When you're ready to secure the headrail, push the headrail upward until the back lip of each bracket snaps onto the back edge of the cassette. When the shade is installed, you may safely remove the bubble wrap around the roller.

CHAIN SAFETY SHIELD

Chain Safety Shields are used to ensure the smooth operation of your shade and to help protect children from getting tangled in loose cords and compliant with the child safety standards. The Shield encases the chain, leaving 8" exposed to easily control the shade.

HOW TO OPERATE

Do not pull on the side of the shade fabric; this can cause the fabric to be misaligned or become dirty. A continuous cord loop roller shade should only be operated by pulling the chain.

Pulling gently on the cord in one direction raises the shade; pulling it in the other direction lowers it. On shades where the fabric rolls against the window, the front cord lifts the shade. On shades where the fabric rolls toward the room, the rear cord lifts the shade.

WARNING

STRANGULATION HAZARD — Young children can be strangled by cords. Immediately remove this product if a cord longer than 22 cm or a loop exceeding 44 cm around becomes accessible.
