carefully before you
start fitting your blind.
To Fit the Brackets Fit the Wand
1. Position the brackets at a suitable distance
away from any window handles or. If top fixing,
use a louvre hanger as a guide to positioning
your holes. If face fixing, mark where the
screws will go using the holes in the bracket as
a guide.
2. Ideally, position the brackets 5cm in from each
end of the head rail. Any additional brackets
should be spaced evenly.
3. For a wall or lintel, use a drill with a suitable
sized bit to make your holes, and push in
rawplugs. You may need different screws from
those provided i.e. 1½”8’s
4. For a wooden frame, screw your brackets into
position with the screws provided. A pilot hole
may be needed to allow easier fixing of the
screws.
5. Fix the bracket into place and repeat on the
other side of the blind.
