arches, extended arches, quarter circles, angles, extended angles, and triangles only.)
Your order will include the correct number of mounting brackets for your blind.

Arrange the Uprights
Each upright is marked with a label that matches the label on the bottom rail.
Arrange the uprights as labeled against the top side of the bottom rail.
The slots in the uprights must face up, and the end of the upright with the hole in it goes
against the bottom rail.
Attach the Uprights to the Bottom Rail
Attach the uprights to the bottom rail using one flat head screw per upright.
The flat head screws go through the countersunk holes in the bottom rail and then into the
uprights.
Double check that the slots in all the uprights are facing up.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten the flat head screws.
Install the Slats
IMPORTANT: Slats are stacked in the order of assembly.
Insert the slats into the slots in the uprights. Start at the bottom slot of the uprights and
insert the first slat.
Work your way up to the top until all slots are filled.
Top and/or Bottom Slats
Blinds with short top and/or bottom slats may come with a piece of double-sided tape
attached. Peel off the tape backing, align the slat, and insert it into the top and/or bottom slot
of the single tallest upright. The tape will hold the slat securely in place.

Additional Slat Installation (Arch, Extended Arch, Quarter Circle,
Angle, Extended Angle, and Triangle)
An additional slat labeled “extra” is included with the blinds that have bottom rails. This slat
is the same length as the bottom rail. It is designed to help eliminate the light gap at the
bottom of the specialty shape.
If you choose to install this extra slat:
Use the hook and loop fastener provided to attach the slat to the rear side of the bottom
rail, with the slat upright as shown in the illustrations.
Be sure the slat is installed on the rear side of the bottom rail so that it faces the window
when the blind is installed.

Blinds Without Bottom Rail (Hexagon, Octagon, Circle, and Oval)
Arrange the Uprights
Each upright is marked with a label: A, B, C, etc. Start on the left side with “A” and arrange
the uprights as labeled.
Stand the uprights on their back edge so that the slots are face up, with the slots angled
the same on all uprights.
Arrange the uprights so that they approximate the shape of the blind, with the slots
aligned horizontally.
The distance between uprights should be approximately equal.
