4. Measuring from the front edge of the jamb toward the window glass, mark each jamb at the desired bracket mounting depth.*

* Important Inside-Mount Clearance Information

ROLLUP RADIUS (RR): Measure the fabric roll diameter (Rollup Diameter; also listed on the original shade quote). RR = Rollup Diameter / 2.
J AMB BRACKET MOUNTING HEIGHT: To ensure adequate fabric roll clearance, jamb brackets must be mounted at a distance from the top of the jamb equal to or greater than the Rollup Radius (RR) minus 1/2 in (13 mm).

MOUNTING DEPTH: To allow free access to the battery compartment, the mounting depth must be 5/8 in (16 mm) or less.
Brackets may be mounted deeper than 5/8 in (16 mm), but battery access will require full removal of the shade from the brackets. BOTTOM BAR CLEARANCE:** To ensure adequate clearance for the PALLADIOM bottom bar, the distance from the rear of the bracket to the window must be equal to or greater than the Rollup Radius (RR) minus 1-1/8 in (29 mm).
For all other bottom bar types (Architectural, Designer, Sealed), the distance from the rear of the bracket to the window must be equal to or greater than the Rollup Radius (RR) minus 1-5/8 in (41 mm).

MEASURE AND MARK FOR GANGED SHADES (3-shade example)

1. Measure across the window at the top, and make a mark at the half-way point (Window Center).
2. Note the correct bracket-to-bracket width (BtoB), on each shade box label, then add the widths together to get the Total System Width (TSW).
3. Measuring from the window center on a level line to the left, mark a distance equal to: TSW / 2.
4. Measuring from the mark made in Step 3 on a level line to the right, mark a distance equal to Shade 1 BtoB.
5. Measuring from the mark made in Step 4 on a level line to the right, mark a distance equal to Shade 2 BtoB.
6. Measure from end-mark to end-mark, verifying the distance is equal to the TSW, calculated at Step 2.

Ganged Shades Example:

1. Shade BtoB is measured to/from the centerline of center brackets
2. Individual shade BtoB tolerance is ± 1⁄8 in (3 mm)
3. Inside mount shown – measure-and-mark procedure is the same for outside mount
4. All inside mounting depth, height, and clearance information presented in section 1.1 above is applicable to inside-mounted ganged shades
5. Wall-mount center brackets are operator-side reversible – ceiling mount center brackets are not
