INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Important: Make sure the mounting surface is level. Brackets must be in line
and level for shade to install properly.
Inside Mount: Install the brackets level and aligned to each other, using
the screws provided. The minimum mounting depth for an inside shallow mount is
3/4”. A minimum of 2” is needed to fully recess a shade with the standard
rail. A minimum of 2 1/2” is needed to fully recess a shade with the large
rail.
Outside Mount : Center the shade over the window opening at the desired
height and mark the end of the shade. The minimum mounting height for outside
mounted shades is 3/4”. 
Spacer Blocks : Each spacer block projects brackets 3/8” away (max 3 sets). Make sure that the brackets are level and aligned. Attach using two screws. Screws should be long enough to secure the bracket to the mounting surface.
Extension Brackets: Extension brackets project the shading up to 2 7/8” from the mounting surface. Attach the mounting bracket to the extension bracket with the nuts and bolts provided.
