Honeycomb Shades
Locating the brackets
The position that you place the outermost brackets must be 5cm away from the end of the rail. Any additional brackets (supplied for wider blinds) can then be evenly distributed across the window space. Use a pencil to mark the window area where the brackets will be positioned.
Ensure that the back of the bracket sits clear of any protruding items such as window handles or vents. This will allow the blind to hang correctly once installed.
Fitting the brackets
The brackets offer two methods of installation:
|
---|---
Top-Fixing
Use the single hole in the top of the bracket to fix to
the lintel (the ‘ceiling’ of the recess).| Face-Fixing
Use two screws through the back plate to mount
onto a facing surface (a wall or window frame)
Fitting the blind
| Situate the front lip of the headrail into the front hook of the bracket.
---|---
| Push the back of the headrail upwards to engage the metal clip at the back
of the bracket.
Additional Information
| If the blind appears too short when fitted, don’t worry, it can take some
time for the pleats to settle and loosen up when the blind is new. Leave the
blind lowered for 24 hours and you should find that it begins to settle quite
quickly. If you want to help it along, you can simply pull the blind down to
its fullest extent and brush your hand vigorously down the
pleats from top to bottom. Do not attempt to adjust the cords.
---|---
| Cleaning the blind is easy; keep it free of dust using the brush attachment
of a vacuum cleaner, and clean any marks or stains using a damp cloth or
sponge. Do not soak the blind fabric as this can cause the pleats to lose
their shape.
| To remove the blind from the brackets, insert a flat head screwdriver into
the tab protruding from the bottom of the rail, then gently pry it back while
tilting the back of the rail downwards. Repeat this carefully for each bracket
to release the rail.

Installing the no-tools headrail
Installing the no-tools headrail
Hold the no-tools headrail up against the top of the recess, then push the lever firmly upwards until the rail snaps into place. If the rail is not quite tight enough then this can be easily adjusted:
At the end of the rail opposite to the lever there is an adjustment block that allows you to fine-tune the fitting of the rail. Use a flat-head screwdriver to twist the small red plugs in toward the center of the rail. Slide the block out of the rail by a few millimeters, then twist the red plugs back into their original position to fix the block in place. Make small adjustments only, repeating as necessary for a tight fit.
Fitting the blind
| Situate the front lip of the headrail into the front hook of the bracket.
---|---
| Push the back of the headrail upwards to engage the metal clip at the back
of the bracket.
