Motorized Solar Shades with Cassette
Fittings the brackets
The brackets offer two methods of installation:
Top-Fixing
Use the front two holes 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)
Note that the position of the outermost brackets should be at least 5cm away from the ends of the rail, with any other brackets evenly distributed across the width.
Fitting the shade
Holding the rail at an angle, situate the T-shaped lip on the top of the
cassette into the front lip of the bracket.
Twist the back of the cassette upwards until it snaps into place against the
back lip of the bracket.
Before you begin
We will have positioned the controls where you requested during the ordering process. However if you decide to swap the side that they are on, direction of the roll or need to trim the blind further, the controls can be removed by simply unplugging them from the tube. This should be done prior to fixing the brackets.
Fitting the brackets
The brackets offer three methods of installation:
Top-Fixing
Where the brackets are
screwed into the lintel (or
‘ceiling’ of the recess)| Face-Fixing
Where the brackets are
screwed onto a facing surface
(a wall or window frame)| Side-Fixing
Where the brackets are
screwed into the side walls of
the recess
Top Tip
Top-fixing or face-fixing are recommended for most installations, whereas
side-fixing is only recommended if the width you gave us was taken right at the
top of the recess.
Fitting the blind
Locate the depression end (the opposite end to the controls) of the blind into the cross-shaped hole in the corresponding bracket.
Lift the control end of the blind and slot the rectangular ‘lugs’ into the corresponding slots on the bracket.
