Fitting the brackets
There are two types of brackets for vertical blinds, each of which offers a different method of installation:
| Top-Fixing| | Face-
Fixing
---|---|---|---
Use the single hole in the top of the bracket to fix to the lintel (the
‘ceiling’ of the recess).| Use two screws through the back plate to mount onto
a facing surface (a wall or window frame).
If you’re using top-fix brackets, make sure that you mount them at least 7.5cm
in front of either the window frame or any protruding vents or hands, if there
are any. This allows space for the louvers to turn open and closed.
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 blind
Top-Fixing
Situate the front lip of the headrail into the front of the bracket.
Lift the back of the headrail and push up firmly to secure the back of the
rail into the bracket.
Face-Fixing
Situate the back lip of the headrail into the back hook of the bracket.
Lift the front of the headrail so it’s level, then tighten the screw in the
front of the bracket to secure the rail in place.
Hanging the louvers
Top Tip
Before hooking the louvers on the rail, use the control wand to turn the hooks
so that they all face side on. This makes it far quicker to hook the louvers
on and also ensures that the louvers will not clash when you first, use the
blind.
Hook the control wand
onto the eyelet at the end of the hooks.
If you chose a ‘split’ stack, there will be two hooks closest to the center of
the rail, and you will be supplied with two wands.
Hook the louvers onto the rail.
Slide the weights into the pockets at the bottom of the louvers.
