American Blinds Prestige 2 Inch Custom Wood Drapery Hardware

Getting Started

Please read through all instructions carefully before you begin installation.
Open the tube by prying the end open with a screwdriver.
Unpack all materials making sure all components are included:

• Pole
• Drapery rings
• Mounting brackets with Allen key
• Finials

Please note that your brackets must be securely attached to the mounting surface. If your screws do not hit wood studs you’ll have to use a different fastener, which can be found at any local hardware store.

Tools You Will Need

• Drill with a 1/8” bit and a Phillips bit
• Phillips screwdriver
• Metal tape measure
• Hacksaw (optional)

Installing Your Wood Drapery Hardware

You are now ready to install your hardware.

1. Measure
   Measure the area you are covering and cut down pole if needed with hacksaw.
   Poles are pre-cut to your specified size.

2. Mark
   Mark the height you would like the top of drapery pole to be installed.
   Note: The top of the drapery will hang down approx. 3” from the top of the pole.

3. Mount
   Place top of bracket ½” above marked height. Drill in screws through the top and bottom holes for a secure mount. Repeat this process for all other brackets.

4. Attach Rings and Poles
   Slide rings onto pole. You may want to leave one ring on the outside of each of the end brackets. Set the pole on the brackets. (When installing hardware for areas over 8’ wide it is advisable to buy a double-sided screw to securely join poles.)
   

5. Attach Finials
   Attach finials to both ends of the pole.
