Cellular Shades
Installation Instructions

Mounting Brackets:

Hold shade up to window exactly as you will want it. Make sure it is level (except Angle Tops). For outside mount, be sure to leave "room for closed shade height" above your window.

Put about a 2" long pencil mark on the wall about 3" in from each end of the shade. For outside or wall mount, use the top rear edge of the shade for a guide. For inside or ceiling mount, use the top front edge of the shade for a guide. On shades wider than 42", make a mark for each bracket with about equal space between the marks.


Put your shade down. Hold a bracket up to each pencil mark as shown here and mark where the center of the mounting holes are. Drill holes on these marks. Drill size depends on which type fastener you choose. Place brackets over holes and drive screws into holes until they are tight. Do not over tighten. Slots in brackets allow for some adjustment.
Note: Inside or ceiling mount use center slot and only one fastener.


Hanging your Shade:

Lock the shade in the fully raised position (see Operating Your Shade). Hook the front of the headrail onto the front of the brackets. Rotate the shade back to snap in place.


Operating your Shade:

Standard   Bottom-Up/Top-Down

To lower shade, pull the cord down and towards the center of the shade to unlock the cord, then slowly release the cord until the shade is how you want it. Move the cord past the side of the shade and let go to lock the cord.

To raise the shade, pull the cord straight down until the shade is how you want it. Move the cord past the side of the shade and let go to lock the cord.

The cord on the right controls the bottom of the shade. The cord on the left controls the top of the shade. To lower either the bottom or top of the shade, pull the right or left cord down slightly and toward the center of the shade to release the cord lock. While holding the cord towards the center of the shade, let the cord run through your hand until the bottom or top of the shade is in the position desired. Pull the cord to the outside of the shade and release it to lock it in place.

To raise either the bottom or top of the shade simply pull either the right or left cord straight down and release it when the shade is at the position desired. The lock will automatically lock the cord.Hint: Before raising the entire shade to the top, raise the top of the shade all the way first. Then raise the bottom of the shade.
