Installation

The installation process for inside mount blinds may vary slightly depending on your product. These general steps provide an overview for installing inside mount blinds, but always refer to the manufacturer instructions for details specific to your product.

Step1: Position the first bracket in the upper corner of the window frame so that it's level with the wall's surface. Always check your specific product instructions for the exact placement of the brackets. If your blinds came with a decorative valance, you will need to set the brackets further back into the window opening to allow room for the valance.

Step2: Mark the screw locations with a pencil.

Step3: Repeat steps 1 and 2 with the second bracket in the opposite corner of the window frame. If you're mounting into drywall with no studs behind, you will need to use drywall anchors.

Step4: Use a steel tape measure or a level tool to ensure the two bracket locations are even.

Step5: Use a drill bit - smaller than your screws - to drill pilot holes through your bracket marks.

Step6: Screw the brackets in place.

Step7: Install your blinds by sliding the headrail into the brackets, and close the brackets to secure the headrail in place, or snap the headrail into the brackets for other styles.

Step8: Test your blinds by lowering, raising, and rotating them to ensure all parts are functional.
