Outside Mount — Coupled Shades
■
Center the total coupled ordered width over the window casement and mark each end.
■
To mark the location for your intermediate brackets, measure from the end mark near the
motor the motor panel ordered width and make a mark.
■
For three or more coupled shades, the remaining intermediate brackets will be marked
using the middle panel(s) ordered width.
➤
Measure the middle panel(s) ordered width from the outside edge of the first
intermediate bracket and mark. This mark will be the outside edge of the next
intermediate bracket.
➤
After the last intermediate bracket is marked, the distance from that bracket to the
idle end window jamb should be the end panel ordered width.
■
Place the end brackets
