Install steps:
The following installation steps apply to both Standard Bottom-Up and Top-Down/Bottom-Up blinds:
Get organised
Unpack your custom kit, and lay out your honeycomb blinds on a clean floor, under your window.
Installing your brackets
Position the end brackets 100mm in from the edge of the architrave and space any additional brackets evenly across the window. The maximum distance between brackets can not exceed 800mm. Mark the hole positions if required, then pre-drill two holes per bracket and secure them with screws.
Ensure the top of the bracket is installed at the exact height you measured for your order (this measurement refers to the top of the bracket, not the screw holes).
For face fit installations, fix the screws through the back plate of the bracket into the architrave or wall — not through the top of the bracket.

Child safety
A
The cleats must be installed at least 1600mm above floor level, because a child is capable of unwinding a cord from a cleat.
B
Fasten the cleats to the wall using the screws provided. Do not use tape or glue.
C
The cord must not form a loop longer than 220mm and should be wound entirely around the cleat.
Cord cleats must be installed to comply with Child Safety Regulations and more importantly keep kids safe from possible strangulation.
