Position the brackets
As per your order, determine where your blind is to be fitted
The amount of brackets supplied will vary depending on the width of the Vertical blind track.

Face Fit - On the window frame or wall Mark out the positions for the bracket at the desired even distance. If fitting the blind to architraves and the track has an overhang that goes past the window frame, put the end brackets level with the edge of the architrave.

Position the tension device at the bottom of the chain loop, either to the inside of the window frame or in front of it.
