The Savant Shade Negative Reveal Pocket system is designed to provide a clean transition from ceiling to shade enclosure. The system's
access panels are available in eight foot lengths and four or six inch widths. When shorter lengths are required, the access panel and
bracket can be cut to length in the field. For systems that require a shade that spans longer than eight feet, access panel joiner brackets
(included in kit) are available that allow two access panels to be joined together. Note: For lengths longer than eight feet, a shade
coupler (sold separately) is required. The SHA-C4IN and SHA-C6IN kits come complete with everything shown in the box contents
section below. Shade mount kits SHA-CB34 and SHA-CB5 can be purchased separately as needed.
Build Pocket
Joining two Access Panels
Access panels must first be joined together when the shade
pocket is longer than 8 feet. See steps below.
Cutting the Access Panel
Before installing the shade mounts, a pocket must be built into the ceiling where the shade and shade mounts will be housed. The
pocket should be constructed with a solid material such as plywood or medium density fiber (MDF) board that can handle the weight of
the complete shade assembly, and then finished with wall board. Use the diagram below when building the pocket.
