STEP 1 - GETTING STARTED OVERVIEW

Before you begin, check the accompanying diagram to make sure you have all the parts you

need.

You’ll need to make sure the surface you intend to install your hardware is sturdy enough

to accommodate the brackets. If you’re screwing directly into a surface this means locating

wood studs that are strong enough to securely bond with the included screws. Otherwise,

you’ll need to use a secure fastener (as illustrated) but please note this piece is not included.

Tools & Parts

WALLBOARD OR PLASTER:

Hollow wall applications: Use a secure fastener designed

speci cally for this purpose.

METAL:

Prepare by pre-drilling holes and then using the included screws.

CONCRETE, STONE, BRICK OR TILE:

Use a masonry drill and surface-speci c plugs, anchors, or screws. When selecting a fastener

be sure it’s designed to support the weight of the product being installed (if you’re not sure,

either give us a call or ask a professional at your local hardware store). Once obtained, follow

the fastener manufacturer’s instructions regarding proper installation.

TOOLS YOU WILL NEED TO INSTALL YOUR HARDWARE:

Pencil, screwdriver, ¼" nut driver, level, and a drill with a 7⁄64" drill bit.

Note: It’s important to monitor the amount of pressure you apply when using a drill. If the

screws are too tight this may cause the screw itself to break off in the wall or window frame.

Place the panel on the rod. To ensure

it drapes at the correct length, hold

it up to the spot you wish to install

it; this will allow you to raise or lower

your treatment as desired.

After you’ve located the ideal

location, use a pencil to mark the wall

where the top of the rod is resting.

Remove the panel from the rod and

then center the rod over the window

opening at the desired height. Using

the pencil, mark where the ends of

each rod are positioned; if you’re

using a center bracket, note the

middle point between these two

spots as well. If you have more than

one center bracket spread these

evenly between the two end brackets

and center point. If you have a spliced

rod, mark where that splice is as well

on the wall since you will need to add

the special splice bracket at that point

as well. Measure 6” inward from the

marks you’ve made on both ends

and mark those spots. This is where

the end brackets will be installed.

Place center of bracket cover plate

level against wall at the marked spots.

Using a pencil, lightly draw a circle

around the base of the bracket onto

wall, (see Figure A). Check to make

sure the circles are level & aligned

with each other.

Remove back plate and center it

inside of the circle outline on wall.

Mark the screw hole locations for all

brackets (see Figure B).

Attach the metal back plate to the

wall, aligning the holes in the plate

with the marks made in the previous

step (see Figure B). Be sure and

attach the plate to the wall with the

appropriate mounting hardware.

(It is always recommended to try

and attach to the wood studs inside

the wall. Where this is not possible

please use a wall anchor suitable to

carry the weight of your hardware

selection as well as your draperies

and any accessories.)

Place bracket cover plate on top of

back plate and thread on the inside

post. Make sure to screw on the post

very tightly. Do not leave any play or

wiggle room. Put the outside post to

the side since you will use it later.

Your track rod will come with all master

carriers and regular carriers pre-installed.

If you need to add or take out some

carriers depending on your drapery,

unscrew the End Cap from the rod.

Remove the carrier & end stop and either

add or take out the carriers needed.

Do this for front and back rods.

STEP 3 - ATTACHING THE ROD CONNECTOR STEP 4 - ADDING OR REMOVING CARRIERS

Depending on your order, you may

have received a rod connector.

A rod connector is the short piece of

metal placed inside each end of the

rods in a multi-segment system to

join them together.

Join track sections together and fasten

securely with set screws.

Attach mounting clip at splice by

pressing clip down and snapping it

to track.

Once all carriers have been placed in

the track, for split drapery, place end

stop in between the  rst carrier from

each end and the second carrier so

end of drape does not move when

drape is closed. Repeat for back rod

if necessary.

ONE WAY DRAW DRAPERY (B)

For one way draw drapery, place

end stop in between the first carrier

from the end and the second carrier

of the side you won’t be opening,

so the end of drape does not move

when drape is closed.

Place another end stop right before

the beginning of the end cap to

prevent master carrier from moving

all the way to the end. Repeat for

back rod if necessary.

Attaching Loop Control

Tensioner

Your hardware rod has arrived with the

cord tensioner to comply with current

child safety standards. The cord tensioner

must be mounted and secured before the

rod will operate correctly. To position the

tensioner, grasp the screw hole and pull

down to release the lock. Pull the cord

through the tensioner until the tensioner

is at the bottom of the cord loop.

IMPORTANT

In compliance with national safety regula-

tions rods will not operate unless the cord

tensioner is installed correctly!

IMPORTANT

In compliance with national safety

regulations rods will not operate unless

the cord tensioner is installed correctly!

After the rod is installed, the cord tensioner

must be secured to the wall.

1. Position the tensioner as close to the

drape as possible without interfering

with the drape.

2. Make sure the screw hole (A) on the

cord tensioner is pulled halfway down

before mounting. This will ensure the

cord can move freely through the cord

tensioner.

3. For WALL MOUNT (B & C) installations

use the supplied mounting bracket.
