Easy to Install

Wood blinds can be installed quickly and effortlessly with just a few simple steps. First, position the mounting brackets where you would like your blinds mounted; use a level and tape measure to make sure everything is level and even. Next, mark out mounting holes using pencil; if installing into wood frame no anchors need be drilled but if installing into drywall it’s recommended pre-drill screw hole marks before anchoring them using drywall screws.

Fix the headrail by snapping its included valance clips over the front lip of its bracket cover and evenly spacing them to avoid interfering with any internal operating mechanisms inside it. Install any center support brackets if required.

If you want something luxurious added, optional features like cloth tapes to conceal cords for better light control and privacy or round slats to add a delicate and elegant aesthetic may add even further beauty and refinement.
