Fitting the brackets
There are two types of brackets for vertical blinds, each of which offers a different method of installation:
Use the single hole in the top of the bracket to fix to
the lintel (the 'ceiling' of the recess).
5cm
7.5cm
Top-Fixing
If you're using top-fix brackets, make sure that you mount them at least 7.5cm in front of either
the window frame, or any protruding vents or handes, if there are any. This allows space for the
louvres to turn open and closed.

If you prefer to print the instructions or simply to follow
step-by-step, just keep reading.
Use two screws through the back plate to mount
onto a facing surface (a wall or window frame)
Note that the position of the outermost brackets should be
5cm
at least 5cm away from the ends of the rail, with any other
brackets evenly distributed across the width.
For safety reasons, always ensure that the top of
the blind is installed at least 150cm (1500mm)
from the floor.
