How to Install Inside Mount Honeycomb/Cellular Shades

Most people think installing their own blinds is hard. Following the simple, step-by-step instructions in this video though makes hanging your custom honeycomb/cellular shades easy to do yourself! Just screw in your brackets, snap on the headrail and you’re done! Here’s how you do it: 1. Depending on the width of your shade, you may need more than two brackets, which can be centered between your outermost brackets. Once you've decided where each bracket will be placed, mark these areas with a pencil. 2. Use the holes in the top of each bracket to mark where the screws will go. 3. Measure between your marks to make sure they’re aligned before you screw them in. We also recommend pre-drilling pilot holes once everything’s aligned. This makes it easier to drill your screws in. 4. One at a time, place each bracket over the marks or holes you’ve made and drill the screws in loosely. This gives you a little wiggle room for any adjustments to make sure the brackets are straight and aligned. 5. Finish drilling in the screws all the way. 6. With the front of the shade facing you, tilt the headrail slightly back to angle the front inside lip of it onto the brackets. 7. In the same movement, push the headrail back and up to snap it into place. You’ll hear a sharp click when it is. 8. If your shade is not cordless, attach the lift handle and you’re done! 9.
