Blinds Chalet Embassy 2 Macro Aluminum Blinds - Manual

Custom Mini‐Blinds
Your custom mini‐blind package contains
brackets and screws for mounting the
blind in almost any position on the
window. Unwrap each blind and set it
against
its designated window to
determine whether it was made to fit
inside the window frame or on the outside
of the casing.
Tools Needed
1. Cordless drill with a 1/4” nut drive
attachment
2. Standard or Phillips screwdriver
3. A tape measure
4. A pencil
Note: If you are installing into hollow wall,
you’ll need to purchase the appropriate
hollow wall anchors from your local
hardware store.

Inside Window Frame Installation
If the blind was ordered as an “Inside
Mount,” to ensure a proper fit, the factory
has already made allowances from the
window measurements.
Bracket Installation
The installation brackets are designed with
a series of holes to allow for many
different mounting conditions. Mount
both left and right brackets in the upper
inside corners of each window. Set the
front of the bracket so that it projects 1/4”
into the room (in front of the drywall).
This allowance will allow the valance
returns to fit snuggly against the drywall.
The doors of the installation brackets are
intended to open from the front and swing
upward. Outside Window Frame
(Wall Mount) Installations
If the blind was ordered as an “Outside
Mount,” the factory has made the item
exactly to the ordered size.
Bracket Installation
The installation brackets are designed to
work for wall mounting. Use a minimum
of two screws through the back plate of
each bracket, one being placed in an
upper hole. Make sure this upper screw is
firmly imbedded into the wall framing.
Mini‐blind installation brackets require
secure fastening. Brackets also can be
mounted onto trim or molding around the
windows. If you are installing into a
hollow wall, you’ll need to purchase the
appropriate hollow wall anchors. Seek the
advice of an expert at your local
hardware store.
Plan to center the outside mount blind on
the window, allowing equal extension
beyond the window edge on both sides.
Brackets should be placed a minimum of
2‐1/2” above window opening for
mini‐blinds.
Spacer Blocks
If the blind must be extended from the
wall, due to window cranks or other
objects of this nature, spacer blocks are
provided (if requested) for the installation
and center support brackets.
Center Supports
If the blind is over 60 inches wide,
center supports have been furnished.
Center supports are to be spaced evenly.
Install center supports so that they do not
interfere with any lift cords or slat
ladders. For inside mount, the back plate
of the installation brackets should be
mounted at the distance out, from the
back of the window.
