"Up & Down" Pleated Blind

This model is mounted using four brackets: two at the top and two at the bottom.

Step-by-step guide:

  • Mark the depth at which you'd like to install the blind inside the window recess
  • Secure all 4 brackets in place
  • Attach the tension cords – start with the bottom brackets
  • Insert the upper cover rail and tighten the cords
  • Adjust the cord length: tie a knot and trim the excess
  • Attach the handles to the center of the top and bottom rails

Is your pleated blind uneven, are the cords twisted, or is it not folding properly? Our video tutorials include helpful troubleshooting tips.
