aria-level=\"1\">Double check number of screws, mounts, and other hardware equipment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Tools You\u2019ll Need<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Screwdriver<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Drill (hand or electric)<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Level tool<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">A steel measuring tape and pencil<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Step ladder (if needed)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Choose Outside or Inside Mount Blinds, Shades<\/h2>\n<p>Decide if you want to install your blinds, shades, shutters, or draperies inside the window frame or casing (Inside Mount) or above and around the window recess (Outside Mount).<\/p>\n<h3>Step-by-Step Guide for Inside Mount Blinds, Shades<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Step 1: Sort Out and Prepare Mounting Brackets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sort out different types of mounting brackets, like end box and center support brackets, and prepare them before you begin fixing them to the inside of the window recess or casing for inside mount blinds, shades.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Align Brackets with a Level Tool and Mark Their Positions<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Use a level tool to align box brackets at each end of the headrail or opposite corner of the window frame.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Mark the position of each bracket with the help of a pencil.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Mark the location of center support bracket in the center of box brackets.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">If there are more than one support brackets, place them evenly between the end brackets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Step 3: Mark Screw Locations and Drill Pilot Holes<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Mark the location of bracket mounting holes with the help of a pencil.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Drill pilot holes using a hand or electric drill.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Use drywall anchors if you are mounting blinds or shades into a drywall without studs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Step 4: Screw Brackets in Place<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Use a screwdriver to screw different types of brackets (e.g., end box brackets and center

aria-level=\"1\">Raise, lower, rotate, or adjust your blinds or shades to test if each part is working perfectly.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Pull down the cord to unlock it and slowly release it to let the blind or shade get lowered to the desired level.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Pull the cord down to raise your inside mount blinds or shades.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Lock the cord once your blinds or shades are adjusted at the required position.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Step 7: Installing Valance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To conceal the installation hardware and to add to the decorative appeal of your window shades or blinds, you may like to install a valance.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Fix two valance clips, each at the opposite end of the headrail.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Attach remaining clips evenly to the front of the headrail.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Make sure that two parts of a valance clip snap together.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Step-by-Step Guide for Outside Mount
