You should also check to ensure your shade is in good shape, it&#8217;s the right color, and the right size. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/help-center\/contact-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Contact our Design Experts right away if you notice any damage or defects.<\/a> After that, you can ditch the box.<\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25091 lazyload\" title=\"hardware and instructions needed to install cellular shades\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/WovenWoodGuide.jpg\" alt=\"hardware and instructions needed to install cellular shades\" width=\"600\" height=\"482\" data-first-enter-image=\"true\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/WovenWoodGuide.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/WovenWoodGuide-300x241.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/WovenWoodGuide-450x362.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/WovenWoodGuide-225x181.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/WovenWoodGuide-20x15.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/WovenWoodGuide-120x96.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/WovenWoodGuide-150x121.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<h2>Step Two<\/h2>\n<h3>Prepare Your Tools<\/h3>\n<p>Gather your courage and crack open that toolbox. You&#8217;re not going to need anything too fancy for this job. Remember, installing Cellular Shades is easy. You&#8217;ll need a metal tape measure, a power drill with a screwdriver bit (Phillips head with a star top) or 1\/4&#8243; nut driver bit, as well as a pencil. A level will also help make sure you&#8217;re mounting your shade evenly if you&#8217;re doing an outside mount. You&#8217;ll also need drywall anchors for an outside mount, if you&#8217;re not drilling directly into a stud. Don&#8217;t forget a step ladder if your windows are hard to reach!<\/p>\n<h4>Recommended Tools<\/h4>\n<p>\u2022 Metal Tape Measure<br \/>\n\u2022 Screwdriver<br \/>\n\u2022 Power Drill + Bits<br \/>\n\u2022 Pencil<br \/>\n\u2022 Step Ladder<br \/>\n\u2022 Drywall Anchors<br \/>\n\u2022 Level<\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25105 lazyload\" title=\"tools needed to install your cellular shade\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellTools.jpg\" alt=\"tools needed to install your cellular shade\" width=\"600\" height=\"422\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellTools.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellTools-300x211.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellTools-450x317.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellTools-225x158.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellTools-20x15.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellTools-136x96.jpg 136w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellTools-150x106.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<h2>Step Three<\/h2>\n<h3>Install Your Brackets<\/h3>\n<p>Let&#8217;s get to work. Your brackets hold your Cellular Shade in place, so it&#8217;s crucial to make sure they are secure and even. Fortunately, Cellular Shades are very light so it doesn&#8217;t take much to keep them sturdy. We recommend spacing your brackets about three inches in from either side of your window (specifically for an inside mount). Larger windows may include an extra bracket for the middle of your shade. Mark your bracket placement with a pencil and then pre-drill small holes through the markings. When you have prepared each location, screw in the brackets using the hardware provided.<\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25110 lazyload\" title=\"installing the brackets for a custom cellular shade\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularBracketInstall.jpg\" alt=\"installing the brackets for a custom cellular shade\" width=\"600\" height=\"410\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularBracketInstall.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularBracketInstall-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularBracketInstall-450x308.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularBracketInstall-225x154.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularBracketInstall-20x15.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularBracketInstall-140x96.jpg 140w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularBracketInstall-150x103.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<h2>Step Four<\/h2>\n<h3>Install Cellular Shades<\/h3>\n<p>Once the brackets are in place, grab your shade and put it into position. The headrail should snap into the mounting brackets fairly easily. If you&#8217;re having trouble, try to align the brackets with the front of the shade first before rocking the headrail back into position. You should hear a satisfying &#8220;click&#8221; when it is attached. Gently test the shade by raising and lowering it to make sure everything works as expected. Don&#8217;t forget to brag to your friends and family that you did it all yourself!<\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25111 lazyload\" title=\"finally installing your cellular shade on the brackets\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularShadeInstall.jpg\" alt=\"finally installing your cellular shade on the brackets\" width=\"600\" height=\"421\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularShadeInstall.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularShadeInstall-300x211.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularShadeInstall-450x316.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularShadeInstall-225x158.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularShadeInstall-20x15.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularShadeInstall-137x96.jpg 137w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/CellularShadeInstall-150x105.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/center><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-20479 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"11\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-300x6.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-585x11.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-450x8.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-225x4.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-20x1.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/BlogSpace3-150x3.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/installing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25098 lazyload\" title=\"Need help?
