Install Your Brackets<\/h3>\n<p>For roman shades, your brackets will hang through the slots notched in your wooden headrail. To mark your bracket position, hold your shade up to the window and make a pencil mark through each notch. You can also mark bracket placement by using a tape measure to measure the distance on your headrail and measuring the same distance in your window frame. Ensure your brackets look evenly placed. It\u2019s a good idea to predrill holes through those marks to make things easier. Once the holes are ready, screw the brackets into place securely using the hardware provided.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/2QvV70CaXKI\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25880 lazyload\" title=\"Install the brackets of your Roman Shade according to which type of mount you will be using\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BracketsRS.jpg\" alt=\"Install the brackets of your Roman Shade according to which type of mount you will be using\" width=\"600\" height=\"345\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BracketsRS.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BracketsRS-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BracketsRS-450x259.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BracketsRS-225x129.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BracketsRS-20x11.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BracketsRS-167x96.jpg 167w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BracketsRS-150x86.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<h3>Step 4. Install Your Shades<\/h3>\n<p>Align the headrail of your roman shade with the brackets. The longer part of each bracket should extend through the headrail. When you see the extended piece, screw on the wingnuts to secure your headrail in place. Don\u2019t be afraid to tighten each wingnut. The top fold of your shade will hide all of the hardware.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/2QvV70CaXKI\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25881 lazyload\" title=\"All that's left to do is hang your Roman Shades by attaching them to the brackets and securing them with a wingnut\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/InstallRS.jpg\" alt=\"All that's left to do is hang your Roman Shades by attaching them to the brackets and securing them with a wingnut\" width=\"600\" height=\"340\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/InstallRS.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/InstallRS-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/InstallRS-450x255.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/InstallRS-20x11.jpg 20w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/InstallRS-225x128.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/InstallRS-169x96.jpg 169w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/InstallRS-150x85.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<h3>Finishing Up<\/h3>\n<p>We recommend testing your shade, raising it lowering it slowly to ensure even movement. Stop the shade halfway down the window and check for proper tension. If everything is working properly, congratulations!
