02. Positioning and punching.

Considering the firmness of fixing, in order to avoid the excessive spacing of fixing parts and unable to bear the tension.

First of all, we have to calculate the distance between the fixed holes. Generally, the distance between the fixed pieces is ≤50cm, and then draw lines and locate them.When the fixed installation position is determined, drilling operation is needed to fill in the expansion screws. If it is a wooden base, there is no need to drill holes, and it can be fixed directly with self-tapping screws.

03. Install fabric blinds for windows rod.

For Roman rods, after positioning and punching, the mounting frame can be fixed first. Then put the rod on the mounting frame.  

Installation method of fabric blinds for windows track:

01. Curtain track height

Before installing the curtain track, first measure the height of the installation.

Curtains are divided into single, double or triple tracks. When the window width is greater than 1200mm, the curtain tracks should be disconnected, and the bends at the disconnection places should be staggered. The bends should be gentle and curved, and the overlapping length should not be less than 200mm.

Generally, the light curtain box should be installed with rails first, the heavy curtain rail should be added with machine screws, and the dark fabric blinds for windows box should be installed with rails later. The small angle of the heavy curtain track should be densely spaced, and the specifications of the wooden screws should be ≥30mm or more.  

02. Curtain track hoisting

Install the lifting clip, rotate the clip 90 degrees to connect with the track, and then install the lifting clip on the ceiling board with self-tapping screws. If the curtain track is a concrete structure, expansion screws are needed.  

03. Curtain track is fixed

 

 

After the curtain track is connected and fixed, install the rods or wires and pull them on the fixed parts, so as to reach the standard of being flat and in line with the elevation of the room.

When installing a standard curtain track (double track), the width of curtain track foundation is usually more than 15cm, while that of monorail can be reduced according to the actual situation.   

04. Curtain track adjustment

It is also necessary to adjust the position of the curtain track. For floor-standing curtains or curtains hanging over the table, the width of the window sill should be allowed when installing the curtain track to avoid being blocked when the curtain hangs down. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the installation position of curtain track.
