  1. Securing the brackets

    - If no timber is available within 250mm of the ends, use suitable wall anchors or plugs and positionthe first and last brackets within 100mm of each end of the track.
    - Space the remaining brackets evenly between them, with a maximum spacing of 700mm apart.

  2. Installing the brackets

    Locate the position you measured when ordering your curtains. For wall-fix installations, the brackets attach directly to the wall surface.

    The top of your curtains should sit 5mm higher than the top of your track. 

    Tip

    Use a stud finder to locate timber framing behind the wall lining.

  3. Bracket positioning

    Ideally, fix the first and last brackets into timber framing behind the wall lining within 250mm of each end of the track
