– Home Decorators Collection cordless blinds
– Stud finder
– Level
– Screwdriver
– Measuring tape
– Wall anchors (if necessary)

Step 2: Measure Your Window
Accurate measurements are crucial for a successful installation. Use a measuring tape to measure the width and height of your window. Add approximately 1 inch to both the width and height to ensure the blinds fit properly. Write down these measurements for future reference.
Step 3: Mark the Mounting Brackets

Using a screwdriver, securely attach the mounting brackets to the wall. Make sure the brackets are tight and level before proceeding.
Step 5: Attach the Blinds to the Mounting Brackets
Remove the blinds from their packaging and position them on the mounting brackets. Slide the brackets into the brackets on the back of the blinds. Make sure the blinds are aligned with the brackets and that the brackets are securely fastened to the wall.
Step 6: Adjust the Blinds
Once the blinds are attached to the mounting brackets, adjust the slats to your desired position. You can also adjust the tilt of the slats for privacy or light control.
Step 7: Test the Blinds
Pull the lift cord to raise the blinds and ensure they operate smoothly. Test the tilt mechanism to make sure the slats can be adjusted as needed.
