Side Channel Installation Guide

Side Channel Installation Guide

Side channels (lightning tracks) must be installed after the shade is installed and operational. This portion of the guide only applies if side channels were ordered.

These pictures show a shade equipped with Concord (fascia) brackets. The installation is the same!

STEP 1.

Measure the relaxed distance of the hembar from the window and mark the measurement.

​


STEP 2.

Align the center of the side channel to the relaxed distance of the hembar. Mark the screw holes in the side channels to ensure the side channel is installed correctly.

Verify the side channel is level!



STEP 3.

Using these marks, pre-drill into the window jamb using a 1/8" drill bit. Once done, fasten the side channels to the window jamb using the included screws and 1/4" drive.




STEP 4.

Run the shade up and down to verify operation. Make sure the shade is not getting caught up in the track.
