Installation Guide for allen + roth Drapery Rod Set

Quick guide from the manual

This drapery rod set is designed for a 30-minute assembly. Before starting, ensure you have all parts and the necessary tools: a drill with a 1/4-inch bit, a tape measure, a level, a screwdriver, and a ladder. For wider windows, it is recommended to have a second person assist with the installation.

Package contents

• 3 Rods (A)
• 2 Brackets (B)
• 1 Center Bracket (CC)
• Hardware: 6 screws (AA), 6 anchors (BB)

Installation

1. Remove rods: Take the rods out of the brackets.
2. Mark locations: Place brackets against the wall. Use a tape measure and level to ensure the screw holes are horizontal and parallel. Mark the holes with a pencil.
3. Drill and anchor: For drywall or paneling, drill pilot holes using a 1/4-inch bit. Insert anchors (BB) into the holes. Secure the brackets using screws (AA). Note: If mounting to wood or studs, anchors are not required.
4. Assemble rods: Repeat the mounting process for the center and left brackets. Slide the telescoping rod through the center bracket.
5. Add panels: Feed the drapery panels through the rod from the openings on the left and right. Screw the rods into the brackets.
6. Finish: Wrap the drapery panels around both ends of the bracket for a clean look.

Troubleshooting

• Rod not level: Ensure brackets are installed horizontally using a level.
• Rod is loose: Ensure hooks are anchored correctly to wall studs. If not possible, use the provided anchors and screws.

Care and maintenance

Clean the rod with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, solvents, or polishes, as these may damage the finish.
