Most people think installing their own blinds is hard. Following the simple, step-by-step instructions in this video though makes hanging your custom honeycomb/cellular shades easy to do yourself! Just screw in your brackets, snap on the headrail and you’re done!
Here’s how you do it:
1. Depending on the width of your shade, you may need more than two brackets, which can be centered between your outermost brackets. Once you've decided where each bracket will be placed, mark these areas with a pencil.
2. Use the holes in the top of each bracket to mark where the screws will go.
3. Measure between your marks to make sure they’re aligned before you screw them in. We also recommend pre-drilling pilot holes once everything’s aligned. This makes it easier to drill your screws in.
4. One at a time, place each bracket over the marks or holes you’ve made and drill the screws in loosely. This gives you a little wiggle room for any adjustments to make sure the brackets are straight and aligned.
5. Finish drilling in the screws all the way.
6. With the front of the shade facing you, tilt the headrail slightly back to angle the front inside lip of it onto the brackets.
7. In the same movement, push the headrail back and up to snap it into place. You’ll hear a sharp click when it is.
8. If your shade is not cordless, attach the lift handle and you’re done!
9. Congratulations! You just installed your own cellular shade! Wasn’t that easy?
If you have any questions or need any help with installing your cellular or any of our other shades or blinds, see your product’s installation guide on our website or just give your Customer Care team at call at 888-257-1840. We’re here to help!

I just installed these shades (top down bottom up versions) and just wanted to say thanks for this video! They were very easy to install, snap in, and remove (I wanted to adjust the spacing of a bracket and was easily able to remove the shade, fix, and put it back). I'll be ordering more for my other windows - super happy.

I just opened up the box of my Allen and Roth Cordless Cellular Shades in Linen. I have put up many blinds in my lifetime, but I could not figure out for the life of me in which direction the brackets went. What made it worse was that there WERE NO INSTRUCTIONS in the box. I looked at two videos on RU-vid. The first video showed a man installing the brackets from a distance without a close-up of the direction of the brackets. The second video showed a woman putting up brackets for the same product that look nothing like the brackets that came with the shades. Since I don't want to make a mess with the installation, I'm going to have to hire my handyman to do it for me.

Received my shade from FedEx and had it up all within 30 minutes. Wish you would have showed a video on how to use the white brackets for my cellular shade. Also, would be nice to have 2 clip-on handles instead of just one; makes lifting a little easier. Overall, I am satisfied.

I have spent about 2 hours trying to install a shade with 3 brackets, made sure they are all aligned, it's takes a lot of pressure to get all 3 on apparently.
@luke9822
@luke9822 2 года назад
The manual shows 2-½" spacing on the side in one picture (inside mount diagram on pages 3), and 3" in another diagram on page 2 for "bracket installation". You should get those two to be consistent, or mention that inside mount specifically wants a different measurement from the side of the window wall.

I just got my shade yesterday. The brackets went up easily, yet snapping in the shade is not working. Getting all three brackets to 'snap in place' seems impossible.

Installed these today. The instructions that came with it said to pre-drill using a 3/32" drill bit which I did. But that was way too small compared to the size of the screws supplied. Was too hard to get the screws in so I had to drill bigger holes. I found out after (from the BobVila site), "If you are creating a pilot hole for a screw, the drill bit should be the same size as the body of the screw-not including the threads." SelectBlinds needs to correct their instructions.

Was able to install based on these instructions, but it should be mentioned that for the remote control shades, you need to program the shade BEFORE putting it up to link it to the remote.

I installed the first shade in my office and it has worked like a charm these past few months, so I got a second one for my bedroom window. Came back here to watch the video to remember how to install it....and am glad I commented on the thing I wouldn't have remembered to do this time around. 🤣

And you need to really hone in your focus closer in your videos as to just how the shade is supposed to "click into" the brackets because although you seem to make it look simple, it is NOT.

What size pilot hole should you drill?
@wildcat-diy
@wildcat-diy 4 месяца назад
When there are no instructions or the bit size is not specified, I hold the screw below various drill bits until I find a drill bit that is similar in size to the screw's center and allows me to see the screw thread beyond the bit's width. This helps to avoid drilling too large of a pilot hole. For anchors in drywall, I choose a drill bit size close to but smaller than the anchor width so I can use a hammer to tap it into the wall without the anchor bending.

you don't have any videos that show updated brackets and my brackets are seriously impossible to snap in. I have installed a zillion blinds and these little lightweight blinds should be a snap literally but the brackets are horrible and I cannot snap them in. I chatted with a customer service agent online and she asked me to send her a picture of what brackets they sent me!!! Really??? Shouldn't they know that. I am so frustrated and angry that I ordered from this company when there are a zillion out there.

I have brackets fron 2/2024. Can you update your instructions please? I CANNOT snap the blinds in. I’ve installed so many over the years , but these simply do not fit the bracket. The back rail lip does not reach the bracket protrusion that it is supposed to catch on. So I have $400 blinds I can’t use. None of your videos show this style nor troubleshooting nor closeups of what anyone is doing. They all conveniently skip the snapping in part with any detail or closeup of the clip and bracket.

Select blinds sucks. Do not buy from them. The brackets are all designed terribly. Look up other videos on RU-vid of people complaining about the terrible design of the brackets and how it’s impossible to snap the blinds onto the brackets. You will never be able to put the blinds up and you’ll waste your $$$. Buy somewhere else.
@SelectBlinds
@SelectBlinds 4 года назад
Luke, I apologize that you are having some troubles with the brackets. Oftentimes, the brackets are screwed in too tight for the clip to catch on the ridge on the head rail of the blinds. Try loosening the screws slightly, then try to snap it into the brackets.

Horrible customer service. Extremely poorly packaged and shipped without hardware. Took 3 months to get hardware sent to me. Then they wouldn't replace it due to the wrong size being sent because it was outside of the return window. How am supposed to know it's the wrong size when I couldn't put them up without the hardware? Don't give these people your money.
