| Step 1 Measure for width: If you have a two-way draw traverse rod—Lay your drapery panels flat. Measure from last pleat on one drapery panel to last pleat on the other drapery panel. Subtract 5” for center overlap. Flat fabric on ends forms drapery return (this is the portion that will go back to the wall). . If you have a one-way draw traverse rod—Lay drapery panel flat. Measure from first to last pleat on drapery panel. Flat fabric on one end forms drapery return. (this is the portion that will go back to the wall). Step 2 Measure for height Two-way and one-way draw. Measure drapery length. Decide where bottom hem is to be ( allow 1” clearance if floor length. Measure up from this point to top of panel. Subtract 3/8” and mark for top bracket screw hole. Step 3 Put up Brackets And Supports Attach your brackets and supports to the wall with supplied screws. Use hollow wall anchors if wall studs are not in desired location. Wall mount—Position brackets according to height and width measurements. Use two brackets for two-way draw. Use one bracket and supports for one-way draw. If supports are included with two-way rod, position at equal intervals. With one-way, position supports as shown in diagram. Ceiling mount. Position according to width measurement. Put screws through holes in top of pulley housing and support clip Step 4 Push rod into brackets. Put top of traverse rod into curved tip of support and roll into position. Lock by turning cam with screwdriver. On inside (smaller) rod section, turn clockwise.
