I’m pretty handy, but for some reason this was one of the most difficult things to install. Honestly, I think it was just the screws provided for the brackets. I don’t know if they are intended for drywall instead of wood (thinking that was likely my issue now), but even with predrilling, they were insane to try to use. Other than that, they turned out really nice, very smooth to raise/lower and the valence with end-caps gives a polished look. Heads up- for interior installs, the blinds are almost 3/4” shorter than the opening. It is fine from the standpoint they fit the opening, but it made the bracket fitting a lot less snug than expected.
