How to Level Top Down Bottom Up Shades

Top Down Bottom Up.JPG

I recently purchases a set of top down bottom up shades from CellularWindowShades.com. I had some issues at first leveling the top down bottom up aspect of the shades, but I found an easy trick that might be helpful for others.

Stack the Shade

You want to stack the shade and its fabric so that it rests a few inches below the top rail. It needs to be 100% compressed and closed.

Make Sure the Shade Is Locked in Place

This is simple, just make sure the strings are locked so the fabric doesn't fall.

Firmly Grasp the Shade in Two Hands

Gently tug the part that isn't level to ensure that both parts are level. I believe the brand of shade's I own are self leveling. If your shades do not have this self leveling feature, this instructable will not work for you.
