How to Remove Roman Shades From Their Brackets

The brackets allow you to quickly lower the Roman shade from the window without removing any screws.

1. Lift the Roman shade's hanging portion up to gain access to the head rail, which is the long bar that the shades are supported from.

2. Hold the head rail in one hand and turn it so the back angles down. If you have cordless Roman shades, you will need to insert a small screwdriver through the bracket, toward the back edge of the head rail, to free the head rail.

3. Lift the Roman shade's head rail off the brackets and bring it forward. Once the head rail clears the brackets, lower the Roman shades from the window.
