Universal bracket for mounting coverings for architectural openings

摘要

A universal bracket assembly for mounting one or more coverings for architectural opening is described. The bracket assembly includes an L-shaped base with a vertical leg and an elongated horizontal leg. The vertical leg has one or more holes passing through it to secure the L-shaped base to a vertical surface such as a wall. The horizontal leg has a plurality of openings disposed on it for mounting the headrails of various coverings to it. In a preferred embodiment an elongated horizontal extension plate is also provided which can be attached to the horizontal leg of the L-shaped base. The extension plate includes openings disposed on it for mounting headrails of coverings thereto. In one variation either or both of the L-shaped base and the extension plate have rules marked on their surfaces so that a user can easily align the headrail between associated bracket assemblies.
