YX HEADRAIL SLOT PLACEMENT
Below applies to Natural Shades.
The slot placement is not guaranteed - the below is just a reference of where the slots may be placed.
It is not guaranteed that a remake will have the same slot placement as the original order. The factory does not keep records of slot placement. You cannot request to have a specific location of slots.
Typically professional installers will understand the slot placements do not need to be equally spaced as long as enough brackets and slots are used, the shade will be secure in the window. Questions usually arise from internet customers that are doing installation themselves and notice the slot placement.
