ABSTRACT:
The shim of the present invention is preferably molded from plastic or the like and has a planar front surface of a width substantially equal to the width of an L-bracket and a height which is substantially equal to the height of the wood molding to which it is intended to be secured. The rear face of the shim has a pattern formed thereon which is complementary to or the negative of the shape of the face of the molding. Thus, when the shim is placed onto the molding, the planar front surface is essentially vertical. A plurality of elongated slots are formed through the shim between the front and rear surfaces thereof to accommodate mounting hardware for the L-brackets or similar hardware. Utilizing the shims of the present invention essentially guarantees that the mounting hardware for drapes or blinds or other window treatments will be properly oriented.
