a level attached to the support band;
a first slot defined in the support catch and a second slot defined in the support catch;
a hanger band having a hanger slot and a hanger catch wherein the first slot is configured to receive the hanger band and the support slot is configured to receive the hanger catch when a roller shade bracket attached to the hanger band is in a mounted position;
a wiring channel defined between the support band and the hanger band to receive a first wire, a first connector, a second wire and a second connector when the roller shade bracket is in the mounted position; and,
wherein the second slot is configured to receive the hanger band when the roller shade bracket is in an access position and configured to position the hanger catch away from the support slot.
2. The assembly of claim 1 including a hanger slot arm configured to be received in the first slot and the second slot.
3. The assembly of claim 1 wherein the first connector and the second connector are connected by magnetic force.
4. The assembly of claim 1 including a lock configured to secure the hanger band to the support band.
5. The assembly of claim 1 wherein the hanger band is a first hanger band and a second hanger band is supported by the support band.
6. The assembly of claim 1 wherein the hanger band include a left roller shade bracket and a right roller shade bracket affixed to the hanger band.
7. The assembly of claim 6 including a roller shade supported by the left roller shade bracket and the right roller shade bracket.
8. A roller shade mounting assembly comprising:
a support band configured to be attached to a support surface, wherein the support band includes a support catch and a support slot;
a hanger band having a hanger slot and a hanger catch wherein the hanger slot is configured to receive the support catch and the support slot is configured to receive the hanger catch when a roller shade bracket attached to the hanger band is in a mounted position;
a wiring channel defined between the support band and the hanger band to receive a wire when the roller shade bracket is in the mounted position;
an electrical strip attached to the support band and connected to an external power source; and,
an electric contact connected to the roller shade bracket and configured to contact the electrical strip when the roller shade bracket is in the mounted position.
9. The assembly of claim 8 wherein the support band and the hanger band are configured to obscure the wire from an observer when the roller shade bracket is in the mounted position.
