How to fix a shade that won't go up anymore (internal strings) 

Watching your video has saved me time money and a lot of hassle. I had a knot at the top but wouldn’t have worked it out without your video. Thank you very very much. God bless you.

THANK YOU! Saved my shade, my money and my sanity!

Saved me a huge headache, thanks! String was just wrapped around knot. Had no clue sans this vid.

This video saved my butt! I went in from the side with a wire hanger and was able to fish the knot and line out enough to undo the knot. Fixed my issue thank you!

Huge thank you for this, one side of our shade “broke” about a month ago, and I was going to replace it with a new one today when I realized it doesn’t fit. Found this video and sure enough, a knot in one of the strings! Saved me about $70 (if it’s not a standard measurement shade then it’s not cheap!), thank you!!

Thanks millions. Found the knot but couldn't get the shad off of the window and couldn't fish the string all the way out so ended up cutting on the back side to get to the knot. That worked perfectly.

Thank you Ryan!! The hooked wire coat hanger worked perfectly. Our knot originated in the bottom mechanism as well.

This video is the one that solved my issues!!! thank you soooo much for posting this!!!! 😊

Thank you. This worked perfectly

excellent from,Fix My Blinds and Shades

I didn't have a knot. The problem with mine is that one of the cords fell off the wheels in the top and got trapped. I just had to pull on it to release it from where it was stuck and it was fixed.

Thanks this worked lol, I don’t even care that I ripped it a little

i need to fix these blinds in my home but can't find parts/info and the mechanism seems unique. wondering which brand/model did you instal then fix? thanks.

Thank you, thank you, and thank you for a most excellent video. I used a small drain snake to grab the loop of the knot, being careful to pull the snake out flat to the cell surface to avoid tearing it. The only question remaining is can I still blame the cat for this debacle or does it happen in cat less households as well.

Thank you definitely worked 👍👍👍

I had this problem and dissembled the bottom and pulled the string through so that the knot came out the bottom, where I was then able to undo it. But the shade still hangs at the spot where it wasn't able to go up before and is lifeless. I tried pulling it all the way down, then yanking a few times at a 45 degree angle, but that didn't help. Any tips? Is your blind one of the Norman cordless honeycomb (the child safety ones) ones?

Fantastic!

This is my third video whilst my blinds hang literally in the balance. The first one didnt help the second one seems to have broken peoples blinds even fuether and here is the third video so i really hope i can fix these blinds 😂

Use a crochet hook

Tear the fabric?? I prefer to leave it without repairing!!!
