Installing a Zipper Slider or Puller on a Zipper 

Legend. Helped me fix a jacket that I was told couldn't be fixed without replacing the entire zipper (restiching etc.). Simple process after watching your video. Took me all of 5 minutes (taking a zipper puller from one of the unused jacket pockets) and jacket is good to go. Thank you!

Cut off stopper and reattached zipper pull! Worked like a charm! Thank You!

Really clear and helpful, explains each type of zipper and both open and closed starting situations. Helped me make easy and cheap repairs.

you have made it soooooo easy to put zipper together!! First time, I found magically install zipper instantly... T hank you!!

At 3:00 I just cut off one end, on the side where the zipper is always attached. Then I could just bring it to the bottom and zip as normal and save cutting off the other stopper. Thanks for this 👍

we should have stayed in the stone age and used bone buttons

Wouldn't it be easier to just open the puller a bit with pliers if that's all u need? And clamp it on? Im so annoyed rn.... this is too much work! Argh..

Please search youtube for the following video which will show you how to shorten and install stops in zippers: "Zipper Shortening & Stops - Part 4 of Zippers Explained in Detail"

Thank you! Your video made it quick and easy!

Thank you!!!!!! This video really helped with my problem.

Worked great! Thanks for the video!

cool. saved med money & piqued my curiosity. flowers for you! 💐

Thanks this video helped a lot! I didn't have to cut the stopper, I just bended and slid the puller between the teeth and the stopper.

Some of your comments are so rude and ugly. If you don't like the video, don't watch. You don't like his voice, don't listen! But to make disgusting remarks only tells me you people are low-lifes!!!

Thank u sooo much! this video was awesome even with the great close up!

Big oof. My zipper fell off my jacket, this isnt the first time this happened to this jacket... But I've never had to cut off the stoppers tho. The stopper groves are kinda a T shape so I slid the zipper along the stopper groves and kinda forced it back on. No cutting necessary.

Thanks so much!!! Your video saved my favourite bag. I have never thought, that it is so easy to install a slider.

how do you install zipper stops on a jacket after you cut them off exactly?

You saved my life, and my sewing project. Thanks!

THANK YOU! I was trying to get a non-locking zipper back onto the slider for so long. This took two seconds 😂

Thank you thank you i am so thankful to you Because you helped me and also saved my money

How do u install zip stopper

How do you get the slider on to the zipper if you need to put the flat bottom side on first if the zipper is partially open.

If your zipper pull is broken then use a Zippydodah - just search on the name

Thank you, You made it looked easy

It would have helped actually showing a jacket or sweatshirt, where the tab fell off.

perfect , thank you so much

Yeap, pretty sure my jeans don't look like that in both end, is like they are lock inside the jeans itself. send help.

Only easy if the zip is not already installed in a garment. If you want to install a new slider to a jacket with the zip in situ then it’s not as easy at all!

Thank you - pulling zip side apart to reinstall pull at the top seemed counterintuitive but it worked and rescued my project. 👍

Zippers suck meanwhile the snap buttons on a 12 year old jacket in tact.

I think your leg goes great with your voice

This doesn't help me. The zip is already sewn in place, so no ends to slide the slider onto

thank you very much.. first time trying to do this... i was stuck for a looong time lol.. thank you for the vid

what if your slider fell apart / it's in two pieces?

This was soo frustrating but I did it.

Thanks for tutorial :)

Why dont you just pull out one of the teeth then slide the toggle back on. Then do a couple stitches where you pulled the tooth out and the toggle wont come off. I have been doing it this way for years work so good and you dont have the zip fraying at the top just stitch into facing as usual.

yes, yes,you save my denim sewing project...! Thanks

Just found this video and wanted to tell you how helpful it was, and say thanks for such a detailed and informative explanation.

my non-locking slider came off, I just cut a bit off the top on one side to slide in back in.

You are working on a nylon zipper mine is metal, do you do it the same?

if my jacket got stopper on both side, should I cut one of them to put the slider back? is it the only way? my jacket would be broken then

Two hours later and your video did it for me!😭😭 all I had to do was bend the top of that side a bit, thankfully didn’t have to cut it all off

thank you, just what I needed to know to fix this tiny purse

will this work on a leather coat hood ,that has no slider at all ? pretty big zipper

so installing a locking zipper to a jacket would also work if you wanted it to be a double zipper right ?

Thank you for your help!

Hi, would this zip puller work on a replacement rear plastic window on a cabriolet?... PLEASE let me know, if it wont do, can ANYONE help me find the zip puller I need for a renault megane rear window, yr 2002?... thanks Marguerite

Its not the same with non one cause some of them got the little stopper on the jacket

This video worked great, thank you.

Thanks you! I was replacing the slider on my greenhouse door. I was trying to put the slider on skinny end down because that's the way the old slider was. When I put the Fat end facing down it went on with in seconds!

Is there anyway to put a new slider on when the ends of the zipper are sewn into the fabric (a waist bag in my case)?

I need to replace a YKK 5CNS slider for a nylon coil zipper. I can find 5CN sliders, but not 5CNS. Can you advise on where to find a replacement?

Extremely simple, but you didn't show how to fix a zip slider when the zip to attach it to has stop ends... to tough for you?

cool

Thanks!!

For replacing a non-locking slider on my jacket: what if I don't want to cut off the stoppers at the top?

do you have a solution to replace only the pull that broke off from one of my winter boots? thanks

Thank you so much this really helped me. I've watched other videos but the method they used didn't work.

Like it!

Great instruction!

After you cut the zipper stops off the zipper is Useless. lol

Great videos, but how to fix the starter post in the bottom of a coat zipper, it almost came off and is hanging on a thread and it is very difficult to insert it into the slider.

my slide fell out, i can't cut it lol thanks anyway.

i think tf not this voice gtg

Your tutorial is really helpful to me. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much !

So, push the thing onto the thing. Got it.

How do you install zipper stops?

Thank you ! A very helpful video

wonderful, tks so much

thank you

Thank you for the help.

that ridiculous fake voice XD

thank you so much

Super Helpful!!!!!

Hi, good video..

you saved my life

thank you

Yes, this guy is a robot.

awesome

This is completely worthless. So the only way to fix it is if the zipper broke while the coat was zipped but you weren't wearing it(!) or cut the zipper making it worthless. Gee, thanks.
