The tip to use the binding clips at the top saved my sanity, especially with my cordless blinds! Thank you!

@SkyManagement Год назад

Yeah. Have to be careful with those. Lol. Glad we could help!

@CampfireCrucifix 2 года назад

Thank you. I'm so glad the engineers that designed these new cordless blinds made it relatively easy to replace individual sections. Kids and blinds do not mix well.

@SkyManagement 2 года назад

We hear you. We were skeptical at first being we have to replace them more frequently due to having multi family but in the end safety is what is most important

@eva5601 2 года назад

My mom broke mine. How about moms, and blinds don't mix well.

@Wonderboy46Z 29 дней назад

Huskies and blinds don’t go well with these blinds either! My boy gets so excited when he sees me or his mama pull in the driveway that he tries to shove his head through the blinds, even though he still hasn’t learned to stick his head through the window glass…yet! LOL!

First video I came to for this exact problem, and it was a tremendous help. Thanks!

@muphin73 Год назад

Thank you so much for this! If I may add a tip. I used one of my tapestry needles to thread the cord back through the slats. Definitely made it faster and easier.

@SkyManagement Год назад

Nice. Might have to try that next time.

@crochetgardenrepeat Год назад

I’m here for my cats😂 I’ve fixed blinds with cords before, but we have cordless ones now and I was stumped on how to fix them. Thank you so much for this tutorial!

@SkyManagement Год назад

glad we could help! with the cordless, just be sure to clip the top of the string so it doesn't try to retract them up into the top.

@crochetgardenrepeat Год назад

@@SkyManagement I did what you said and fixed both of my blinds in under 20 minutes total! I had 6 slats to replace on each. Thanks again!

@AsalynStone Год назад

I wish I would have seen this video with the clips before I just watched a different video and messed up the blinds! Great video though!

I did the same, how did you fix it? My middle string got sucked in. I can’t find it now 😢

@angelzapata9976 Год назад

WOOOW Im so glad i searched this up before making the same mistake twice. I’ve had a cat for over a year and he’s messed them up good. I already bought a new pair and they’re not too cheap, this time I was like “there’s gotta be a way” and searched this up. I’m very happy you saved me some moneys. 🤜🏼🤛🏼😎

@KrystalyaMarie Год назад

Awesome! This is the best video that explains in detail how to do this very simple job. The only thing I was a bit confused about, was what to do with all of the excess string left over from the slats I removed from the bottom to replace the damaged ones (7 in all) above. I finally pulled the bottom piece off, and moved it up just below the final slat of the blind and stuffed the extra string into the holes. It worked perfectly. Thanks for the great video!!

If it is your personal home… sure! That works great. Our residents that rent our nice property from us expect more than taped together blinds so this is a good way to make them “like new”. Good idea for personal home use though!

@g6556 Год назад

What do you do if you don’t clip the middle string and lose it in the top of the blinds 😬

@SkyManagement Год назад

then you my friend... are FOOKED! You could try and fish it out of the top but would require taking off the blinds to do this. It can be done unless it is sucked back completely inside the mechanism in which case... unfortunately it would be cheaper to buy new blinds.

@brucehaulley8117 3 месяца назад

@wowg313 Год назад

@SkyManagement Год назад

Yeah, if they are cordless blinds, make sure to clip it at the top really good so it doesn't get sucked up into the top. I've had that happen.

@@Oceandesert16 Same situation here. I swear manufacturers plan this crap. Why in the world would it not have a stopping mechanicsm to keep it from being sucked into the top spring loaded mechanism. so that you could pull back out.

@eva5601 2 года назад

Threading them back is time consuming. 😮‍💨 I felt like throwing them in the trash, and buying a new one.

@SkyManagement 2 года назад

Yeah. I’d the broken ones are up at the top it can take some time. When it’s the bottom ones, it goes pretty fast.

@eva5601 2 года назад

I did the left part on Friday, and the right side on yesterday. When I finished, I realized, that I threaded them on the outside of the looped threads, and not on the inside. 😡 I left them this way, but I am going through an obsessive compulsive disorder episode, because of this. Although the blinds go up and down just as well.

@muphin73 Год назад

If you still need to do it or need to do it again, get yourself a tapestry needle. Made easy work of putting the string back through.

@iniwebdesign 3 месяца назад

I messed up in the process and the strings have fully retracted into the spring mechanism. I'm not sure what happened but they dont appear to make a stopping mechanism so once the strings retract now the whole window blind is defunct? wtf is that. I have to buy a whole replacement? I swear they manufacturer stuff like this on purpose to make more money.

@Rootropday 2 года назад

Please help. I didn't know to hold the string in place first and the cord retracted. How do I fix this?

@SkyManagement 2 года назад

oh no! yeah, if they are cordless blinds, then you have to put a clip of something at the top before you untie them or the cords can retract up into the top. unfortunately, to fix that you would have to take them down and fish the string out from the top while trying not to spill out all of the slats since they are no longer attached to the rest of the blinds. This will be a pretty big pain, and I think if it were me, I would just scrap them and buy a new set. but, I'm sure its possible to fish the string back out. let us know if you get it straitened out and have any tips for people facing the same issue.

@Rootropday 2 года назад

@@SkyManagement I got the strings back out. However they nolonger go up and down. I will just need to buy a new one. I will try to come back here if/when I move out of my apartment and need to finally replace my blinds. Until then I do not plan to replace them as I have a toddler who will most definitely destroy them again.

After I get new ones tho my plan is to tear apart the old ones and figure out how the mechanics work. As I do with most of the things I manage to break.

@caseypeta3564 2 года назад

There’s a little metal piece stuck on my strings, should I just cut it off?

@SkyManagement 2 года назад

If you are referring to a little metal piece at the bottom to hold the bar on I would not see why you could not cut it off and then tie it back on when done… or just make a fat knot underneath in place of the metal piece. If the metal piece is on the string holding the individual slats… that would be a new one to me as I have never seen that. Proceed at your own risk ⛔️

@sarahtaylor7152 2 года назад

Mine had this also. It is a tiny metal clamp that I was able to slide off with pliers. It was to small for me to re-open and use again but I just tied it off like in the video and I was fine.

@mvenky7497 2 года назад

Where can I find single slats? I have 2 dogs they jumped on window shades they rip almost 5 of them on accident, Google is not very helpful. Please give some suggestions if you know by any chance we highly appreciate your help and thank you for great video.

@SkyManagement 2 года назад

To be honest… you may be better off getting a new set at this point. I looked and it’s hard because depending on the size, color, material… etc you will find it difficult If your blinds had extra at the bottom (too long to begin with… you could remove 5 from the bottoms and replace the broken ones? Maybe?
