Three years and your video still helps out. Thanks!

I consider myself pretty handy but these blinds almost destroyed my spirit. I was about to burn these blinds in a blaze of glory (and rage) when I saw your video with the INVALUABLE tip: bend the top part of the bracket so it has clearance. So simple. I cannot thank you enough!

😄👍same here.

Searched for this video when Grandma needed new blinds for her window. Great help!

Watching this video saved me a lot of grief. I bought Hampton Bay blinds, followed the instructions and thought every thing was OK. Unfortunately, the blinds would not "seat" correctly in the brackets causing the blinds to fall out of the brackets when I pulled down on the blinds. The answer was right here in this video. The part where Ken mentioned pulling down on the bracket tab with a needle nose pliers was EXACTLY what I needed to do. One I did so, wham-o! The blinds seated perfectly and no longer fall out of the brackets. Thanks so much, Ken.

Thank you!! Bending the tabs saved me hours of frustration!! These new Home Depot blinds are not easy to install.

Thank you for the excellent video. Your tip to bend the holder was the best. Saved me so much time!

THANK YOU for the tip about bending the bracket. I tried to hang the blinds for a long time and was very frustrated by not being able to get them into the bracket. Your tip saved the day!

Thank You! Couldn't have done it without your directions.

I almost went crazy trying to hook them up!!😀 thank you for the tips!!🙏

I learned how to install my blinds from this video

So did I

Omg😱 I felt crazy for a bit until I watched your video... thank you so much for your great direction on how to install my blinds😊

I never installed blinds before. Your video is amazing and I did bend tabs down. And it worked!!! Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! I consider myself pretty handy but these blinds kicked my butt. I could not figure out why they kept falling out until I watched your video. God bless you!

Thank you! I’m going to try putting mine up tomorrow. Wish me luck!

hooking them up was easy. Learning how to make them go back up was difficult. You have to twist the stick so that the open blinds are level with the bottom ones, then gently lift the bottom with 2 hands

Even a pro needs pointers once in a while. Thanks for keeping my reading glasses in truck w/ your quick overview .

2022 Just used this video today, really grateful thanks a lot!

great demonstration

Thank you. I got a pair of these today from somebody who didn't want them anymore. Plan to install them on my outdoor swing. Couldn't figure out how to get the stupid things to lower since they had no lowering cord. Now I know. Thanks much.

Yup thanks!! I was so proud I got my blinds up today, but noticed the front wasn't hooking on... demoralizing! thought it was me... almost moved the brackets out.... BUT your 'tip' to use the needlenose pliars to bend that bit down a bit -- might save my sanity! I'll try in the morning and let you know! thanks!

Awesome training!

Hi Ken I was changing my Hamilton bay 1 in blind and the new type are very hard to install I had the older ones and they were very easy to installed I only bought it because I like the aluminum ones and the wooden blind doesn't't fit my window but I accidentally put the blind back to front and it was very hard to come off I was looking on your channel how to take it back off and I tried the screw driver and it worked So I was happy 😂 Thanks for your video

Thank You man. very good video and description. keep up the good work.

Thank you, with your help I was able to put my blinds up

Always a huge thank you to you that take the time to put out helpful videos, so thank you. One thing that I would add is when you are measuring out the brackets, take in mind where the gears are for the blinds. You don't want to try to snap on the blinds to a bracket that is smack in the way of a gear, it won't work well. So just off set it a bit and you'll be fine.

Thank you I destroyed 2 of these....cause I couldn't figure out why the wouldn't snap in...i needed the needlenose...this was helpful...thankyou I felt so unhandy

what a pain in the ass they were. So grateful that you posted this!!

You did a great job thank you.

very helpful, thanks for help!

Great video!

Thank you! It must be Harbor brand, because I couldn’t figure out when I hung them and pulled down, they fell on me! I had to use pliers and pull that top bracket WAY out. Great video!

Thanks for the video, Ken Big help

Thank you for take the time to do this video. 😉👌

Ty sr. Did it first try

The only thing I needed was the positioning of the Brackets and was getting frustrated and Everytime you showed the bracket it was either too fast a shot or too far away ! But Eventually I got it right ! Thanks this was still better than the Instructions ! Hampton Bays Bracket positioning being Drawn on paper Was Horrendously Poor !

Ken, do the directions explain a way to remove uneeded slats. My window height is about 52" and the default size height is 64". I feel I could remove about 6 or 7 slats and just leave 3 or 4 extras accumulating at the bottom when the blinds are completly pulled down.

Yes, it is in the directions.

Thank you!!!

OMGNESS!! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

Hi, there were no directions in the blinds box, thanks for your video!

So the window frame here is the drywall or does it have wood in there? If it's drywall, do we need drywall anchor to install those screws? Thanks!

mine is drywall BUT just under that 1/2 inch drywall is wood. Just make sure your screw is long enough and you are good.

Please explain more as to how you snap the blind into the brackes

not much to it, just don't force to the point you are bending the metal.

Thanks 🙏

I got them clicked and then it falls down as soon I try to roll. Even rolling is not happening 😔 I have strings on side and middle

Ken, do you know how to reset a vinyl blind that will not go up anymore? I have searched on the internet and all the recommendations provided didn't work. I have had the blinds for 3 years. I use them on a daily basis, multiple times, so maybe it is time to replace. Please advise.

I don't know if you can reset these blinds. Vinyl blinds are inexpensive, I would just go and buy new a new one and problem solved.

Ken, thank you for the quick reply. I did some more research and I have one more thing to try. If that doesn't work, then I'll go and purchase a new blind. Sigh.... trying not to put so much trash in our landfills. Thank you!

on the clip that holds the blind in place, you can use your hand or a screwdriver to release from the mounting bracket.

Installation is done, but these brand new blinds will not raise. Pulled them all the way out, brought them out to 45 degree angle, and gave them the snap everyone suggests: nothing. Went and got another blind returning the first. Same thing. Clearly user error, but makes me long for the old cords to raise and lower blinds!
