    Wow, Thank you so much; I have lost the blinds instruction manual and I am having minor troubles with one of the clips not closing properly. I'm guess I need to replace it. this helped me figure that out. I had just watched a video about replacing that one clip, then saw your video about the rest of the blinds. again, thank you.

    I didn’t know I had to open the blinds before drawing them back. Now they are stuck halfway, and won’t move in either direction.What can I do to avoid breaking them? Update: I used a long screwdriver as leverage to separate and move the hooks so the panels are back where they belong. So I’m good, but my runners must need lubricating or something. Because when the slats are open, and I try to dray them back, they don’t move very well. I don’t want to pull the cord to force them. What should I do? Thank you.

    Is it possible to repair the string that draws open the slats from left to right? The slats still turn but they no longer open from left to right because the string seems to have come off its track. The string will pull the tracks to the left but to push them back to the right you have to do this by hand.

    if you have torn the hole on the end of the slat that clips in to hang, flip the blind over and make a new slot/hole with a paper punch, punch a single hole in the center then nibble left and right to make it like a slot and rehang it.

I’ve used multiple lubricants running it down the rail and it leaks all down the blinds and on the floor. I’m using blaster silicone lubricant.
