    Do you have a video on replacing a broken slat in blinds with looping lift strings? Thank you.

    • @fixmyblinds

      Hi Rachel, We don't have one that specifically covers slat replacement. But we do have a video that shows how to restring a looping lift cord blind here: th-cam.com/video/xDNzTFX_f7g/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=FixMyBlinds. Once you have the strings out from the slats, you can easily remove slats/replace slats as needed before restringing it.

    • @fixmyblinds
      @fixmyblinds  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi there, First, check to see if you have any extra slats at the bottom of your blinds. Sometimes with a little rearranging, you can use what's currently on the blind.
      Otherwise, if there's one in your area, we recommend that you contact Bloomin' Blinds. They might be able to special order those for you: www.bloominblinds.com/find-my-location/

    How to replace slat on a cordless blind, without the lift strings flying back into the spring coil?

    • @fixmyblinds
      @fixmyblinds  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We don't recommend replacing/moving/removing slats from cordless blinds. Once the lifting strings spring back into the top rail, the blind is ruined. Because of that, we don't have any instructions for removing slats from cordless blinds.

      You can still replace it; it will just take a bit longer.

    • @kelite8974
      @kelite8974 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      FixMyBlinds thank you. The string at the top has come undone. I'm not sure we are able to put it back together.

    • @fixmyblinds
      @fixmyblinds  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Have you taken the blinds down yet? The string just may need to be reconnect up inside the top rail of the blinds.

    • @kelite8974
      @kelite8974 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      FixMyBlinds No, we haven't taken them down out of fear we will worsen things. If that's an easy task then we can surely try. I'll let you know how it goes. The left side and middle section strings are the ones that have come out of the bar.

    • @fixmyblinds
      @fixmyblinds  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, taking them down is the first big thing to try. You may be able to easily reattach the string. I'd give it a shot!

      This video is for replacing slats when there are not strings running through the middle of each slat (routless slats). The following video is for a mini blind but the process will work for most standard horizontal blinds: th-cam.com/video/hp5yyQZJS64/w-d-xo.html
