You held out on the most common issue for last. Well played sir
And thanks to you I fast forwarded all the way to the end! Thank you sir! Well played!! :)
My love / hate relationship with verticals & you nailed all the fixes! Thank you so much !
Thank you! This is probably one of the best vertical blinds repair video on UA-cam - simple and to the point!
I often have problems with our window blind slat gets break. Your video will definitely will help me.
Awesome!! Thanks a lot for sharing these tips.
Thank you for clear directions to replace teeth so it turns with the rest of the blind. Saved me major replacement dollars. Blessings!!!
Thank you for an awesome video. I learned several things in this video that I did not know before. After watching this video I repaired my vertical blind. The paper clip was the one that did it for me. Thank you again for the video.
Terrific video that solved several problems and made it easy. Thank you for a great tutorial.
Thank you for the last tutorial with the slit breaking on the blind!!
Thank you! This is the best instructions regarding the gears on UA-cam!
Great video! Been doing apt maintenance for awhile now! Still learning something new everyday! Even as simple as this lol thank you!
Glad we could help!
Perfect easy fix for my stuck slats and a lot of other good info about vertical blinds. Thank you!
No problem!
This was very helpful in a pinch. Thank you so much!
I’ve been living in a brand new apartment complex for six months and even the maintenance man didn’t know how to fix blind issue where was off one gear. Thank you so much. Everything looks aesthetically pleasing now.
Wow! So good! You answered and showed everything that I was needing to know about those darn blinds. Thank you
Thanks Buddy! Couple of my slats came off and I used your paper clip technique and it worked 👍🏼
This video is so helpful to learn what to look for to make a repair. Thank you.
This just saved me money!! I just bought new ones and since my door locks in the middle my son broke the gear after only a week of them hanging. This was why I bought new ones😂 thought because of that little piece I was going to again. Thank you thank you so very much!!!
Paper clip worked like a charm. Thank you
Ross, thanks so much. You did a very good job of explaining the fix I needed!
The first one is exactly my problem, thanks for the instruction!
No problem! Glad we could help :)
I fought with that little gear piece for well over an hour trying to get it back in its hole. After watching your video, I realized I had been trying to put it in wrong. Thanks for the info
Thanks a lot. This was what I was looking for. Fixed my blinds easily.❤
Just 'clicked' one of the askew vertical panels to the right position. Great tip!
I had the first problem with the blind that would not settle with the rest because it was facing the wrong way by 90 degrees. It took a bit of courage to grab the mechanism to twist it back to the same as all the other carriers, but I swallowed hard and twisted. A loud click followed, and the job was done. Many, many thanks for a super video.😀
I have the same problem and its not budging argh!!!
Very nice! Feel good that I saved money and the environment. Kudos to UA-camrs like YOU…
Awe, thanks! We are always happy to help.
Thanks Ross! The tape and paper clip fix was really helpful! 😊👍✨
Omg that paper clip tip is brilliant!
Awesome. Big thumbs up. I had the one blind that spun loosely. Followed your instructions and IT WORKED! I took an up-close picture of the connection area/plastic hardware so that I could better assess how to reinsert everything. Your instructions were great. I would never have figured out how to do this. Thanks.
Awesome! I love hearing the success stories. Thanks for supporting our channel :)
The link to this video should be posted next to every set of vertical blinds ever, haha. Thank you so much!
Great content. You have no idea how a short practical tutorial video can also save someone’s life sometimes.
Thank you for the support :)
Dec-24 @London- just wanted to say thank you very much. You saved my 20 £
Thank I so much for the video I just fixed the slat in my blinds that was turning around.
Thank you you saved me so much frustration.
OMG I just fixed my blind! Thank you!!!
Very useful video. Thanks man!
You were exactly right the first video you showed was my problem. Thank you
Thank you! The paper clip helped! 😊
Thank you for this helpful video!
This guy amazing at explaining
Thank you. Your video was very helpful.
Thank you for video clip it’s awesome help me to fix my vertical blinds
I m here for my broken blind thank you, god bless you
I’ve had all these problems within one year. Never knew blinds were so janky. Next time, I’m getting curtains.
Haha. Yeah, curtains are simpler for sure.
The 📎 worked. Thank you!
I hate these shitty blinds the apt makes me use
Yeah I moved in and each day one slat falls down I will replace it with curtains period!
Greedy f-ing companies MAKE them like that so you’ll spend more money replacing them. When that happens never replace them with a like kind, like you said switch to curtains or something
Very useful content, to the point. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you! I'm a master at this now I help people all the time I had one that was off clicks so I loosened it to when it would be open and started clicking them all evenly until theu were perpendicular it was 2 clicks on each and then I twisted it and it was like it was brand new I like these alot especially mine it's in my master bed room I have a deck off the bedroom and it used all the time so when the blinds don't work it's a big hassle. Thank you very much!
Thank you for these tips rental company will not come fix my blinds says its "MY RESPONSIBILITY" . I disagree with them but thank you hopefully this will fix the problem
Wow thank you I've fixed my blinde been driving me mad for months. 😊😊
Great video quality and to the point. I just fixed mine in 5 minutes! I wish you had a link so I could send a few dollars. I’ve seen that on other videos and have sent $ as a thank you for saving me time and cash. 👍👍
Thank you so much!
Thank you for this video!
No problem! Glad we could help :)
Well I have tried to concentrate on the subject :)) Tks a million!
That was awesome that was fast to fix thank you
Fantastic thank you my blind was sticking.
thank you so much for your video. I had no idea it was that easy, I almost bought new blinds. 🙂
Glad I could help!
Though the quick fix with a paper clip was a great video and I did fix it temporarily
thank you. I just moved into an apartment and I have all three of those problems. the day I moved in maintenance came in and said they fixed them all but they're all still having the same problem
Well done! Thank you.
Our pleasure!
Brilliant many thanks
Wow - thank you.
Thank you!
Thank you, awesome.!
Thank you
Thanks!
Thanks. Awesome information. I had one vane which didn’t turn for more than a year. Viewed your video and now it works. SMH
Thank U very much for this, not everyone can afford to buy new
Excellent.
You are awesome !!!!
4:56 was helpful, thanks!
My problem is the swizzle stick doesnt turn, Im going to see if its the gear like on the carrier just popped out. Thanks for showing me how to check for it.
Thanks.
Thanks for this!!! I hate rhose rebellious, renegade vanes!!! And, for the ones that tear like that last one you showed, I just cut it straight across underneath the hole, then make a new hole and snap it back in. It's a little shorter than the others, but it's not that big a deal!
Awesome!
Thank you.
Happy to help!
Super helpful
Thanks for watching :)
Great content
Thank you 😊
Great video!!! Easy to follow and to the point😊 But my metal rod is not attached at one end. Is there a way to fix this? I tried gluing but duh it won't turn. Thanks for your help🙂
Thanks for your clear repair instructions, very helpful. I have 2 sets of these blinds installed on sliding glass doors in a short term rental. The downstairs set operates well, no problems. The set on the main floor are used frequently, and are often damaged by renters unfamiliar with operating them. Now the problem is that the white cord used to slide the panels open and closed is jammed, so will not move. I am able to manually slide the panels open. Is there a way to fix this cord?
It’s possible that if you take apart the gear part where the cord goes that you could get it going again. But, to be honest, We got rid of all of the corded ones at our rentals. Tenants seemed to struggle with them more.
Thanks so much for this instructional video.
I heard there is a repair kit for the broken ones rather than doing the paper clip, do you know where I can buy it?
But even the paper clip repair is a blessing as well as the other tips.
Nice, simple, informative vid. Thank you. You mention a link to buy slats but I can’t find it. Can you please provide that link?
Thanks much SKy !!! Do expect any click while inserting this flat part like @2.58. Looks like it's missing in my case
Question what of the rotator won’t rotate the blinds how do i fix that?
Did you ever figure it out ? Thats whats wrong with mines
I can here for this as well
Same
Same
Obviously the gear is missing above the rod clip
Excellent video! I have the clips who hold the blind broken, do you know where can i buy it?
Thanks, great video! Now if only, you could show me how to keep my toddler from pulling them down after i fix them with the paper clip trick. 🤔 Maybe i should try heavy duty staples
Awesome
One Click Out, Spot On, Thanks!!! - 👍
amazon sells special super sticky clear stickers to fix the slats hole issue, which should hold up pretty well, and are less than $10. gonna give em a shot.
Very helpful. Where can i find the replacement parts for this?
Great! Thank you. But the whole blinds won’t turn? Any idea on how to solve it?
Nice video, I have vertical blinds on my sliding doors entering outdoor porch but when opens it all pulls on one side when opening, how do I fix or change that??
I did that a very old vertical blinder I am currently renting and it snapped and broke down since the plastic is old. It was funny to me. 😂
Nice video. Another problem i have and need help with is the wand will not open or close blinds. Any tips? Thank you.
I'm having the same issue, Sky Management. The stick is stuck on my blinds as well and won't twist one way or the other. It feels like there is a lot of force stuck behind it. Note, it still freely slides down the track, just won't twist.
Can’t believe no one commented on your muscles, your video was great too. Hmmm. I have the first issue like others. I tried to turn it all the way to the left it moved somewhat but not enough to make a big difference- it actually seemed to move back. Is there a trick to this? Maybe I have to push up or down. Scared I’ll break it!
Thanks Ross, When I pull the string all the blinds don't move to one side. Any ideas? thx
I have new Levolor vertical blinds, and mine don't seem to turn as show in your video. Have you seen any blinds like those?
Could you put up a different link to the individual replacement blinds since your link is unavailable? Thanks for letting us know that we don't have to replace the whole set. Big savings!
Where can you get new gears for vertical blinds
Thanks so much for the video, exact and to the point! On a different note, I had to watch this twice, since you look just like my ex! Lol. But, you are way more jacked! Thanks again, and yes I did sub! 🌞
Thank you so much for this the first problem is my problem and I tried turning the little plastic thing but it will not budge :( Help! thank you
I'm sorry, it's tough to help without seeing it myself. you could try removing the slat connecter piece and then putting it back on straight. but be careful not to lose the little gear piece behind it.
Where can I get some loose vertical panels to replace my blinds
What’s happens if the clip to hold the blind in place is broken?
