I love you. And not afraid to say it. Found that little fence-like gear laying on the floor of my apartment. My sliding window looks directly into my bathroom and the whole week I have been having to make sure to not flash my neighbors. This project is getting done right now. Thank you.
One thing to mention is that you don't need to make sure the part is perfectly centered when you place it in with the screwdriver. If you click the stem in after and then twist the turning rod back and forth a couple times it'll eventually become centered like the rest of them.
Great video 👍 Aside from my cheap slumlord. I can't understand why ANYONE would buy these blinds. They are 100% guaranteed to break. Not to mention, completely hideous.
I just moved into an apartment complex last month and I had three different problems with my vertical blinds and this was one of them. maintenance came out the day I moved in and said they fixed all three but they did not.
Can you tell me where to order those particular slats at? I am recently divorced & very technically challenged. I measured them & I got 9 feet tall & 9 inches thick but I can’t find any slats that size but yours look about right lol. Thank you!🙏🏽😁
Excelente video!!! Muy bien explicado!! Mi ingles es muy malo🤣, pero tu explicacion es excelente!!! Muchas gracias !!!! Good job men!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Wish mine did that, my hook or blind holder is not open on one end, meaning you can't just pop it out. Or so far I haven't figured out how it snaps out. You can't get to it from above. Guess I'll keep looking, there's bound to be one like mine I can look at on youtube.
i couldnt figure it out.. My blinds are made differently because there is no way to pull that other piece out without breaking the slat. I bought these trash blinds from home depot and within a month they were all broken and out of place and wouldnt twist back properly. Didnt really help but i guess the video was okay for those who have these types of blinds or whatever.
What is it, when your Vertical blinds click when you try and change the direction of the blinds. They make a loud clicking sound? And they will not turn in the opposite direction.
Thank You very much. The gear fell out of one of my vertical blinds and it’s been driving me nuts not knowing where to put it back in. These instructions couldn’t have been any simpler.
Does anyone know how to keep the long stick that you twist to open the blinds from falling. Sometimes it falls when i close or open them and its annoying to be putting it back too often.
Good video. Had to go through a bunch to find one with good audio and camera work showing the gear comb and stem up close and in action. I understand it now. Thanks.
Awesome video. Thank you! So clear and well explained. We would get charged lots of $ any time we needed to get the blinds fixed. The company went out of business and I decided to take on the challenge and do it myself. I'm so happy to be able to fix them for under $10! Thank you!

nope...it certainly does not.
Thank you so much. I didn't no idea it was called a gear and clip. I need to pop out clip. You saved me. Thank you.

My apartment complex has them, they're so dated and often damaged from operating incorrectly
They come standard in most houses in the west coast
Thnx for Sharing.

Thaxx Mate

you are amazing !, thank you so much
@Sam How do I measure the size of the gear comb in order to buy the correct ones form Amazon? Thanks！
What’s the name of the “gear”?
Sam..I'm having a difficult time removing the clip to replace it. Are they're different clips, or are they Universal?
Excellent vid. Thank you.
What do you do if none of them are rotating?
where do I pick up those replacement gears?
What if the stick doesn’t rotate?
Wonderful
Hi there can I ask a question ?
Clip still not moving
very important does this system work for any kind of clips i wish if i get your nomber
very helpful
Thank you it work
I rotate mine but it doesn't come right out 😂
Sorry
Nice video. Thanks. What about if the blinds are old, and start falling out with the slightest touch? Can you just replace the holding clips?
Great camera work, we can actually see what you're doing.
Awesome video. Thanks
Do they sell the clips ? I have alot of then broken
Go to home depot..I got mine there
Great clear video. I think the white bracken with the u-shape is broken that holds the gear. Can that be replaced or should I just order new blind
Go to UA-cam and get an idea.
Excelente video!!!
Muy bien explicado!!
Mi ingles es muy malo🤣, pero tu explicacion es excelente!!!
Muchas gracias !!!!
Good job men!!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great video,Thanks!!
WHATS THE THING YOU USE TO PULL AND TURN THE BLINDS CALLED? Obv not a cord but i cant find anything on amazon for "stem" or "stick"
Wish mine did that, my hook or blind holder is not open on one end, meaning you can't just pop it out. Or so far I haven't figured out how it snaps out. You can't get to it from above. Guess I'll keep looking, there's bound to be one like mine I can look at on youtube.
What I do if none move
i couldnt figure it out..
My blinds are made differently because there is no way to pull that other piece out without breaking the slat.
I bought these trash blinds from home depot and within a month they were all broken and out of place and wouldnt twist back properly.
Didnt really help but i guess the video was okay for those who have these types of blinds or whatever.

That was such a good concise video - good camera work! I just fixed mine :)
Nice video and explanation
Where did you get the replacement part?
You can order these online. I get them from a wholesaler.
Sam what is the part called?
Sam please I need the web site !!!.
Just search for vertical blinds comb gear
Hi very informative, thank you. But I have some of them are totally broken I need to replace the whole piece, not just the clip. how I take it out.
I lost the gear - where can I get one?
Thank You very much. The gear fell out of one of my vertical blinds and it’s been driving me nuts not knowing where to put it back in.
These instructions couldn’t have been any simpler.
Loved your video! Where can I find new stems? Mine are actually like yours but I haven't been able to find them. Thanks!

Thank you 😊
Good video. Had to go through a bunch to find one with good audio and camera work showing the gear comb and stem up close and in action. I understand it now. Thanks.
Thank you, what I needed to know, was how to actually remove one of the slats and you showed it!
Awesome...very clearly done (unlike some...) Now I can fix mine (it slipped a notch)
Thank you so much! I fixed mine!
