Thank you! Staying at a relative’s house, she’s asleep, I thought I was going to have to sleep with the blinds all the way up! I had to use a lot more force than I expected. You saved me! LOL

What works every time for me: Turn the adjuster until the slats are fully open so you can see through the window. They then go up and down every time.

By 180, you mean horizontal slats, right? I’m gonna try that and see if it helps. Thanks!

@RKCorinth 3 ай бұрын

Correct. If horizontal slats, open them so that you can see right through them. They should go up and down with no issues.

We just moved into a new house. There are a few sets of cordless blinds of unknown age (look newer though). I just tried raising them with the slats closed. They didn’t retract easily, but “pooled” in my hand. Then I opened the slats as you suggested and they went up easily. Thanks!!

I cannot get the blinds to get lowered. When the painter was here, the blind was removed. Now it’s a good 12” from the bottom. I’ve watched the video but it’s not working. Any help is appreciated.

Try adjusting the blinds using the stick. Set them horizontally so you can see out and try pulling them down. Sometimes the mechanism catches.

The cord you used to use to raise or lower the blinds is no longer needed (because the newer style is cord-less).

I wonder if WD40 lubricant applied to the gears would help cordless blinds move easier. I think older blinds and larger blinds are more difficult to move.

Mine are lose won’t go up anymore what can i do?

@fixthishouse3303 5 ай бұрын

I have some that are “stuck” or slow to move. I pull down on the tension cord and inch and lift/hold the blinds up. Think of it like trying to loosen a stiff joint. Come back a hour or 2 later and do it again. I may make a video on this process.

@fixthishouse3303 5 ай бұрын

I was trying to loosen an older blind last night by pulling the tension strings down an inch or 2 and releasing them. It didn’t work… UNTIL I adjusted the stick that controls the angle of the blinds. Try turning the stick in case something is impeding the tension mechanism. Let me know if it works :)

This is a long shot… you could try pulling the middle tension cords out without pulling the blinds. There may be more than one. I saw a KZbinr pull the tension cords equally to even out uneven blinds. I think the mechanism gets stuck from lack of use .
