How to Install a Zipper Slider & Top Stop on a Metal Zipper Chain

[@jhart3983]

Finally!!! I have been searching. Everyone wants to show how to put a zipper head on bulk zippers but not how to create the top stop. Considering it's zipper by bulk, I figured it would be a given. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!

Two hours and 13 videos later, I found yours and am so thankful that I kept searching. I was really to the point of scrapping making my bench cushions! Your explanations made perfect sense! Thank you!!

[@marianglisson483]

Thank you! I just followed your instructions to repair a zipper on a sofa cushion and it worked like a charm!

[@lawannarobinson9900]

What great tips and useful to know what tools are needed and how to use the tools. If only I knew this a few years back on how to make repairs to zippers that were on heavy coats. Never too late to learn something new. Thanks for sharing.

great video thank you very much very hopeful I've learned something thank you

Thx I guess from your video that you cannot reverse the slider and stop I sewed a zip in, but when comes to zipping you have to zip on the inside and on the outside as intend

[@familymoseley1393]

GREAT JOB! Wonderful at explaining and love your voice and rhythm. You definitely should teach on a professional scale. Enjoyed very much!

For metal zipper chains, is there a layer that is considered the correct top layer and bottom layer, or is it enough just to pay attention to which direction the point/arrow is facing?

[@apples4rio]

My guess would be because he talked about it twice it's more important to look out for that little arrow

[@windriver2363]

I never noticed that metal zipper sliders only worked in one direction. I suppose this means that you can't have a two way, double slider metal zipper?

Are zipper slides essentially universal? My local fabric store had brass zipper by the yard (which is what I wanted) but only zipper slides that say they're for nylon zipper chains. I can't get the teeth to latch on to one another and wonder if it's a problem with the slides.

[@SailriteDIY]

No, Sliders are not universal, but sometimes a slider will work with a different brand zipper chain In your case it sounds like your type of zipper chain is different which will never work.

[@jennifercreek34]

@@SailriteDIY Thank you! I ignored the assurance of my fabric store employee, who said the slide should work, and instead I bought the exact slide recommended for brass zippers in my brand. Your advice was spot-on.

[@Thedistressedpainter]

Thank you going to order stops and pulls. Thx

[@barbmartin4176]

I needeed help with a sweatshirt jacket, where the slider came off. Showing on a "loose" zipper did not help.

[@marieelhaouzi4868]

Good job

[@SailriteDIY]

[@longboredterrie]

[@Kushmosha]
