How to Replace a Broken Routless Slat in a Horizontal Blind

[@iikhalaii8784]

today years old and it was always this simple.

[@avimango46]

Thanks 🙏 I never thought it was so simple 😂

[@rachelitobandito]

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: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnWxq4d8jcSZbck&ab_channel=FixMyBlinds. Once you have the strings out from the slats, you can easily remove slats/replace slats as needed before restringing it.

Hardly need to be told how to replace a slat on a blind like that! Those are obvious and easy, they should make them all like that!

[@RickyReyesJ3sus]

[@Shieva]

[@Shieva]

FixMyBlinds i don’t have these, i can’t just slide them out. I have the smaller ones with knots.. but even then i can’t do it because it has plastic in it so I’m stuck can’t fix them have to buy new blinds lol 😆 😪

[@fixmyblinds]

@@Shieva If you'd like to take a picture of your blinds and send it to us, we can give you some directions. Our email is [e-mail].

[@Shieva]

FixMyBlinds thank you i just sent the photos!

[@shahidaarif9714]

Great video thanks

[@4godandcountry663]

How about the fact that he didn’t put the slat back through the original area where the first one came out from

[@50sClassic4k]

Thanks i threw my phone at my blinds and i got worried when it broke

[@sublimetime6092]

Great video! Thanks!

[@DelegadaGamer]

Wait, where I can find the replacement piece?

[@fixmyblinds]

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/

Wait a minute Is it that easy! Let me give it a try

[@sparky9327]

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

[@fixmyblinds]

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.

[@ryzezee8543]

oh okay, thank you, because what you mentioned happened to me; guess will need to buy a new one @@fixmyblinds

[@fixmyblinds]

I'm so sorry that happened! Working with cordless blinds is tricky for sure.

[@Lholz58]

Link to other video doesn’t seem to work?

[@fixmyblinds]

What other video are you trying to get to?

[@emilyemge2162]

it's really that easy? geez I should have looked this up first before I spent like an hour basically yanking it out lol.

[@rupman27isback]

Doesnt work on all blinds

[@teresatuttle7393]

There is no link to fix the other style blind

[@fixmyblinds]

Hi Teresa, what other type of blind are you trying to repair?

[@Marenization]

@@fixmyblinds one that has the string going through the blind, i think - that's the link I'm looking for, too :)

[@kelite8974]

What if the one at the very top pops loose?

[@fixmyblinds]

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

[@kelite8974]

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

[@fixmyblinds]

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

[@kelite8974]

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]

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!

[@RudyMoreno8326]

They completely didn't include removing the string running between all of them, vertical.... Then having to run it through all of them again.

[@fixmyblinds]

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: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqGYqqyHj6-GbJY

[@OptimusSatanas]

@@fixmyblinds Thanks. Seems everyone is more interested in being ungrateful.

[@rdg3686]

[@fixmyblinds]

Hi there! What additional questions do you have? I'm happy to help!

[@erikgrullon4305]
