Are your blinds not retracting like they are supposed to? If your blinds will extend when pulled down but not retract when pushed upward, the string that runs through the blinds has likely fallen off of the pulley within the top housing. Do not worry though, as there is way to solve this. This guide will help you fix this pesky annoyance.

    • Pull the shaft partially out of the housing.

    • The shaft is not supposed to come out of the housing all of the way. This step is meant to bend the shaft just enough so that the tweezers can reach behind it.

    • While holding the slack with your middle finger, and the shaft with your index finger, use the tweezers to grab on to the string from the top side of the housing.

    • Pull the string up and toward you as you remove your middle finger from the loop.

    • Test the blinds to see if they are working. If they aren't, check to see if the string has been realigned on the pulley and repeat the steps as necessary.

Cordless. This is not a cordless shade. Try again.

These aren't instructions for CORDLESS but I wasn't able to find any. I was able to repair the broken cord of my cordless blind; it took a couple hours but it's as good as new. Surprisingly, the tension cord for both sides is actually one continual cord. You'd want to replace both sides if yours is different. Nylon Cord 1.4mm worked for me. It does help if you have another blind to use as a guide on how to thread the pulleys especially if both sides break (which happened to me). Maybe I'll make a video on my next broken cord. Hint: When you measure the length of the cord, add extra feet before you cut the new cord.
