OobaTech #13 - How To Repair Vertical Blinds

In this video, Bobby shows you an easy and cheap way to repair sections of your vertical blinds which have been ripped out of their holders in the track. The only tools which are needed are a fine tip pen or pencil to trace a new hole while using an undamaged section of blind as a guide, and a box cutter or razor to cut the new hole. Good luck!

Who would give this excellent video thumbs down? Excellent instructions that work!

I've done this many times but instead of leaving the ugly end at the bottom I took all down and in stacks of 5 or 6 I shortened all of them to the same length with my miter saw

Worked like a charm, thanks!

Just find a loaf of bread that has the plastic bag tie (not twist tie) Line up the holes/edges and super glue it to the back of the broken blind.

Chictastic thank you 🙏🏼! It was painful to listen to him repeat himself. Maybe he’s a grade school teacher!

I would have drilled a hole on each end of the slit the cut both sides of the slit lase damage to the hole cleaner cut

go to Home Depot or Lowes and go to the paint dept. Grab a couple paint sample cards that match the color of your blind(s). Cut into thin strips width wise to fit the space between the top of the hole and the top of the blind. cut the strip in half and super glue on both sides of the blind, then file any excess down flush to the top of the blind. super cheap and you can't even see the repair unless you're up close looking for it.

That is so creative. No thickness issue sliding into that slot to mount?

[@badabing9143]

So is he saying he's putting a new hole where? On the other end, meaning the bottom... the end by floor??

Yes
