  • FAQs

    • Can the direction the tilt chain faces be changed on my vertical blind?
      • No, the tilt chain will only face one way. If the headrail is attached the wrong way, the tilt chain will face away from the room. To change headrail and tilt chain direction, first remove all vanes. Next, remove headrail and turn so controls are on the opposite side. Finish by reattaching vanes.

    • How many brackets should I have received with my vertical blind?
      • The width of your vertical blind will determine how many brackets and clips you receive. Please reference the chart below to determine the correct number of brackets and clips needed for your size blind.

        Width # of Brackets # of Clips
        Up to 66" 3 3
        66 1/8" to 96" 4 4
        96 1/8" to 126" 5 5
        126 1/8" to 156" 6 6
        156 1/8" to 186" 7 7
        186 1/8" and above 8 8
    • Can I get my vertical blind restrung?
      • We do not restring vertical headrails. If under warranty, a replacement headrail can be provided. Please contact customer service for further assistance.

    • Can I mount my vertical blind using side mounting brackets?
      • No. Vertical blinds can be mounted with either an inside or an outside mount.

    • If a vane is out of alignment how do you adjust?
      • Begin by positioning the mis-aligned vane(s) in the fully open position. Next, remove the misaligned vane from its clip, by gently pressing upwards and outwards until the vane releases from the clip. With a pair of pliers, grab the clip that previously held the vane and push it gently upwards until it snaps back into the headrail. Spin the wand until all vanes are in the fully opened position. Once that has occurred, grab your pliers and gently pull down on the clip so that the missing vane can be reattached to its clip.

    • What’s the best way to clean my vertical blinds?
      • Visit our cleaning and care page.
