How to Repair Broken Roller Blinds
Are you having trouble with your shades? After you realized that using curtains are less ideal and decided to move on to using the alternative, you suddenly find certain defects that hinder you from experiencing the advantages of using this type of covering for windows. So how are you supposed to fix this problem, especially if the blinds would not roll or unroll according to your desired length? There is little need to worry, fortunately, as correcting this predicament is as easy as pie. The good thing is that you do not any special tools that you need to buy in hardware stores.
The first thing that you need to do is to take out the roller blinds from their rods. You need to do it carefully, unless you want to detach the rod from the wall or allow the fabric to tear in half. After taking it out from its bracket, you need to examine the ratchet or the spring. If you do no know what the ratchet or the spring is, it is the device at the left portion of the blinds that enable you to raise or lower the shades. Look for the one with the square pin, not the one with the circular shape.
Check if there are any accretions of certain dusts or even small insects inside the ratchet. Most likely there is something clogging the interior of the mechanism, giving you a difficult time to raise or lower the blinds. Since the available space is tiny and would not be reached by a brush, all you have to do is take a pin and start scraping the edges until the accumulations are either smaller in number or have entirely disappeared. After using the pin, it is now time to use a brush—an ideal type to use here is a small paintbrush, as the tip is finer and would fit nicely inside the ratchet. Dip the brush in kerosene, an ideal cleaning agent for this type of scenario and begin to clean the insides in order to make it shinier. A word of caution, though: Do not apply the oil directly inside the ratchet. You need to decrease the amount of oil you will put in the ratchet or else when the interior would recollect its dust in the future, the result would be disastrous; your ratchet’s interior part would turn gooey, making the raising and the lowering of blinds harder than when it is not sticky.
Most likely the problem of jammed roller blinds is caused by obvious obstacles, so you need to be sharp in spotting dust and other accumulations in the racket. Still, if you have managed to clean everything up until its very edges and it still refuses to work, then it is time to replace the spring or the ratchet itself. There are times when even the most meticulous of cleaning is not enough to make certain objects work. In this case, you need to get a hold of a specialist to fix the blinds.
