Hello,
HOW TO SHORTEN YOUR BLIND
Step 1
Lower the blind and rotate the slats to open position (no angle).
Step 2
Remove the bottom rail button.
Step 3
According to the length you want to shorten, decide how many slats
need to be removed.
Step 4
Before removing the slats, cut through the little loop ear affixed to the
slat you would like to remove.
Please Note: DO NOT CUT THE PULL CORD
Step 5
Cut off the excess ladders from two ladder rungs below the very last
slat. Next, cut off the ladder rungs of the remaining ladders.
Step 6
Tuck the ends of the excess ladder into the button holes of the bottom rail. Next, insert the buttons back into the bottom rail, securing the ladder cord in place.
Step 7
Fully lift the blind, and then fully lower it. Open the safety cord consolidator and cut the excess lift cords to proper length. NOTE: Always ensure the safety cord consolidator is within 3â (76.2mm) from headrail when blind is fully lowered. Retie knots of the lift cords and put them into the slot of the safety cord consolidator, then snap the opposing side into place.
Thank you for choosing Sears.
