To realign your vertical blinds, pull the chain (or twist the wand) to turn the louvers to the closed position. Since one or more louvers are out of alignment, they may stick out or appear reversed. No worries; that’s what we’re here to fix.
2. Keep pulling on the chain or twisting the wand until it stops moving.
3. When you feel the chain stop moving, give it a firm, steady tug. (If using a wand, no need to tug on it; just keep twisting.) You’ll hear a loud, grinding noise, as if you’re stripping the gears, but don’t worry; this is perfectly normal.
4. Now pull the chain or twist the wand to turn the louvers in the opposite direction until they stop and you hear that teeth-gritting grind again.
5. The misaligned vane(s) should now turn properly and pop back in place with the others.
6. Pull the chain or twist the wand to open and close your verticals as you would normally do to make sure all is in working order.
