French Door Blinds - Wood Blinds - Window Blinds - Tilt Mechanism


Q:
I ordered your blinds for the whole house a few years ago and quite happy with your products. However, the tilter for my french doors are not working. Seems something is broken inside. There are three french doors with the same problem. How do I get replacement parts?
A:
Tilt mechanism and tilt rod.
Because your window blinds are mounted to a french door that moves it is quite possible that over time the tilt rod has slid out of the tilter mechanism inside the headrail. This can easily be fixed by simply looking inside the headrail, you might need to remove the blinds, and locating the tilt rod. Ensure that the metal tilt rod is still in the tilt mechanism as shown. If the rod has slid out of place it can simply be inserted back into the mechanism and the blind is fixed. Without the rod inserted into the mechanism, when the tilt mechanism is turned the tilt rod will not turn.

French door blinds can be just about any window blinds ranging from wood blinds, mini blinds, and faux wood blinds. Simply choose your blind as an outside mount blind. The window blinds can be attached to the door above the window. Make sure you order hold downs to secure the bottom of the blinds in place so it does not move when the door is opened and closed.
