What to do if HunterDouglas Window Blinds UltraGlide® are hard to raise or lower?
If your HunterDouglas UltraGlide® blinds are hard to raise or lower, make sure you're pulling the wand or cord straight down and close to the blind. Also, check that the bottom rail isn't obstructed or held in place by hold-down brackets.
What to do if my HunterDouglas Window Blind does not stay in place as the wand or cord retracts during raising?
If your UltraGlide HunterDouglas Window Blind does not stay in place as the wand or cord retracts during raising, the lowering mechanism has likely been engaged. Make sure you pull down on the pull wand or cord to raise the blind, instead of pulling out or across it.
What to do if my HunterDouglas SimpleLift™ Window Blinds slats are not stacking evenly?
If the slats of your SimpleLift™ HunterDouglas Window Blinds are not stacking evenly and are falling over the bottom rail, it means that the blind was raised too quickly. Gently raise the bottom rail to give the lift cords time to retract, and the slats should then stack evenly on the bottom rail.
What to do if my HunterDouglas Window Blind does not tilt?
If your HunterDouglas Window Blind does not tilt, check that the tilt cords are not tangled or knotted. Also, verify that the cords haven't become disengaged from the tape rolls and that the tilt rod in the headrail is fully inserted into the tilt gear.
What to do if my UltraGlide HunterDouglas Window Blind lowering mechanism engages but the blind does not lower?
If the lowering mechanism of your UltraGlide HunterDouglas Window Blind engages and “clicks” but the blind does not lower, the UltraGlide mechanism might be caught between the raising and lowering functions. Simply pull the wand or cord vertically to slightly raise and reset the blind. Then, lower as usual.
How to fix uneven raising or lowering of my HunterDouglas Window Blind?
To fix your HunterDouglas Window Blind that does not raise or lower evenly, check inside the headrail to ensure no obstructions are preventing the mechanism from turning. Also, check that the lift cords are not pinched or tangled.
What to do if my HunterDouglas Window Blind lift cords are stuck or jammed?
If the lift cords of your HunterDouglas Window Blind are stuck or jammed, check the cords and the moveable pin in the cordlock mechanism inside the headrail of the blind. Ensure the cords can move freely. If they are jammed, use a screwdriver or needle-nose pliers to move the pin and free the cords.
Why is my UltraGlide HunterDouglas Window Blind not lowering when I pull the cord?
If your UltraGlide HunterDouglas Window Blind will not lower when the wand or cord is pulled toward the center of the blind, the pull wand or cord must be in the fully retracted position to engage the lowering mechanism. Ensure the wand or cord is being pulled from the fully retracted position directly toward the center of the blind, and not down then over.
What to do if my HunterDouglas SimpleLift™ Window Blind makes a ratcheting noise?
If your SimpleLift™ HunterDouglas Window Blind makes a ratcheting noise while the center button is pushed in and the bottom rail is being raised, push harder on the center button. The button must be fully depressed to raise or lower the blind.
