Removing blinds for painting or cleaning should be an easy task but with so many designs it can be a little harder than expected. I will show you a quick demonstration of removing a Levolor Mark 1 blind which is easy once you see the little trick on the brackets.

I spent THREE YEARS watching many videos to find which one would work with the blinds I had when I bought my current house and none of them worked, and I already gave up. Somehow today I came through this video and thought "hey, these blinds looks exactly like the ones I had" and I removed them in 15 seconds! THANK YOU! Now I can buy something modern

Thank goodness for KZfaq and you! I've been puzzling over how to remove these blinds for 15 minutes. 😂 Update: I still had trouble and waited for my husband to get home. I told him what I had found and he didn't believe me. Took the first down by unscrewing everything. Convinced him to try it this way and he said, "why didn't you tell me that before?" 😂

So Dr Levolor!!! That was incredible and you have no idea how long we have tried to figure these babies out! They are great braces but the engineering on them is not “user friendly.” It wasn’t until we were washing them (for the first time in nearly 10 years, that my wife noticed an iconic instruction...and the type of the blind Mark I that we were able to find you video. You have no idea how overjoyed we were to get this off of the track. We had 4 of them on one longer window treatment. So we had to press HARD backward ...in tandem...my wife on 2 and me on 2. But we had to do them TOGETHER! Those little springs were crafted by elves (I am sure). Well, all of that just to say thank you for the demonstration. Within minutes the blinds were down and on their way to the shower to get washed! LOL ...really

Hahaha, that is too funny as they are tricky. Most people probably believe there is some type of magic holding the blinds up since you nothing which stands out as where to push or pull to get the darn things off. Enjoy the dust free blinds and thanks for the comment. 👍

I have the old levolors that have the little "teeth" ... and that was an easy rotate and snap. I can't wait to get the new $220. Mark 1 that's 69" across and 58" long, and attempt to "just simply" push in the spring. :-) I guess I'll be changing out the brackets too.

This is so funny to me how simple u made this look while also showing it's tricky and therefore realistic for a second but still took under like a minute and that's impressive. The one I have I got the first one off easily enough and couldn't for the life of me get the other side and just kind of had enough so I shook it back and forth and it slid out 😂 I was like oh what the hell that's how u do that?? So now I get to try this method (this vid) with the older ones 🤞🤞

I had four brackets for my blinds, but one of them engaged wrong during installation. The instructions also had me install the brackets right up against the back of the window, giving much less leeway. Getting it sorted without three friends to press on all the brackets at once was a nightmare. Eventually got it in but I'm not sure if the blinds are ever coming out without also tearing the wall down haha.

I have old Kirsch venetian blinds that are now failing. I'm going to guess that they are mounted in the same way as are the Levolors. I emailed Kirsch from their website and they referred me to Levolor customer service which was a dead end. I'll try this method when it is earlier in the day so if it does not work and I break something, I'll have time to go to the hardware store and hopefully fix things.
