Changing Vertical Blinds From Side Opening To Split Opening

The task of changing the opening and closing direction of the vanes does not require expensive tools or accessing the internal components of the vertical blind.

Changing vertical blinds from side opening to split opening.

Stack positions are oriented looking at them from the inside where the vertical blind is mounted. Split stack vertical blinds vertical blinds opening from the center are known as split stack vertical blinds or center open vertical blinds. But need to be able to change the operating mechanism somehow in order for the blinds to have a side draw. The split stack position sometimes referred to as center open draws the vanes to the center.

Step 1 pull the blind cord to open the slats on the blinds completely. Finish by reattaching the vanes. They open to each side and leave a stack of vertical blinds on either side of the window or door. If you have a hinged door then you need to opt for split stacking vertical blinds.

Gently push up on the outside edge of the valance if installed until the valance clip clicks free of the vertical blind header. You can get your vertical blinds customized to open at the center instead of on the sides. The control position of your levolor vertical blind can be changed if it is not a split draw with autowand. Would like the blinds to be able to stack on that side also.

If you have a side opening or stacking vertical blind and you want to change the direction of its operation to the center the headrail must be changed. You can dismount the vertical blinds and turn them around so you can mount them the other way. The left stack position has the vane slats stacking on the left. I have two vertical blinds each with a centre draw split.

Side stack vertical blinds other vertical blinds open from either side and get stacked on one side of the door completely. I want to use both of them on a large window. Each blind has both a draw chord and a chain that opens and closes the slats on the same side. To change the control from one side to the other first remove all vanes if already attached.
