This is near and dear to my own lived experience, having dealt with what should have been a minor fix for Hunter Douglas blinds.
The cord that was attached to the clutch broke and got caught in the mechanism itself. When I disassembled the clutch to retrieve the cord, an internal spring came dislodged and twisted causing the clutch to never function correctly again.
Understanding exactly which part I needed replaced, I contacted Hunter Douglas, who told me to talk to a local rep. My local rep told me they couldn't repair this issue, and I would need to box up my entire window shade and sent it in. The cost was something around $200 for a repair.
I spent a lot of time scouring the internet and came across this site where I purchased the entire clutch for around $30. 5 minutes of swapping a good part for bad and I was back in action.
- thechao 3y agoAt least near me, HD repair is usually based on the area of the blinds; I have this unholy-huge 6.5' x 6' blind that the local HD shop wants $1000 to fix ... what I think is the clutch? (Just going off the troubleshooting section.) If I can fix it, myself, for $30, I'll be pretty stoked.
