To make window blinds go all the way down, the method depends on the type of blind you have: cordless, corded, or motorized.
Making your blinds go all the way down is a simple process once you know the mechanism for your specific blind type. The most common types rely on either pulling the bottom of the blind, using a cord, or operating a remote control.
Here's a breakdown of how to lower different types of window blinds, based on standard operating procedures:
Methods for Lowering Blinds
The exact steps vary depending on whether your blinds are manual (cordless or corded) or automated (motorized).
- Cordless Blinds: If you have a cordless blind, simply pull the bottom of the blind down until it reaches the desired height. For them to go all the way down, you would continue pulling the bottom rail downwards until the blind is fully extended.
- Corded Blinds: If you have a corded blind, use the cord to lower the blind until it reaches the desired height. To lower them fully, you typically pull the lift cord downwards and slightly towards the side to release the locking mechanism, then let the blind descend smoothly until it reaches the bottom.
- Motorized Blinds: Finally, if you have a motorized blind, use the remote control to lower the blind to the desired height. To make them go all the way down, you would press and hold (or press the designated 'down' button) on the remote until the blind is fully extended.
Quick Reference Table
Here's a simple summary of how to lower each type of blind:
Blind Type | Method to Lower | Action for "All the Way Down" |
---|---|---|
Cordless | Pull the bottom of the blind down | Pull the bottom rail down until fully extended. |
Corded | Use the cord to lower the blind | Release the locking mechanism with the cord and let it descend. |
Motorized | Use the remote control | Press/hold the 'down' button until fully extended. |
Understanding your specific blind type is key to operating it correctly and making it go all the way down.
