How To Remove & Install Vinyl Blinds. DIY Blind installation and Removal Tips.

What happens here

Begin by fully raising the window blind to the top. Locate the decorative valance (faceplate) that covers the headrail. This valance is typically held by small clips. Gently apply pressure with your finger or a flat tool, such as a 5-in-1 tool or flathead screwdriver, on the bottom edge of the valance, pushing it towards the window, to release the clips. Carefully pull the valance away from the window frame. Exercise caution as older plastic clips can be brittle due to sun exposure and may break easily. If you do break them, replacement clips are available at hardware stores.

Goal: Safely detach the decorative valance from the blind headrail.

What they say

Hide

removing this blind. We're going to raise the blind all the way up. And then this blind has a face on it right here, these little clips. And if you put just a little bit of pressure this on these things, be very careful cuz they get really brittle from being up here in the sun a lot. So, they'll break easily. If you do break them, they sell replacement brace clips at Home Depot, but you just put a little little pressure on it and your finger and just push towards the window and these little things will pop off and this exposes the face of the blind right here.
