Thanks to all the members for the great information on restringing the Dat Night Shades. all went well there are a few gromets that are used for the mounting holes that are colapsed and I need to replace them also (2) needed, they didnt come with the rebuild kit so I guess a call to the Fix my blinds store will be my next job.
I do have another question and that is after I have restrung the shade which now completed how do you figure out how long to make the line that conects to the string knob that is mounted to the wall.
Is it all by feel and a slow adjustment for the tention?
