No problem, you can do it yourself.

How to change a roller blind chain
1:24

A

Remove your brackets
If you have a pelmet, take it down before you start.

At the top of your blind, on the pin end side, rotate the clear plastic cog anti-clockwise. This will retract the pin away from the bracket, just enough for you to remove that side of the blind completely. Then take the opposite side of the blind out of the bracket.

Now you can use your cordless drill with the Phillips head drill bit to remove the screws, using the drill's reverse function. Then take down your brackets.
B

Swap the end caps
Lay your blind on a clean floor and pull out each end cap.

Swap them over, then insert them back into your blind. Remember the chain drive end needs to go on the side where you want your chain.
C

Put your brackets and blind back up
Then simply repeat from step 3 onwards of this guide to put your blind back up.

How to fix a blind chain ? We've got an easy fix for that.

A

Remove your roller blind
At the top of your blind, on the pin end side, rotate the clear plastic cog anti-clockwise. This will retract the pin away from the bracket, just enough for you to remove that side of the blind completely. Then take the opposite side of the blind out of the bracket.
B

Adjust the hood position and click your blind back in
Check that the hood over the chain is at 12 o'clock and the ACMEDA logo is at 6 o'clock.

Gently slot the chain end back into the chain drive bracket.

Then slot the pin end into the pin end bracket, until you hear a click.
C

Check the fit
Check that your blind rolls up and down easily and smoothly, and you're done!

All you need is masking tape to fix this one.

A

Unroll your blind all the way down, until you see the bare aluminium tube.
B

Cut a 5 cm strip of masking tape and stick it onto the aluminium tube, on the side you need the blind to go to. Roll your blind back up to check if it tracks straight.
C

Add a couple more layers of masking tape for thickness, until the blind rolls up straight.
