Has anyone know of any repair kits or information on repair please We had the same blind on our van. (Swift) We took the whole blind down from the windscreen I think 4 screws Then was able to re stick it , by laying out on a large table . Did the job fine . None of the strings where broken , jut the tabs had come unstuck. PJay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raywill Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 Unfortunately the tabs are split I repaired it using thick cardboard but they tore apart. I also have done the same repair before. I didn't know if you can buy these tabs Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletguy Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Not much help but i once saw a mh where the owner had fabricated his own pleated blinds and took great pleasure in showing me how well they worked. Cost him pence and few hours of time....but saved him a fortune! B-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about using the cover rings you can buy in a stationers for covering punch holes? . The problem is the sun dries the glue on blinds if like us you spend most of your time in sunny places.It is annoying if you have to pay for new blinds just for a small repair. Just thought would blind shops (Domestic) have some form of repair? Worth a try, if no one knows of a supplier PJay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
