Changing Vertical Blinds From Side Opening To Split Opening

Split stack vertical blinds vertical blinds opening from the center are known as split stack vertical blinds or center open vertical blinds.

Changing vertical blinds from side opening to split opening.

Step 1 pull the blind cord to open the slats on the blinds completely. Each blind has both a draw chord and a chain that opens and closes the slats on the same side. But need to be able to change the operating mechanism somehow in order for the blinds to have a side draw. The left stack position has the vane slats stacking on the left.

The control position of your levolor vertical blind can be changed if it is not a split draw with autowand. To change the control from one side to the other first remove all vanes if already attached. Side stack vertical blinds other vertical blinds open from either side and get stacked on one side of the door completely. I have two vertical blinds each with a centre draw split.

I want to use both of them on a large window. They will draw to the right where the vanes can be tilted closed. Would like the blinds to be able to stack on that side also. Finish by reattaching the vanes.

Next remove the headrail and turn it around so the controls are on the opposite side. They open to each side and leave a stack of vertical blinds on either side of the window or door. Stack positions are oriented looking at them from the inside where the vertical blind is mounted. This will allow the blinds to open on the right side if needed.

The task of changing the opening and closing direction of the vanes does not require expensive tools or accessing the internal components of the vertical blind. Gently push up on the outside edge of the valance if installed until the valance clip clicks free of the vertical blind header. If you have a hinged door then you need to opt for split stacking vertical blinds. You can get your vertical blinds customized to open at the center instead of on the sides.
