    One of my roller blinds has completly come off the roller. Is it a question of just glueing it on the roller or do I need to do something else? Is there something I need to do with the spring etc? Any help apprecaited.

    I have one here that used to pop out every now and again, don't know what you mean about the roller? on mine the roller is part of the blind, it sits into a receiver fixed onto the wall. Unless the rollers broken or cracked it should slot back into the receiver. No glue needed on the ones here. Might help in some way.

    Thanks for the info. The ones I have are glued onto the roller, must be cheap one's!

    I think the previous poster misunderstood your complaint, the blind is usually attached to the steel barrel with a double sided tape or glued, this is not a defect or cheap way or doing the job. Just get some double sided tape and re-do. The original glue can dry up and fail over time, especially if the blind is pulled too far.

    I understand it now, the blinds here are long enough not to be pulled off the roller. Guess that should only happen if kids etc roll it down too much. Only problem I had on one here was it popped out of the receiver.
