We have a blue top quad in Benimar and have some broken slats on one
of our window shutters. Does anyone know where I can purchase replacements ?
Thanks
Allan

Any good ferreteria will sell individual ones for you to replace, I'm not sure of the name but I believe one that's mentioned is along the crevilente road Lo Maribu??

Hi Alan

Its normally the top one that breaks ..so replace it with a metal Aluminuim one..

Buy them most DIY places

Good luck

I find that it’s often the part where the ‘puller’ attaches to the top slat that breaks. I like the idea of using an aluminium top slat. I tend to fit more ‘pullers’ to the top slat to spread the load and it seems to make the mechanism ripen better when you do this.

Hi good info. On the small windows blind once rolled up fully on either end is a strap - one side has come partially away abecwe don’t see how to clip it back into place.

The strap/pulley on the patio door is slack, think I need to buy a new strap.

Cheers
