Fix my stuck/detached window roller shutter

$100

Preston VIC, Australia

16th Jul 2024

We have some fairly old window roller shutters that have become detached during the process of resolving a tangled cable in the winding mechanism after the window was wound too much. The tangled cable has now been fixed and the winding mechanism is new, but I can't reconnect the shutters to the roller easily, and one slat of the shutters has detached. I'm not sure if something is bent so it no longer connects properly, or if it requires someone with more experience to put it back together. I just want to be able to wind the shutters up and down again.

Great work and recommended.
