Amazing Drapery Hardware 10 Qty: 1" Metal Hold Down with Integrated pin for Mini Blinds and Cellular Shades / Home or RV

I saw other beefing about these, but I installed them, and I am pleased with them. You can't use the holes for the ones that came with your mini blind, but all in all they are great. They hold the blind out far enough from the window, since the bottom is actually thinner than the top rail, the ones that come with the blinds suck the blind back towards the window too far and they break so easily. I say get them, they are worth it

I installed blinds on my glass doors, and I like to raise and lower them, but the bottoms have to be hooked when they are down or they swing. The plastic anchors that came with the blinds broke on the second use. These metal ones are perfect! I read some other reviewer saying they were thin metal and flimsy, but I didn’t find that to be the case. They are sturdy and do not bend easily, and they fit the exact holes that the original anchors made. They are perfect!

Easy to install and wired perfectly. I just wish they were a little heavier gauge of metal. Not sure if they will hold up but giving them the benefit of doubt and a four star rating. Will update if needed.

After reading the reviews I was a little hesitant to order but due to challenge in getting the plastic (sure to berak brackets) I gave them a try. Unless you have gorillas living in your RV or house these a great. A world apart from the cheap over priced plastic

Holes in the hardware matched the ones from the old plastic Hold Downs, so no new holes needed to be made in the wall. The metal is thick enough to secure the blinds of my Class A motor home while the vehicle is in motion, but flexible enough to allow you to release the bottom of the blinds when needed. They are by no means flimsy. I am pleased with this purchase.

Very thin sheet metal; but a better option than the plastic versions which break so quickly if stressed after being exposed to time or sunlight. The pin is also small which I suppose allows it to fit most any shade, but also allows for vibration (wiggle) for what I would consider the typical shade hole size.Heavier duty would be nicer, but the sheet metal is what makes this valuable, period.

The plastic holders for my mini-blinds in our RV broke recently. I ordered these from amazon to replace the plastic ones that had broken.The metal on these is very thin, weak and easily bent. I would expect a bit of give so you can get the blinds in/out, but these just plain bent when any pressure was applied.All in all they work fine, but I would not recommend it if you like to take the blinds out of the holder often. Given these are in our RV that we do use frequently, I'll be looking for a stronger product that can take a bit of use.

Some of the metal clips were too thin. I thought they would sturdier.

I was tired of the plastic ones always breaking. These are dimensionally the same but won't break. Great product!

Given their cost these were very disappointing. Bought to replace the broken and rather weak, brittle plastic ones in our house. These metal ones are too flexible easily being bent out of shape, they can sort of be bent back but after a while look all tatty and a bit sad. The steel needs to be thicker with more spring in it.

Easy to install work good

These are so thin they barely hold the blinds.Slightest touch they bend.Junk
