I used to work in a shop making shades 20+ years ago. Cord locks were never this easy to thread or use. I don't recall the threading technique from long ago but I remember those never working as well as these! Video was very helpful. Thanks for helping me get back into making my own shades!

The shade cord lock works great! What an improvement over the old cleat. Your instructions for installation were perfect! Thanks, I will order from your site in the future. Denise Snead

Cord Locks Worked Extremely Well!

<DIV>I received my <A href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Shade-Lift-Cord-s/18.htm">cord</A> and <A style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Cord-Lock-p/cl00.htm">cord locks</A> for my new sheer balloon shades and both worked extremely well. Especially the <A style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Cord-Lock-p/cl00.htm">cord locks</A> with its compartments divided by wires. It was very easy to thread with your <A style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Shade-Lift-Cord-s/18.htm">.9 mm shade cord</A>, even though I worked from the bottom of the balloon shade to the top, in order to tuck up the last two rows in a billow by tying knots on the lower two loops of your <A href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Translucent-Roman-Shade-Tape-p/tt10.htm">transparent roman shade tape</A>. I just threaded the cord as your online instructions indicated, and I was in business. The shades now raise and lower smoothly and stay where I put them. A winning combination!! I had tried a different combination of cord and <A style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Cord-Lock-p/cl00.htm">cord locks</A>, but the cords were thicker and were not evenly held by the cord lock, resulting in difficulty raising and lowering the shade and ending up with an uneven look. </DIV> <DIV>Congratulations on three useful products that work even better than I could have imagined: <A href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Translucent-Roman-Shade-Tape-p/tt10.htm">transparent roman shade tape</A>, <A style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Shade-Lift-Cord-s/18.htm">.9 mm shade cord</A>, and your <A style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" href="http://www.draperysewingsupplies.com/Cord-Lock-p/cl00.htm">cord locks</A>. </DIV> <DIV>~ Nancy </DIV>
