Not sure?
If your blind has a continuous bead chain — it'll work.
Three gear sizes are included with both MC08 and MC11 to fit virtually every common bead and chain diameter. If your blind is wand-operated or has a fixed-length cord (not a loop), the opener won't fit — message us a photo and we'll confirm.
