How to fix a zipper that has fallen off?

There are zippers on many items, such as zippers on clothes, zippers on pants, zippers on bags, zippers on quilt covers, etc. These zippers are very common. In the future, when you buy these items, you must pay attention to the quality of the zippers and try to buy zippers of better quality to avoid frequent problems. During the use of the zipper, if one side of the zipper falls off, you must learn the following repair methods.

How to fix a zipper that has fallen off?

First, use pliers to pull off the top big tooth of the zipper, and pull both sides.

Then pull the zipper lock to the top and merge the teeth on both sides together.

Then put the zipper lock in (it is somewhat difficult because the diameter of the metal zipper is relatively thick. If it really cannot be put in, cut a small hole in the diameter. Remember, do not cut where the big teeth are installed, but cut near the top, otherwise the big teeth cannot be installed)

After the zipper lock is put in, install the big teeth and everything will be OK

If the chain is not opened and closed smoothly, if you pull the chain head hard, it will cause tooth engagement failure. At this time, apply paraffin or lubricating spray [Zipper Partner] to the surface and inside of the teeth, then move the slider several times and it will slide easily.

If you really don't know how to do it:

When opening and closing the zipper, sometimes the chain head bites the thread segment or fabric and the slider cannot be pulled. If you forcefully pull the slider, the bite will get deeper. You should push the slider back while untying the fabric. When it is fully bitten in, do not pull the slider with force, but slowly pull it back. Also, do not leave any hidden dangers when sewing the zipper.

The zipper pops open after being zipped

This problem is caused by the slider being pulled for too long and its diameter becoming larger. If you want to solve it temporarily, just use pliers to clamp the tail of the slider. Note that it is the tail, but be careful not to use too much force or clamp it off-center. If you want to solve it completely, you have to replace the slider. Most shoe repair shops will replace the zipper for just one or two dollars.

Pull the zipper back and forth. Slowly pull the zipper back and forth over the lubricated zipper.

If there is even the slightest resistance, stop and add more pencil tip, then continue pulling until it stretches from one end to the other.

Don't go too fast, as this may cause other problems.

If it is stuck in the fabric, you will need to slowly "wiggle" the zipper to gently pull it out.
