How To Fix A Zipper That Won’t Close

Zippers. When they work we never think about them. But when they get stuck? That’s entirely different. Trying to fix a “sticky zipper” can be a serious  pain. Luckily, UCAN Zippers USA shares this handy little hack to help.

For this to work, you need a pair of pliers and have to make sure that the teeth are lined up correctly, then crimp the slider body. The main problem for zippers is that the mouth doesn’t engage the teeth, so all you’ll need to do is take your pliers, and squeeze, not too hard, on both sides of the mouth. And that should do the trick!

I’m definitely going to remember this tip. Please share this life hack with your friends!
