ABSTRACT:
A window blind assembly having a storage rail assembly that includes a storage rail defining a channel for receiving and storing unnecessary or unused slats of the blind assembly to enable the ready customization of the blind assembly to fit windows of different heights. The storage rail assembly also includes a pair of end caps removably engageable with the ends of the storage rail for retaining the slats within the channel. Each end cap includes a breakaway member and an end piece removably joined together by a coupling portion desirably in the form of an area of reduced thickness of the end cap so that the breakaway member can be separated from the end piece and positioned to prevent buckling of the slats within the blind.
