Keeping your child or pet safe is one of our top priorities. When child proofing your home blinds or window treatments may not even something you think about, we worry about sharp corners and locks on cabinet doors. But blinds that are not child safe can be a hazard. With that being said a few simple fixes can prevent any future accident.
When placing furniture especially in children rooms or play rooms be sure to keep in mind your window coverings. It is best to keep windows clear of any furniture that your child could climb on and grab hold of cords or the window covering itself.
Any cords including inner cords should be out of reach.Tassel pulls should be adjusted and made as short as possible. Be sure to secure all cords with proper safety secures either to a wall or on the floor.
Also never mount window coverings that have back cords in reach of children.
The only way to make sure your window treatments are totally kid friendly is to go 100% cordless. We offer countless cordless window treatments including cellular shades and cordless roller shades. Both are available in black out which is perfect for a nursery. Verticals are another great option, just be sure the cord is out of reach or secured properly to the floor.
