Window Coverings & Child Safety

Window Coverings & Child Safety

We have had several customers in the past few weeks ask about the December, 2009 recall by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission in regards to blinds and child safety.

The “recall to repair” covers traditional roman shades and roll-up blinds, i.e., roman shades that have exposed cords running down the back of the shade and roller/roll-up blinds with a lifting loop that is placed around the fabric at the bottom of the shade which can slide off and become a free standing loop.

Both Hunter Douglas and One Stop Decorating support these efforts and offer many options of window treatments that are safe for infants, young children and pets.

Feel free to give us a call for more information or to make an appointment for a free in-home consultation.  You can also stop into one of our four locations to see all of our many child safety innovations.
