Child-Safe Window Treatments
When you have kids, you don’t want to sacrifice style for safety. You also don’t want to compromise safety for aesthetics. Luckily, modern advancements in design plus contemporary style come together in several models of child-safe window treatments from Hunter Douglas.
Child-Safe Window Treatments
Shutters
With children, especially during their younger years, safety is paramount. When looking for child-safe window treatments, one of the most important features is being cordless.
Cords and loose lines pose a strangulation hazard to young children and small pets who run the risk of becoming entangled in the cords. The construction of interior shutters is innately cord-free, making them child safe window treatments.
- Top Safety Features: Cordless construction
- Child Friendly Features: If you have kids in the house, it goes without saying that they’re going to test your goods. Shutters are extremely durable and able to stand up to heavy use with little sign of wear and tear. Plus, they are easy to clean, which is always an added benefit in households with children.
Motorized Shades
Motorized operating systems give homeowners the power to transform classic window shades into child safe window treatments. It does this by negating the need for hanging lines as part of the operating system. So, whether you want to update your children’s room with roller shades, drapery, Roman shades, cellular shades, or shutters you can find child-friendly versions with easy to control motorized operating systems in the Hunter Douglas collection.
- Top Safety Features: Elimination of hanging lines
- Child Friendly Features: There’s enough to think about with little ones running around. Don’t add “opening and closing shades” in the kid’s room as yet another daily chore on your endless to-do list. Instead, opt for motorized shades with automated options for control. Wake your kids up naturally with shades opening to the morning light then at the end of the day create private, protected and darkened spaces with shades that close automatically.
