Motorized Blinds Are A Child-Safe Choice

In June 2024, a new mandate from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the Window Covering Manufacturers Association came into effect that requires all custom window treatments in the US be sold without free-hanging cords in order to provide a safer environment for kids and pets.

Hunter Douglas EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds with PowerView® Automation near Alpharetta, Georgia (GA)

Your number one priority is keeping your home safe, especially if you have children living in your household. At Classic Blinds & Shutters Design Center, we recognize the unique need for safer window treatments with various available cord-free products, including motorized window treatments from Hunter Douglas with PowerView® Automation. Here, we discuss their benefits and introduce our selection of cordless blinds.

The Benefits of Motorized Blinds

  • Safety: is the most important benefit of motorized blinds. Since automation eliminates the need for dangling cords, you won't have to worry about unwanted accidents. This will make your home safer for children, vulnerable adults, and pets.
  • Security: is the second most important benefit motorization has to offer. PowerView® Automation allows you to program your blinds to raise and lower at certain times of the day, an excellent feature if are going on vacation or if you are away. Since you’re able to control PowerView® Automation remotely or via set schedule, your windows will open and close automatically and give the appearance of an occupied space, which helps keep potential harm away from your home.

Our Selection of Child-Safe Blinds 

Now that you understand the benefits of motorized blinds with safety features, let us introduce you to some of our favorites.
  • Parkland® Wood Blinds add natural warmth and character to any room. They are made with 100% hardwood sourced from sustainable forests, and their rich grains will add a distinct character to your home. These blinds are best suited for living rooms, dining rooms, and offices. You can select from over 50 true wood stain or solid paint colors, and for further appeal, you can add a decorative valance or cornice.
  • EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds are a great alternative to real wood blinds—perfect for homes with kids. They boast the look of painted wood but offer extended durability. Their primary structural materials are synthetic, which is better suited to stand up to the elements. They are perfect for busy kid’s rooms, sunrooms, and bathrooms and kitchens where heat, moisture, and humidity are common concerns.
  • Modern Precious Metals® Blinds are a perfect fit if you want to instill a modern, streamlined look into your home. You can select from over 70 color choices, including unique textures, bold brights, and calming neutrals. We offer these blinds in three different slat sizes: ½", 1", or 2". The thinner the slat, the sleeker the look. The wider the slat, the greater the view.
  • Skyline®Panel-Track Blinds are a superior choice for tall, wide windows or sliding glass doors. Their sleek fabric panels stack tightly together when opened for an all-around cohesive look. We offer these luxurious vertical blinds in over 450 fabric choices.
