Our Commitment to Child Safety
We understand the importance of child safety, especially when it comes to blinds, shutters, and awnings. All our products are designed with your children’s safety in mind, ensuring that your window coverings are secure, safe, and suitable for homes with young children.
Compliance with Australian Safety Standards
We take great pride in adhering to the Australian Standard AS/NZS 4388:2014 for window coverings. This standard covers the safety of cords, chains, and other operating devices, ensuring they are installed and operated safely to prevent any risk to children.
What This Means for You:
-
No Dangerous Loops or Cords: All our blinds and shutters are fitted with safe cord management systems, reducing the risk of entanglement.
-
Safe Chain and Cord Systems: We use safe operating mechanisms, such as breakaway chains, and ensure that any cords or chains are out of reach of children.
-
Cordless and Motorized Options: For ultimate peace of mind, we offer cordless and motorized solutions, which eliminate the risk of cords altogether.
-
Safety Devices for Existing Products: We offer child-safety devices, such as cord cleats and chain tensioners, which keep cords securely fastened and away from children.
Types of Child-Safe Products We Offer
Cordless Blinds
Our cordless blinds are a perfect choice for families, with no hanging cords to worry about. They provide both style and peace of mind, operating smoothly with a simple touch.
