Experience exhilarating window treatment adventures while protecting little loved ones with Blinds By Design's cutting-edge child safety services in Portland. Our passion for innovative blind solutions meets our devotion to family welfare, crafting next-level safety into dazzling window décor.
Before making choices about your window coverings, we want you to be aware of the steps we take to ensure child safety.
When properly installed, our child-safe window treatments are designed to prevent entanglement or strangulation by keeping cords and chains taut. They also lock in place if the cord or chain is pulled away from the window frame or another secure attachment point, ensuring added safety.
Alternatively, choosing blinds and shades with internal electric motors provides a child- and pet-safe option that’s also highly convenient. These automated treatments can seamlessly integrate into residential or commercial automation systems, giving you complete control via remote, smartphone, or wall switches—eliminating any cord- or chain-related risks.
Cordless options are also available, featuring an internal spring mechanism that allows easy manual operation without chains or cords. This system lets you adjust the coverings effortlessly by hand, creating a safe, clutter-free environment.
