Decorview Helps Homeowners Increase Child Safety In The Home
Portland, Oregon (PRWEB) October 27, 2015 -- Decorview, a leading seller of custom window treatments in North America, is offering free design advice to homeowners looking for window treatment solutions that adhere to child safety standards in the home.
“What many parents don’t realize is that window treatment operating cords are a potential hazard to young children and are among the top five hidden hazards in American homes,” said Kim Rush, VP of sales and merchandising for Decorview. “Because of this risk, window treatment manufacturers like Hunter Douglas, urge homeowners with young children to choose window treatments that are either fully cordless, fixed cord, or motorized.”
In an effort to raise awareness for window cord safety, the Window Covering Safety Council designated October as Window Coverings Safety Month, reminding parents to evaluate blinds or shades installed in the home for potential risks.
“Parents who are concerned about the safety of their window treatments should reference warning labels on their product or contact the manufacturer directly for more information. Window coverings that don’t adhere to child safety standards should be retrofitted or replaced,” added Rush.
Decorview sells the complete line of Hunter Douglas blinds, shades and shutters, many of which are available with child-safe features and operating systems. The LiteRise® cordless system eliminates hazardous dangling external cords, allowing homeowners to lift and lower coverings by pushing or pulling on the window treatment base. The UltraGlide® system features a retractable cord that remains safely out of reach. Window treatments equipped with PowerView™ Motorization are controlled using a smartphone, tablet or remote control, eliminating the need for operating cords.
