Cordless Window Treatments: The Best Choice for Child Safety

For decades, the temptation of playing with cords dangling from blinds and curtains has resulted in injuries, and even death, of small children and pets. The solution to this tragic situation? Cordless window treatments. Not only are they much safer, but they provide homeowners with peace of mind and convenience, as well as motorization.

Why Choose Cordless Window Treatments?

The number one reason why homeowners choose cordless window treatments is because of the safety it provides young children, pets, and other household occupants who may be at risk of strangulation due to corded window coverings. Cordless blinds and shades also enhance the features of your windows and aren’t as bulky since there are no strings hanging.

According to Health Canada, an average of one Canadian child per year has lost their life due to strangulation from corded window coverings. To combat this tragic statistic, the Canadian government has implemented strict regulations to restrict the length of cords and the size of loops allowed on window coverings sold in Canada. These regulations aim to eliminate the risk of strangulation entirely.

IMPORTANT: *This regulation only applies to window coverings for non-commercial use, such as domestic, recreational, or sports purposes.

Types of Cordless Window Treatments

At Texeuro Drapery, we offer a wide range of cordless window treatment options that cater to different needs and styles. Choose from cellular shades with bottom-up/top-down operation for energy efficiency, roller shades for various opacities, elegant Roman shades with a continuous loop system, or vertical blinds for large windows controlled by a wand.

Additional Features of Cordless Window Treatments to Consider

While safety is paramount, cordless window treatments have additional features that enhance their functionality. Cordless and motorized blinds make life easier thanks to remote control or smartphone integration systems. Depending on your needs, you can choose between light-filtering shades that allow natural light to flow through or blackout shades that provide complete darkness, ideal for bedrooms or media rooms.
