Child Safety - 'make it safe'
Castle Blinds is a
member of the BBSA and are fully committed to help
eliminate the risk associated with hazardous looped
operating cords, chains and tapes used on window blinds.
Window blind cords and chains must be kept out of
reach of babies and small children and there are many
solutions for new and existing blinds. Here is what you
should do now if you have babies or young children
living in your house or if babies or young children may
visit:
Examine every blind in your home. If they have a looped
control chain or cord and do not have a safety device
fitted then you can easily install one of the many
devices available. Castle Blinds will be happy to assist
you.
-
Ensure that all operating blind cords and chains
cannot be reached by children.
-
When buying a new blind always look for one that
does not contain cords, has concealed cords or has
an in-built safety device.
-
Move cots, beds and any furniture away from
windows and blinds – remember children love to
climb.
-
Castle Blinds like all BBSA members are fully
accredited to the 'make it safe' campaign.
