Go Cordless with Pet and Child Safe Window Treatments
If you have a pet or a child at home, you know how important it is to choose window treatments that do double- and sometimes triple-duty. You’re looking for solutions that are safe, durable, and easy to clean.
That's why our team at Premier Blinds and Designs has compiled a list of some of the best pet and child-safe cordless window treatments for your home.
Cordless Blinds
Pets and kids can be curious, playful, and sometimes messy, so you need cordless blinds that can withstand their antics. But importantly, you want window treatments that can perform wall and still look great in any space.
One of homeowners’ most common desires is finding a gorgeous cordless window treatment. With the growing popularity of this style, many homeowners are looking to replace old blinds that their furry friends have been busy chewing or scratching.
Some of our favorite options are:
Faux wood blinds
EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds look like natural wood but use synthetic materials with increased durability, making them less likely to warp, crack, or fade. You can clean faux wood blinds easily with a damp cloth or a vacuum cleaner. They come in a variety of colors and styles to match any décor, including wood-like grain to match your finishes.
Vertical blinds
Vertical blinds for large windows or sliding glass doors are perfect because of their increased size. You can open and close them easily with a wand to avoid the risk of cords. Vertical blinds are also less tempting for pets to chew or scratch because they hang vertically and don't have horizontal slats. These blinds are made of vinyl, fabric, or wood and come in many colors and patterns.
If you're looking for sleek, dog- and kid-proof cordless vertical blinds, check out Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds. Their wide panels are weighted at the bottom and lay beautifully wherever they are placed.
Motorized blinds
Motorized blinds are the ultimate in convenience and safety. You can control motorized blinds with PowerView® Automation using the Pebble® remote, the PowerView® smartphone app, or a voice assistant, eliminating the need for cords or wands. They also have sensors that detect obstacles and automatically stop if they encounter your pet or child.
Other Dog-Proof Options
Another issue that parents and pet owners face is their little ones pulling or tugging on their blinds. This can cause the blinds to fall off the window, injure the pet or child, or damage the window frame. To prevent this, you need window treatments that are cordless or have hidden cords.
Here are some of the options we recommend:
- Roller shades: Roller shades are simple, sleek and stylish. They roll up and down with an interior chain or a motorized system, leaving no cords or loops that could entangle your pet or child. Roller shades are easy to clean and come in various fabrics, colors, and opacities.
- Cellular shades: Cellular shades have a unique structure that traps air and insulates your windows. Cellular shades are cordless. You can operate them with a simple pull or push on the bottom rail. They also have no exposed edges that could hurt your pet or child. Cellular shades are available in various sizes, colors, and light filtering options.
