Blind Cord Child Safety

The blind is supplied with a tension device which reduces the hazards of strangulation and entanglement of young children by limiting access to the control cord.

  • Do not place a child's cot, bed, playpen or high chair near a window so they may reach a blind cord
  • Do not place furniture near a window that a child could climb on to reach the blind cord
  • Do make sure that a safety device is fitted to keep the cord taut or out of reach
