Child safe blinds

Concerned about child safety? At Devonshire Blinds, we take this matter extremely seriously. All of our window blinds comply with BS EN 13120 regulations.

Child safety will always be your top concern – and it’s ours, too

Blinds with cords and chains (such as roller, Venetian, wooden, Roman and pleated blinds) pose a very serious risk to children. Since 2014, when new safety regulations came into force (BS EN 13120) all blinds have been required to come fitted with safety features that protect children from harm - this applies whether you have children in your home or not (since children could potentially visit you at any time).

 

At Devonshire Blinds, we make every effort to ensure the safety of our window coverings, providing peace of mind to parents and homeowners everywhere.

 

Please note that, regardless of any safety measures we have put in place, you should never leave a child unsupervised in a room where there are blinds.

From the second we walked into the showroom we knew we had made the right choice. The fitter arrived within a week of our windows being measured up and look fantastic. I cannot believe the good value. Very impressed with the whole experience from Devonshire blinds. We were kept informed from everybody. Thank you from a very very happy customer. I would not hesitate to anyone thinking of getting blinds to use Devonshire.

Just had our shutters and blinds fitted in our new build house by Devonshire Blinds. The whole process from ordering to fitting was absolutely brilliant. Our roller blinds were fitted within a couple of weeks, and it was explained to us that the shutters had an extended lead time, so Devonshires fitted temporary blinds where we needed them in the meantime. The choice and quality was amazing, and we are really pleased with everything we have had done. Also, the prices we found were really competitive and we felt they were very reasonable for such high-end products. We have had lots of compliments from neighbours and friends and we have, and will recommend them to anyone. Thanks again Devonshires "great service" Baz and Kaz

Fantastic service. Lots of choice and help in the showroom. Our window is particularly wide, just over 2 metres, the same width as most of the blind fabrics. The cutter advised us he would try to get the maximum width from the fabric. A measuring service is provided and we were guaranteed a minimum width which covered the actual glass. In the event the finished blind was the full 2 metres and covered the window perfectly. Fitting is also included in the price, and Steve had the blind fitted perfectly very quickly and cleanly. The blind was made from quote to fitting in about 10 days. I had seen a blind on-line but was worried about the fitting. Devonshire Blinds, measured, made and fitted the blind for less than the price of my on-line choice with the added benefit of their advice and experience. It was so much easier to have the full service rather than buying and fitting ourselves. I have no hesitation in recommending Devonshire Blinds.

What makes our blinds safe for children?

There are a variety of ways we can make blinds safer for kids. One option is to use the cordless-wand operating system, which means no cord is required for opening or closing your blinds.

 

Cleats and hooks (installed more than 1.5 metres above the ground) allow you to tidy away cords and loose strings, whilst breakaway child safety clips will cause the loop to come apart when pressure is exerted on it, minimising the harm caused by an accidental fall.
