Home Safety Guidelines
To further reduce risk, consider the following best practices:
- Keep furniture, cribs, and climbable items away from windows
Choose cordless window coverings whenever possible
Inspect existing shades for exposed or hanging cords
Retrofit or replace outdated corded products with safer alternatives
Keep pull cords short and secure continuous loop cords to the wall or floor
Ensure cord stops are properly installed and functioning
Always keep cords out of children’s reach
For retrofit assistance, you may contact the Window Covering Safety Council directly.
We support and promote the following safety checklist in conjunction with WCSC and CPSC:
- Move all furniture, cribs, beds and climbable surfaces away from windows.
- Install only cordless window coverings in homes with young children.
- Check your current window treatments for exposed or dangling cords. To order a free retrofit kit for older window treatments, contact the Window Covering Safety Council directly: 1-800-506-4636, info@windowcoverings.org, windowcoverings.org
- Make sure tasseled pull cords are as short as possible. Continuous loop pull cords on roller panel track and vertical blinds should be pulled tight and anchored to the floor or wall.
- Be sure cord stops are properly installed and adjusted to limit inner-cord movement.
- Keep all window cords well out of the reach of children.
