Cordless Blinds for Parents and Pet Owners
Kids and pets may not be the same thing, but they do come with a surprising amount of similar care needs. Safety comes with a lot of overlap between the two. One such concern is blinds cords. Hanging cords can be a huge safety hazard for small children and adventurous pets. Fortunately, there are cordless blinds for parents and pet owners available at Domir Blinds.
The Risks of Corded Blinds
If you’re new to parenting or pet ownership, you may not realize the risks associated with corded blinds. It’s important for you to know, so we’ll start there. Pets and small children simply love messing around with fun objects. For a small child, what’s more fun than a long, dangling cord? These cords almost always have multiple strings in them, tied at the bottom. This creates a loop of string, often reachable from the floor. If a child gets tangled in this cord, they could get choked. The same goes for a dog or cat that wandered into the cord by accident while looking out the window.
The best way to keep children and pets safe from blinds cords is to opt for cordless blinds. Fortunately, these are common in the blinds market, since they have a cleaner appearance.
Utilitarian Cordless Blinds
If you seek blinds that serve their purpose and not much else, we have utilitarian blinds at the ready for you. Our roller shades and roller screens are the perfect solution. These simply, utilitarian blinds are made of dense, flat panels that roll up at the top of the window. To open them, you can simply pull them down from the bottom. Or, if you’d like some cords that are safer, you can opt for a mounted chain.
Some blinds, like roller shades, can come with mounted chains. This chain functions like a blinds cord, but is mounted on the wall inside the window frame. There, it rests around a pulley system. You can pull one side and it will go around the pulley system to adjust your blinds. However, without any additional slack, it won’t become a hazard for pets or children.
Cordless Blinds with Style
If you’re looking for cordless blinds with a bit more style, one of our favorite cordless blinds designs is sheer vertical blinds. These blinds are more like curtains than standard blinds. However, they come in two layers with privacy built in. We think that makes them a bit more special than standard curtains.
The first layer is sheer and can only be looked through from the inside. This layer allows in filtered sunlight to illuminate your home. The second layer is a blackout layer to prevent sun from getting in at all. This makes them very versatile for your light adjustment needs.
