All internal blinds must comply with the 2014 child safety standards. In early 2014, the standards regarding the manufacture, supply and professional installation of internal window curtains and blinds changed significantly. The new standards aim to protect babies and small children and apply to new curtains and blinds. From now on, installation of child safe blinds and curtains in all homes is compulsory whether children are present or not. Child safety measures involve limitations on cord and chain lengths, using safety devices for preventing any cords or chains from creating a hazardous loop and safety warnings as appropriate. Shade In Style is fully compliant with the latest child safety standards for curtains and blinds for internal windows.
