Frequently Asked Questions about Children's Blinds

What are the best blinds to have with children and toddlers?

The best blinds to have with children and toddlers are cordless blinds, and motorised blinds because they do not have looped cords or chains that can pose a risk to smaller children and infants if they are not held under tension out of reach. Cordless and motorised options eliminate the risk of strangulation. Where cords are chains are featured on blinds, they should be fitted with breakaway devices which allow loops to break apart under load or tensioning devices, which keep cords out of reach.

Both solutions are excellent for out of reach skylight windows. And of course, a solar powered blind for a VELUX window is child safe by design, since it uses no cords or chains in its operation.
