Blindsgalore Supports Child Safety Standards
for Hanging Cords on Blinds and Shades

Due to new child safety standards set in place with the Window Covering Manufacturing Association, free-hanging operating cords have been discontinued. This is an industry-wide change, meaning these products will no longer be available for sale in the U.S. and all companies who manufacture, distribute, or sell window coverings must comply with new standard.

Cordlock, Cordlock TDBU, Corded Tilt, Routeless, Cloth Tapes, and Cord/Chain Control lift options were discontinued and removed sitewide. This is due to mandatory guidelines regarding child safety from the Window Covering Manufacturing Assocation. This is a new window covering industry standard and will affect all companies who manufacture, distribute, or sell window coverings in the United States.
