At Village Blinds and Shutters, Child Safety is of Paramount Importance.
Instinctively drawn to explore their surroundings, it’s vital to make your home as safe as possible.
Taking care to child-proof blinds and curtains throughout the home is a vital step for all parents and carers. Loose blind cords pose a risk of entanglement and strangulation, so we offer a range of safety devices on all our blinds to make your blinds safe. These discreet safety devices are designed to keep your family safe whilst maintaining the look of your blinds.
Here at Village Blinds & Shutters our entire range of blinds comply with child safety requirements (BS EN 13120) for extra peace of mind.
We have a range of safety devices available depending on the type of blind you choose. From cord cleats to safely wrap cords out of reach of children and babies on wooden and Roman blinds to chain-break connectors which are suited to vertical and roller blinds. We also have a range of tie-down clips and cord tidies which are ideal for Romans, rollers and vertical blinds.

At Village Blinds and Shutters, every blind we fit is meticulously installed to meet stringent European safety regulations. We ensure that our window treatments not only enhance the beauty and functionality of your home but also adhere to the highest child safety standards.
Our blinds feature essential child safety components such as breakaway connectors on blind chains, designed to snap open under pressure to prevent entanglement. Additionally, we provide retention devices to secure loose cords and chains to the wall, keeping them out of reach of children.
Our blinds also include cord condensers that gather multiple cords into a single, manageable unit, reducing the risks posed by dangling cords. These child safety measures reflect our unwavering commitment to creating a safe and stylish environment for your family.
At Village Blinds and Shutters, we offer motorised blinds that provide the ultimate in child safety and convenience. As Somfy Certified Experts, we ensure that our motorised blinds are equipped with advanced technology, eliminating the need for cords or chains entirely.
This design significantly reduces the risk of accidents, making our motorised blinds an ideal choice for homes with young children. With just a touch of a button or a simple voice command, you can effortlessly control your blinds, creating a safe and seamless environment for your family.
