October Is Child Safety Month

All too often, people don’t consider window coverings as being a hazard to children or pets. Yet, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, window treatments with dangling cords are among the top five hazards in American homes.

In recent years, Hunter Douglas, the leader in child and pet safety, has added numerous improvements to traditional window treatment operations, as well as providing cordless options to make your home safe from potential hazards. At Bretz Interiors, we are a Hunter Douglas dealer serving the Denver area, and if you’re thinking about buying new child-safe blinds or shades, we have many options for you to choose from.
