Hunter Douglas Child Safety Features

Hunter Douglas blinds and shades provide child safety options, including:

Break-Thru® Safety Tassel
The safety tassel is designed to break open under pressure should a child or pet become entangled in the cord loop. This is a standard feature on all Hunter Douglas horizontal blinds.

PermAssure®
Verticle blinds can be outfitted with the PermAssure safety wand, which eliminates looped pull cords completely.

Ultraglide®
This retractable-cord system keeps the cord at the same length whether the shade is raised or lowered, thereby making the cords less accessible to young children.

LiteRise®
Raise or lower blinds with the touch of a hand. A hidden control system keeps the shade or blind in a constant state of balance. It’s a great safety enhancement for households with children and pets or those with limited hand dexterity.

Hunter Douglas blinds provide additional energy efficiency benefits as well as privacy and UV protection for furniture. Learn more about the Hunter Douglas shades that qualify for the Federal Tax Credit.
