Birmingham Cordless Window Treatments
Big Changes Coming to Cordless Window Treatments
Updated safety standards developed by the Window Covering Manufacturers Association (WCMA) from the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) states that corded blinds, shades, drapes, and shutters are becoming obsolete. The new standard ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2022 has made it so free-hanging cords and connectors are no longer being produced. This reduces the chance of accidents and injury. Window treatments that are affected include cellular, pleated, Roman, solar, and vertical blinds. This takes effect on June 1, 2024.
How Can Window Treatments Be Cordless in Birmingham
No-string blinds can be opened or closed with ladder cords, the vertical cords that run through the slats of the blind, connecting them and allowing them to be raised or lowered evenly. Slats open and close by tilting, but do not feature a hanging cord alongside the treatment.
With the assistance of motorization, any window treatment sold at Bloomin’ Blinds of Birmingham can be made cordless. You can control your new window treatment with:
- Remote Control
- Smart and app-controlled features
- Motorized Wand
This state-of-the-art technology eliminates major safety concerns in homes with children and animals, and in businesses with hard-to-reach windows, or employees that do not have the time to deal with window coverings.
Cordless Treatments for Your Home
There are multiple benefits to having cordless blinds in your home:
- Compact & Sleek Design
- Child Friendly
- Pet Friendly
Though it may be hard to admit, we cannot always keep an eye on our children or pets 100% of the time. When it comes to hanging cords, there are safety concerns. Cords can be seen as a toy and can be very harmful when they are put in a child’s mouth or climbed on. Cordless technology eliminates that threat.
Also, having the ability to control the sunlight and visibility in and out of your home with the touch of a button is truly and amazing feature. You can transform your living room into a movie theater, give your electric bill a break by letting in natural sunlight, or create a romantic getaway in your bedroom, all at your fingertips.
Cordless Treatments for Your Business
Homes are not the only places that can benefit from cordless window treatments. Cordless window treatment options are also a great addition in:
- Schools
- Office buildings
- Doctor Offices
- Restaurants
Along with safety concerns, teachers can eliminate harsh sunlight and glare at certain times of day. Office workers can open and close their window treatments to enjoy the view outside, take away the sunspot on their computer or projector screen during an important meeting, or help warm up or cool down the office depending on the time of year. Restaurants can easily open or close the shades to protect their patrons from the sun’s rays.
