Are Manual Blinds Safe?
If the manual blinds in your home were manufactured before the 2022 Consumer Product Safety Commission’s federal safety standard went into effect, then your loved ones may be at risk.
Pull cords or other accessible cords and cables are a strangulation hazard for pets and small children. Though the latest manual window treatments comply with the new safety regulations, automated blinds and shades add additional convenience and style to a much safer product. A cordless design eliminates risk, providing a safer environment for the entire family with a simple button tap.
Lutron Shades Add Style
Lutron offers a variety of custom fabrics and shading styles to choose from, including Roman shades, horizontal sheer blinds, drapery, and roller shades. Each adds beauty and functionality to your living spaces, enhancing the aesthetic appeal everywhere. Precise control over shade positioning also makes it possible to set the perfect ambiance and privacy levels throughout the day.
Enjoy On-Demand Adjustments
Manage your window treatments—even in hard-to-reach windows—from anywhere using a remote control, smartphone app, or voice command with smart home system integration. You can even program adjustments to occur automatically in response to the sun's position for maximized energy efficiency and to protect interiors from UV damage—all without lifting a finger.
