The safety of children is of course important all year long, but the month of October is set aside to put issues of child safety in the spotlight. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, window coverings with dangling cords are among the top five hidden hazards in American homes. Over the last few decades window treatment manufacturers have focused on child safety, and none more than Hunter Douglas. As a Hunter Douglas Gallery dealer serving the Washington DC area, we have many cordless options for you.
