3 Reasons Why It’s Important To Invest in Cordless Blinds
Not too long ago, most homeowners had to use finicky, often hazardous cords to adjust their blinds. They often tangled, wore out quickly, and created safety concerns in homes with younger children or pets. Over time, folks began craving safer, more reliable options that didn’t require constant adjustment or worry.
At Wessco Blinds, we offer various Hunter Douglas blind styles in both horizontal and vertical orientations, with alternative cordless systems, including PowerView® Automation. If you’ve been wondering whether or not you should invest in these window treatments, here are our top three reasons why we think you should take the plunge.
1. Increased Safety
The biggest reason homeowners switch from corded blinds to cordless is safety. In fact, certain styles
have been banned for increased safety. Whether you have small children or pets, dangling cords can pose an everyday hazard. Cordless window blinds, however, eliminate that risk with various operating systems that kick cords to the curb.
Our team always highly recommends adding cordless blinds to nurseries and kids’ rooms first, then expanding to other areas of your home.
2. Streamlined Appearance
One of the chief aesthetic complaints of corded blinds is visual clutter. By just dangling there, these types of window treatments take away from the style of your window treatments.
Cordless blinds, however, fit perfectly within the window frame and provide a clean, streamlined appearance. While this works for just about any home aesthetic, modern and contemporary homes will especially appreciate this perk.
3. Improved Ease of Operation
You’re trying to enjoy some shade or views, and your cords decide to do everything but that. We’ve all been there. Corded blinds are known for their fussy, unreliable operation. And who has time to battle their blinds?
Cordless window blinds provide smooth operation, especially when you choose Hunter Douglas styles. From hands-free PowerView® Automation to reliable push/pull systems, these cordless blinds are easier than ever to adjust. They’re also excellent for those who may have trouble gripping cords.
