No More cords! It is a new health Canada regulation.
The Government of Canada has announced that new regulations would be coming to effect on May 1st 2022, to prevent children from dying by strangulation. This means no more long cords are permitted on window blinds or coverings. Although you do not need to be worried about the new regulation if you have purchased your window blind or covering before May 1st 2022, it is recommended to change the mechanism to protect your children from strangulation. This is a great step to child safety and also more convenient for the users. At Diamond Blinds, we carry three amazing cordless options that we are sure you will love. Make your blinds safe and functional with the remote-controlled motorized, cordless, or wand upgrade.
Wand is the newest child-safe window covering technology which covers the entire length of the cord so that there is no safety issues for your child. It is very easy to use and is the most cost-effective solution for your window blinds.
Motorized has the most features and optimal functionality. You can control your blinds from anywhere in your home with the touch of a button. You can even program a schedule to open and close your blinds at any time. This feature is incredible if you want to wake up to the morning sunlight, warming and lighting up your bedroom. You can even use your phone to adjust the blinds, making light control truly at your fingertips. The remote-controlled option would also be ideal for tall windows that are hard to reach.
Cordless option is great for child safety because it is incredibly easy to use! All you have to do is hold the bottom bar of the window covering and pull down or push up to adjust the lighting to your liking. Because you are controlling the blind directly with your hand, it allows for extreme precision and you can get your blinds exactly how you want.
