Most pet “parents” know that keeping their dog or cat safe can be just as difficult as keeping a toddler safe—there are many hidden dangers in the a home, especially if that pet is adventuresome or has separation anxiety. Finding pet-friendly window treatments is an important component in home safety. Luckily, Hunter Douglas, the leader in window treatment innovation, has designed numerous options that are both safe and attractive for a pet-friendly home. If you’d like to see some of these options in action, speak with a trained consultant at Window Treats here in New Jersey and New York.
Categories to Consider for Pet-safe Window Coverings
Here are a few product selections from Hunter Douglas that will add style and are pet-safe.
- Vertical Solutions Vinyl Blinds – An economical solution for sliding or patio doors. Available in 3 ½” slat size in an array of patterns and colors. Your pets can nudge the slats to see outside and the slats will then fall back into place
- Designer Roller & Screen Shades – Allows you to raise the shade to a comfortable position, so the pet can see out. They offer a sleek modern style with remarkably smooth operation, ease of lifting, and the smallest light gap in the industry. Roller and screen shades are available in hundreds of fabric choices, opacities, textures, and solids. Pets can sneak behind the shade without the threat of the shade falling down
- Everwood® Alternative Wood Blinds – Allows you to tilt open or closed the slats, so pets can see out. More durable than wood, but a large dog could still snap the slats
- NewStyle™ Hybrid or Palm Beach™ Polysatin Shutters – Both are very durable and difficult for pets to maneuver open. Shutters can withstand slight to medium pressure. Available in grain-like finishes, whites and off-white colors, and three slat sizes
Pet-Safe Operating Systems
The operating system is just as important as the product itself. Hunter Douglas offers a wide selection of lifting systems to enhance child and pet safety, including motorization, wand controls, cord tensioners, retractable lift cords, and more.
