Motorization, Automation, Smart Window Treatments, and Child Safety

Make Your Home Child-Friendly with Motorization

Children and pets are two of the things that can make a house a home, but your home may not be the safest space for them. The Window Covering Safety Council (WCSC) says that window coverings with corded adjustments are one of the top five hidden dangers in American homes; anyone with pets knows they can be a dangerous annoyance, as well. Going cordless is an easy choice, but what if there was an even better option? We’re here to tell you there is: PowerView® Motorization on Hunter Douglas window products.

Child Safety + Motorization Benefits

PowerView® Motorization takes cordless window adjustments to new levels. Not only is there nothing for your child or pet to get tangled in, but your blinds or shades also adjust themselves – and we mean that literally if you set up an automated schedule for your new motorized window coverings. Your window coverings can open and close on time every day, or they can be set to open when the sun rises and close when it sets! If you prefer to adjust them at flexible times each day, just pair them with your favorite digital assistants, such as Siri, Alexa, or Google, and your curtains and shutters will adjust with a simple command phrase. If digital assistants aren’t your thing, there’s always the option to use the Pebble® Remote to adjust your blinds with the touch of a button.

How can this improve the child and pet safety of your home? With your window coverings motorized and automated through PowerView®, the adjustment mechanism is completely hidden and out of reach. There are no cords, and with a variety of power options available, you can choose from recessed hardwired options to simple battery wand attachments for maximum child-friendliness.

As an added benefit, you can set your PowerView® window treatments to help you with your little ones or furry family members. Set your child’s window treatments to close at bedtime, so no matter how light it is outside, they’ll be ready for a good night’s rest. Make sure the shades near your door are kept closed during the time of day you receive packages, so your dog doesn’t harass the delivery person through your windows (and possibly even damage your windows!). PowerView® Automation can make your life easier and safer at the same time.

Styles Suitable for Child Safety + Motorization
