Blind Safety Regulations

Blind Safety Regulations

All of our blinds adhere to the UK’s safety regulations, so you can be confident in our products. You’ll find the exact specifications we follow for Roman, woodslat, Venetian and vertical blinds below.

Roman Blind Safety Regulations

Our Roman blinds are made to British Standard Law EN 13120 Child Safety for Blinds.

  • Sidewinder headrails include a fly wheel safety device as standard, whereby if any force is exerted on the chain, it will pop out of the headrail.
  • If the folds of the Roman blind are longer than 20cm, we also use cord breakers for the rear cords.

While we adhere to strict guidelines to ensure the safety of our customers, please keep all cords out of reach from children to minimise the potential for accidents.
