Hunter Douglas Motorization for Child and Pet Safety

When it comes to a home, safety is of the utmost importance. It is essential to find home décor that matches your lifestyle with children or pets running around. Even the smallest items can cause harm to children or pets, so avoiding loose, looped, easily pulled cords is recommended when choosing window coverings. Several Hunter Douglas shades come with specialized cordless or motorized systems to keep paws off your shades and your dearest small ones protected. Not to mention, 45% of break-ins happen during the day; so, it is crucial to have shades that prevent onlookers from seeing in. With so much else to worry about within a home, we want to make sure that your window shade experience is smooth, safe, and easy.

The LiteRise® System by Hunter Douglas: Two cordless, hassle-free shadeswith a natural feel and promised safety

The LiteRise® System by Hunter Douglas is extremely easy to operate- simply push the shade up or pull it down to put it right where you want it. Maneuvering the shades by pushing and pulling eliminates the danger of cords and rods. Here are some of our favorites:

1. Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Window Shadings: Accent of soft light with all the safety

The Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Window Shadings are the perfect mix between a touch of sunlight trickling through and complete privacy. The S-shaped vanes tilt at different angles, allowing light to peek in, but prevent outsiders from looking in. When the vanes are open, the white rear shear still acts as a barrier. This means that strangers can’t sneak a view into your house. 

Having children within the household also means that your window shadings should guard them against incoming sunlight and UV rays. Fortunately, the Silhouette® Window Shadings offer an 88% blocking of harmful UV rays, while still giving you a maximized view of the outdoors. Want a room darker and more private? Just use the LiteRise® system to close the vanes all the way and enjoy!

2. Hunter Douglas Provenance® Woven Wood Shades ~ Artfully designed, inherently safe 

The Hunter Douglas Provenance® Woven Wood Shades match the ease and safety of the LiteRise® system with organic woods, grasses, bamboo, and reeds. They bring the element of nature indoors while keeping peepers out and your loved ones safe. The Provenance® Woven Wood Shades carry optimal light control, meaning exceptional privacy. Designed with strong materials that prevent stretching, bowing, and breaking- they’re perfect for a household with children and pets running around. Coming in three customizable styles, the Provenance® Woven Wood Shades are meant to be your easy-to-use, whole-home solution.
