Cord Cleats

Hunter Douglas offers cord cleats and we recommend their use.

 

Attach two cord cleats 6" to 12" apart at a height where they will be out of 
the reach of children. Take into account that a child may stand on furniture 
attempting to reach the cords. Be sure the cleats are firmly secured. 

 

Once the cleats are attached, wrap excess cord around them after each use 
of the blind.
