Child Safety Information
ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2018 standard (developed by the Window Coverings Manufacturer’s Association and the Consumer Product Safety Commission) was established on December 15, 2018, to eliminate strangulation hazards for small children from hanging cords and chain loops. When dealers specify that custom shades comply with ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2018, Draper provides a pre-installed Spring Loaded Chain Tension Device shown at right for clutch-operated units. When properly installed, tension device prevents creation of a hazardous loop by maintaining tension on bead chain. If not installed properly, shade is partially inoperable. For more information, please see ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2018 compliance www.draperinc.com/windowshades/wcmacompliance.aspx
