ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2022 Child Safety Standard

Effective June 1, 2024, in compliance with the updated ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2022 child safety standard, all Draper window shades operated by a bead chain will be furnished with a tensioned hold-down device that is permanently attached and partially disables the product if not installed correctly. This hold-down should be installed with tension on the chain.

All bead chain operated window shades will include:

Permanently installed spring-loaded tensioned hold-down device
Approved permanent warning label attached
Approved mechanical fasteners for the tension device included. Screws provided are not suitable for all mounting surfaces. The installer is responsible for secure mounting using appropriate hardware for the site conditions. Consult with contractors and builders as needed.

If the tension device is not installed with appropriate tension on the bead chain, the shade will be rendered partially inoperable. If installed properly, the tension device will prevent the creation of a hazardous loop and will maintain tension on the bead chain.

Case Studies

Google at 1212 Bordeaux - Sunnyvale, CA

1212 Bordeaux is a Google facility constructed in 2017 in Sunnyvale, CA. It is a smaller construction than is typical for Google, as it is a pilot project featuring forward-thinking technologies that include custom Draper solar shading products.

Maker's Quarter Block D - San Diego, CA

Sustainability was a top priority for the architects behind Makers Quarter Block D in San Diego’s East Village tech corridor. Various methods were designed by BNIM to make it a net zero energy building. Their innovative facade includes sliding panels and motorized Draper Venetian blinds by Warema. The blinds can be retracted into custom headboxes or fully lowered, and the slats can be set at any angle to keep direct sunlight at bay.
