THE

Sarahs Experience
I was building a new home and as a rst time builder I was really nervous about choosing the wrong window treatments. Kresta put all of those worries to rest by spending the time to understand what kind of look I was going for, and what kind of functionality was important to my family. I spent time choosing fabrics in the showroom and my consultant, Irena, sat down with me to go over all of the plans. Weve moved in now and I couldnt be happier.

We support & supply Child Safe Blinds & Curtains

Cant completely avoid the cords? Here are Krestas hot tips for keeping your windows child safe: Keep babies cots well away from windows and ensure that all blind and curtain cords are out of reach. Dont place furniture next to windows where possible toddlers love climbing! A tension device (either a chain tensioner or cleat) can be anchored to the wall or oor so that young children cannot play with cords or put them around their neck.

CHILD SAFETY
There is nothing more important to Kresta than the safety of its customers, particularly babies and young children. Kresta is especially mindful of the issues of child safety when it comes to window coverings. The pull cords, chains and bead cords are a potential hazard to young children who may become entangled in them. Kresta complies with all window covering legislation and supplies safety devices that limit or remove access to cords or chains, giving you complete peace of mind. Krestas unique safetrak range eliminates the need for potentially dangerous cords and chains in your home. This helps create a safer environment for children and pets.
