Child Safety

Cords hanging from window coverings can be a safety hazard; to avoid an unfortunate accident or injury we suggest you follow this safety checklist:

 

  • Examine all blinds in your home for exposed or dangling cords
  • Ensure there are no accessible cords on the front, side or back of the product
  • Make sure you position cots, beds and other furniture against walls that have no windows and cord from the blinds

I write to thank you for the free ’Upgrade’ you did to the Shutters in my sun room last Tuesday 20.01.2015. Your team was on time, went about the upgrade in a very professional manner and cleaned up after they had finished. May I complement you on a well-run outfit, not seen very often these days. Good for you and Taylor Blinds! For your information I had your shutters fitted to the entire house some 6 to 7 years ago. With my best wishes for 2015 and keep up your efficient business.

The result is perfect and we are delighted at having made the choice to install ThermoWood. Our living room, we think, is now spectacular. Thank you for contacting the other people on our behalf and thank you for coming here so promptly after my call..."  
- Mr & Mrs Reich – Thermowood
Just a quick email to say thanks to your team for the superb service at a very reasonable price I recently received on some repairs to blinds that Taylor supplied a little while back. Really impressed with the communication, service and cost of doing business with you folks. Do you guys have a Facebook page so that I can post something positive online? Otherwise please convey my appreciation to your team.  
- Paul Giot – Blue Stream Consulting
I don't know how I get to be so fortunate, but the same wonderful guys, who I always call The A Team, came to sort out my noisy, vibrating, shutters for me. Please feel free to charge me for the service, as it has always been an absolute pleasure to deal with Taylor Blinds. The men in your employ are so polite and professional in the work that they do. They explained exactly what they were going to do, and the result it perfect. I am so grateful to TB, as the installation of my shutters has been the best thing I could ever have done. They are incredibly easy to maintain, and they make my little flat look like a million dollars. And that is why I have no reservations about promoting your product and the fact that you have such great after sales service.  
- Rona
Thanks again for such great service. It’s so rare and is why I don’t even bother getting other quotes and wasting my time with companies that want the business but don’t want to do the work for it. Cape Town | May 2016  
- Sarah Henderson
Just want to thank you for your excellent service. I’m so pleased to experience the same good service as I did more than 20 years ago when you installed my blinds for the first time.  The great thing is that my one set of blinds is still in such good condition that I only had to do the odd repair.  This is what I call good quality and good service. I also want you guys to give recognition to the staff who deliver and install the blinds as they are spot on and always on time. It is my pleasure to recommend you to all my friends.  
- Sonia Cordier
Words fail me! Nowhere have I received such fantastic and brilliant service, and I really would like you to know that Taylor Blinds are tops!

Thank you Gina and her installation team for neat, prompt, efficient and professional service!An absolute pleasure to work with. Cape Town | July 2016  
- Thomas Bridges
I would just like to thank you and your team for the advice, professionalism and most pleasant way that Taylor Blinds dealt with our project. John and his installation team did exactly what we expected, and when they said they would (which can be quite rare these days!). When the installation team arrived and hauled out their vacuum cleaner my wife said ‘I like them already’, before they even started! Well done guys, we look forward to enjoying our new shutters for years to come.
