7230--DOMILICILARY WINDOW TREATMENTS
This project requires the installation of anti-ligature window shades with a security box fascia within a behavioral health unit. The Basis of Design specifies certain products, but equal products meeting all salient characteristics, including being anti-ligature with specific fabric and certifications, are acceptable. If proposing an equal product, a sample or demonstration is required within two weeks of submission. Existing valences must be removed, and custom fabrication for arched valences is approved. The VA's preference is for a system that includes both square and curved fascias, provided it is anti-ligature.
