A small, yet very effective, and extremely affordable solution for unsecured windows is the UAP white lockable window restrictor. The lockable window security restrictor has a 20cm long cable, which when installed correctly will limit the opening of the window to under 100mm. Not only will this prevent children from being able to fit through the gap, but it also allows enough air to circulate around a room. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents provides research that states that in the UK over 4,000 children, under the age of 15, are injured yearly from unsecured windows which they fall out of, with 2,000 of these accidents involving children under 5 years old. Can be used on all types of windows and doors including uPVC, aluminium, wooden and metal profiles 20cm long restrictor restricts window opening to under 100mm Can withstand forces over 1000N (1KN) The unit is lockable so the window can be fully opened if necessary Comes with 1 universal key additional keys are available Supplied with 4 self drilling screws Locking system and key resistant to oxidation and corrosion Tested to EN 13126-5:2011 + A1:2014 The window restrictor is lockable, and can be unlocked using a key if necessary, and the window will then be able to be opened fully. Due to this reason, it is possible to fit the UAP lockable window restrictor on fire escape windows, provided that the user keeps the key within easy reach. One of the important features on the UAP window restrictor is the strength of the cable once locked into the locking system. Some window restrictors claim that the strength of the cable exceeds 500kg. However, even though this may be true, it does not mean anything as it is the strength of the cable once locked into the locking system that actually matters. The UAP window restrictor, once the cable in locked into the locking system, can withstand forces over 100kg, which is more than enough to take the weight of any child. This is twice the industry standard which is 50kg! The cable itself is made from hardened steel, which makes it extremely difficult to cut. It makes the window restrictor ideal for customers who are based on ground floors, and want to leave their windows open but are afraid that they may be broken in to!
