Professional window restrictor fitting - limit how far windows open so children can't fall through. Fresh air without the risk.
### Windows Are Dangerous
Children fall from windows. **It happens more than you'd think** - curious children, open windows, tragic results. Restrictors prevent the opening from being wide enough to fall through.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Focus on upstairs windows first, especially bedrooms. Any window a child could reach when climbing on furniture.

Frequently Asked Questions about Window restrictor child in Newton Abbot
What does a window restrictor do?
Limits how far a window can open - usually to about 100mm. Enough for ventilation, not enough for a child to climb through. Prevents falls from open windows.
Can adults still open windows fully?
Most restrictors have a key or button release that adults can operate but children can't. You can fully open windows when needed, but default is restricted.
What about fire escape windows?
Fire escape windows need quick-release restrictors - adults can open fully in emergencies. Building regulations specify these for certain windows. We'll advise.
Do all windows need restrictors?
Upstairs windows definitely. Ground floor less critical unless you have specific concerns. Focus on bedrooms and rooms children access unsupervised.
