Over 4,000 children under the age of 15 are injured yearly from unsecured windows according to The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents; which is why it is equally as important to ensure a window cannot be easily opened from the inside as it is the outside. The lockable window restrictor from MAX6MUM SECURITY has a 20cm long cable, which when installed correctly will limit opening to under 100mm. Not only will this prevent the window from opening too far and a child from falling from it, but it will still allow for free flowing air to circulate around a room. The restrictor can withstand forces over 100kg, which is more than enough to take the weight of any child and is twice the industry standard, exceeding strength requirements set out in EN 16281. Window Locks Also known as a sash jammer, window locks are an easy to fit and an affordable window security measure. By levering the door or sash leaf of a window and creating a gap, burglars are able to access a windows lock. But, by installing a window lock, with just a twist of the locks handle you are adding resistance, deterring forced entry. Window locks come with either a white or brown finish and with 1mm and 2mm packers. Each pack can be fitted to either uPVC doors or windows. They are very simple to install, coming with step by step instructions. 0161 796 7268 [email protected] September 2016 UAP Magazine 5 High Security Door Chains We have a selection of MAX6MUM SECURITY Unlike other door chains which can break when exposed door security products available, including to the slightest force, extra strong sliding door chains sliding door chains and Secured by Design from MAX6 are made entirely of steel and each link has approved narrow door chains. been individually welded for additional strength.
