Pool Safety Compliance
- Windows opening onto any pool area must not open more than 100mm or must have permanently fixed security screens on windows.
- Louvres with a gap of more than 100mm do not comply.
- Installing window locks is not acceptable as they can be easily left unlocked.
Children's Bedroom Windows
- May 2018 - Alspec and Kidsafe Australia have just signed a three year partnership to address concerns regarding the implementation of new building regulations which have the potential to leave young children dangerously at risk from falling out of windows.
- With a growing number of Australian families now living in multi-story dwellings, window falls are something that is becoming increasingly top of mind for many parents. Families need to make sure their windows are secured with the correct devices that are tested to meet required safety standard.
