In today's architectural design, outward opening windows are widely adopted due to their unique advantages, such as efficient space utilization and good ventilation performance. However, it is crucial to ensure the safety of outward opening windows. Here are some professional and reliable methods for enhancing the safety of outward opening windows:
1. Solid frame and sash construction
A solid foundation is the key to window safety. SIMBOR HOMEY series outward opening windows adopts an internal and external flat frame design, which not only has an integrated appearance, but also provides structural stability. The window adopts SIMBOR's original barrel arch mortise and tenon steel tenon structure, which significantly enhances the window's ability to resist external forces and prying.
The window uses 5+18A+5 insulating glass. The multi-cavity design not only improves the sound insulation and thermal insulation performance, but also increases the overall strength of the window. The unique 14.8 mm insulation strip further improves the insulation effect and reduces energy consumption, while also contributing to the structural integrity of the window.
2. High-quality hardware accessories
The hardware system plays an important role in the safety of outward opening windows. SIMBOR offers a standard hardware system that includes the new standard 401 fork handle, SIMBOR sliding support and the new standard straight handle (for screen locks). These components are precision engineered to work together seamlessly, ensuring smooth operation and reliable locking.
The hidden friction hinge is another key feature. It not only provides a clean look, but also provides a stable support for the window sash. The hinge design is able to withstand constant use and pressure, preventing the window from being easily displaced or forced open.
3. Effective Locking Mechanism
A reliable locking system is key to ensuring the safety of outward opening windows. SIMBOR windows are equipped with standard foot pad technology (assisted lifting blocks) and internal pressure wires to secure the glass. This ensures the stability and security of the window within the frame.
The optional anti-fall chain provides an additional layer of safety for the end user. It prevents the window from being opened beyond a certain angle, reducing the risk of accidental falls and unauthorized entry.
4. Proper Installation and Maintenance
Even the safest window design can be destroyed if it is not installed properly. It is critical to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and best practices to install outward opening windows. This includes ensuring that the windows are properly aligned, sealed, and securely anchored to the building structure.
Regular maintenance is also necessary to keep windows in good working order. This includes checking hardware for wear, lubricating moving parts, and cleaning window tracks and seals to prevent dirt and debris from affecting the operation of the window.
5. Security Upgrades and Customization Options
For added security, consider adding security film to your window glass. This film can help prevent the glass from shattering, making it more difficult for intruders to gain entry. Additionally, installing a window alarm system can provide an additional burglar deterrent.
SIMBOR offers a variety of colors and options to meet the needs of different customers. With 32 available colors, homeowners can choose a window design that not only meets their aesthetic preferences, but also incorporates security features that complement the exterior of their home.
In summary, ensuring the security of outward opening windows requires a combination of solid construction, high-quality hardware, an effective locking mechanism, proper installation and maintenance, and optional security upgrades. By implementing these measures, homeowners can ensure the safety and security of their homes while enjoying the benefits of outward opening windows.
