Installation of safety glass

• In some applications, such as a change of occupancy of a building, it may be necessary to upgrade glazing to that of safety glass.

Installation of deadlock window locks

• For total security of a window, it should be closed and latched shut, plus be fitted with a key operated dead lock. Exceed can incorporate the key for sash dead locks into a one key system, so one key is operating all your household locks.
• Opening windows need to be in good operating condition for reliable operation of sash dead locks. Exceed can advise of the sash condition and make curative recommendations as necessary.

Installation of security window stays

• Security stays restrict the opening width of a window and provide a low level of security to the open window while the house is occupied. Security stays can also be fitted to meet swimming pool requirements.
• Security stays have a number of benefits. They provide the low level of security, but can also be released to allow the window to open wide. The security stay can only be released from the inside when the window is closed, not in the open position.

Installation of safety stays

• Safety stays are not a security item. There design purpose is to restrict the opening width of a window to eliminate possibility of falling out of a window.
• Experience indicates that safety stays can provide a low level of security to an open window while the house is occupied.
• If safety Stays are wanted as a security item, please check with your insurance company to ensure your insurance cover is not compromised.
