If you live in a multiple-story home or apartment, you know the importance of window guards. Window guards, which are a bit different than security bars, help keep people—particularly children—safe in a room that has vertically open windows. Essentially, they are designed to keep children from falling out the window should they open it unsupervised. They are not, however, made to keep burglars and other intruders out.
Most apartments and homes (if applicable) that are taller than three stories are required by law to have guards installed on all vertically opening windows if they have a child ten years of age or younger present in their home, even if just temporarily. While the laws vary, it’s a good idea to get them installed, especially if you have young children coming to your home, even if they aren’t your own.
