Although you have many home projects to do this spring, you should never put window replacement on the backburner. Apart from leaking drafts in and heat out, failing windows can also make your home a less safe place.
In support of the Window Safety Week on April 3 to 9, All States Home Improvement discusses the roles windows play in keeping your family out of harm’s way:
Egress
Windows, especially in bedrooms, can be your lifeline in case of emergency. They provide a safe way out and an accessible entry point for the authorities in the hour of need. This is why you need to hire a pro when replacing your units to comply with egress requirements.
At All States Home Improvement, we’ll use our familiarity with the local building codes to design your replacement windows right. We’ll ensure your units can be used as adequate escape routes and allow passage for rescuers during a fire and other emergencies.
Security
Other than exterior doors, windows, particularly those located in the first floor, are a favorite target of intruders. Flimsy units only provide little protection against burglary.
Our products are built with security in mind. We provide premium products from Beechworth, Soft-Lite, and Wincore. The common denominator among the windows made by these leading manufacturers are thick glass, durable frame, and an impregnable locking system. They don’t just keep unwanted drafts and pleasant indoor heat but also prevent the most determined intruders out.
Child Safety
Did you know that window falls account for about 3,300 injuries and eight deaths among children five years and younger every year? With good window design, you can prevent these incidents from happening. All States Home Improvement is committed to helping you make your fiberglass composite and vinyl windows child-safe. We’ll optimize the custom features of our products to keep the risk of falls to a minimum.
In celebration of Window Safety Week, we encourage you to rid of your failing units and invest in high-quality windows. This way, you can observe window safety all year round and stop preventable tragedies from occurring. Let’s talk about your safe window replacement in Wichita, KS.
