In Malaysia, more and more young families are living in high-rise apartments or double decker houses. For families with children, doors and windows are not only ventilation and lighting tools, but also important facilities related to children’s safety. Reasonable door and window design can effectively reduce unexpected risks.
1、 Common door and window safety hazards in Malaysian households
In local residential areas, child related door and window hazards mainly include:
The window opening angle is too large
The door and window locks are too low, making it easy for children to open them
Sliding doors lack anti pinch design
Balcony doors and windows have no additional protection
These issues are particularly important in high-rise residential buildings.
2、 Door and window safety configuration suitable for families with children
To enhance home safety, it is recommended to choose the following door and window configurations:
Limit opening system, controlling the angle of window opening
Child safety lock to prevent accidental operation
Tempered or laminated glass to reduce the risk of breakage
Anti pinch door and window structure to avoid injury from pinching
Currently, many Malaysian aluminum alloy doors and windows have incorporated these designs into their standard configuration.
3、 Differences in child safety between apartments and row houses
In high-rise apartments, window safety is the top priority;
In row houses, sliding doors, anti-theft measures, and entrance and exit safety are equally important.
Therefore, the door and window scheme should be adjusted according to the type of residence and household structure.
4、 The advantages of locally customized doors and windows
Choosing a manufacturer that provides customized door and window services in Malaysia allows for targeted design based on family member structure, rather than using a uniform configuration, resulting in higher safety.
