In Malaysia, besides aesthetics and insulation, safety is equally important for doors and windows. Especially for families with children, elderly people, or living in high-rise apartments, if doors and windows are selected or installed incorrectly, there may be safety hazards, but they are often overlooked.
1、 The most easily overlooked risks in high-rise residential buildings
Many apartment windows have:
Opening angle too large
No limit device
The lock structure is simple
Not safe for children and pets.
2、 What are the key configurations for safety doors and windows?
What truly affects safety is not whether the appearance looks “thick or not”, but rather:
Multi point lock system
Anti pry structure design
High strength tempered glass
These are the core.
3、 Is sliding the window safe?
Sliding windows are common in Malaysia, but it is important to note that:
Is there an anti derailment design in place
Can a safety lock be installed
Is the glass a safety glass
Well configured, sliding windows are equally safe.
4、 How to choose doors and windows for families with children?
Suggested priority consideration:
Open the window with an inward opening
Equipped with a child safety lock
Enable restricted structure
It is both ventilated and reassuring.
5、 Key anti-theft measures for detached houses and row houses
For landed houses:
The first floor doors and windows need to be strengthened to prevent prying
Door and window locks should be reliable
Can be paired with anti-theft nets or hidden designs
Safety and aesthetics can be balanced.
6、 Inadequate installation, safety equals zero
No matter how good the security configuration is, if:
The lock is not aligned
Window frame deformation
loose screw
All of them will affect security performance.
