Window maintenance guidanceAsk your installer to confirm frame dimensions, installation allowances and any required emergency-escape opening. A nominal size or operating style alone does not establish suitability for a bedroom or basement.
Window screens do not prevent falls. Opening the upper sash or leaving a window partly open does not make it child-safe. Review fall-prevention measures and emergency access for the room.
