Child-Safe Window Replacements

July 5, 2021
replacement windows in Santa Barbara, CA

There are lots of things to consider when you are in the market for replacement windows in Santa Barbara, CA. Your children are something you consider in everything you do, even when you get new windows. You want the windows to look nice and be efficient, but you also want them to be safe for your children. Here are some things you might want to consider or include to help your child remain safe in your home around the windows.

Window Locks

The locks are going to be an important part of the safety you have on your windows around your children. If you don’t want your child to be able to open the window and possibly fall out, the locks need to be child-proof, or high enough on the window that the child can’t access it.

Style Options

If your child has a second floor bedroom, you might want to be able to ventilate their room, but you want to do so in a safe manner. You can’t watch your child every second of the day, as much as you’d like to. Consider double hung windows for their room to give you a safer style. You can open the top half of the window, which slides from the top down and leave the bottom half closed and locked. When you aren’t in the room, you can still get fresh air in, but you don’t have to worry about your child having an accident.

Triple Pane Glass Is Thicker

Double pane glass is great, but triple pane glass gives more efficiency and another layer of insulation. It’s also a thicker window overall so if your child throws something that hits a window by accident, the window is a lot less likely to break and cut with glass. Likewise, if they stumble into a window, they are more likely to bounce off than break through the window, which makes the home a safer place for them all the way around.

UV Protective Options

There are a lot of different upgrade options to consider and you could get a low-E coating on the glass of the windows you install. That coating blocks the heat of the sun, making the home more efficient and more comfortable, but it also blocks the UV rays that can come in, fade items, and damage the home. Your child is that much more protected from the sun’s damage.
