  • Has anyone got any experience of fitting things to UPVC windows that involve drilling into them?

    We need to fit some window restrictors like these ones to stop toddlers jumping out.

    My concerns:

    • Doing something bad to the window. Won't it undo the benefit of double glazing? And don't double-glazed windows have some kind of gas in between the panes?
    • How to cover/fill holes once our toddlers can be trusted to avoid throwing themselves out
  • @tbc you can also get restrictors that attach to the top of the unit which might be preferable once the kids are a little older so you don't need to cover any holes up. Also being slightly higher up at the top of the unit might make it a little safer (away from the wee greasy paws trying to rip the restrictors off!)
