Available in 12\", 16\", 20\", and 24\" lengths with 13 mm or 17 mm stack heights, it fits most top-hung PVC-u windows. Tested to BS EN 13126-5, the restrictor meets Building Regulations Part K by limiting openings to 100 mm where fall heights exceed 600 mm, reducing the risk of accidents in homes, apartments, and multi-occupancy buildings. A quick-release lever allows full sash opening for cleaning or ventilation, with the restrictor automatically re-engaging when closed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor lasting performance, the Yale Defender hinge incorporates a robust cam friction device, asymmetric location system for consistent closure, and an enclosed end cap with vent arm for improved weather sealing (BS 6375-1). Its slot-hole-slot fixing enables secure, adjustable installation into PVC-u reinforcement. Cycle tested 30,000 times, corrosion tested to 96 hours, and both Secured by Design approved and BBA certified, it ensures safe, smooth operation for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBuilding Regulations Part K compliant\u003c\/strong\u003e – restricts openings to 100 mm where fall heights exceed 600 mm (BS EN 13126-5 tested) \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in restricted opening\u003c\/strong\u003e – helps prevent accidental falls for residential safety \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAutomatic re-engagement\u003c\/strong\u003e – restrictor resets when the window is closed \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eQuick release lever\u003c\/strong\u003e – allows the sash to open fully for cleaning or maximum ventilation \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAsymmetric location system\u003c\/strong\u003e – ensures accurate closure and alignment every time \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRobust cam friction device\u003c\/strong\u003e – prevents friction screw misuse and ensures consistent performance \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eImproved weather sealing\u003c\/strong\u003e – extended enclosed end cap and vent arm design (tested to BS 6375-1) \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDurable slot-hole-slot fixing\u003c\/strong\u003e – ensures secure fixing into PVC-u reinforcement and allows easy adjustment \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProven long-term performance\u003c\/strong\u003e – endurance tested to 30,000 cycles, corrosion tested to 96 hrs, Secured by Design approved, and BBA certified \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp class=\"btw\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDid you know?\u003c\/strong\u003e Roughly 4,000 children are injured each year from falls out of windows.
