Description
Window Guards: Information for Building Owners
Owners of buildings of three or more apartments must provide and properly install approved window guards (PDF) in any apartment where a child 10 or younger resides. Tenants without children may also request window guards for any reason.
Approved window guards must be properly installed according to City Health Code specifications (PDF) in all windows, including bathroom windows and public hallway windows, but excluding windows that provide access to fire escapes. Window guards — or any other type of limiting device — must be appropriate and approved for the type of window (double hung, casement, sliding, etc.) in which they are installed. For buildings with fire escapes above the first and ground floors, but none below, one window must be left unguarded to allow for a secondary exit from the apartment.
Building owners who do not meet this requirement may be fined.
