### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little locks
*by Y***L on 11 June 2025*

Bought these to fit to upstairs windows to a rental property. Fairly easy to fit, some of them needed some packing to ensure they were the correct height so the lock actually catches - this could depend on the type of windows too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Childproofing Made Tricky But Worthwhile
*by J***C on 15 October 2023*

Child safety is a top priority for my family, and when I stumbled upon the UPVC Window Restrictor Hook, I knew it was time for a comprehensive review. It's one of those products that comes with a challenge but rewards you with peace of mind. Tricky Installation (3/5): Let's start with the not-so-great part - the installation. Fitting this restrictor hook to the underside of a window is like a high-stakes game of "Don't Drop the Screwdriver." You need the dexterity of a surgeon and the patience of a saint. One false move, and you might find your screwdriver or the catch itself making an unexpected descent to the garden below. But hey, it's a minor inconvenience for what's to come. Effortless Functionality (5/5): Once you conquer the tricky installation, you're in for a treat. The UPVC Window Restrictor Hook is like a ninja guardian for your child's safety. It effortlessly works its magic, allowing your window to open only a few inches - enough for ventilation but not enough for a toddler escape artist to stage a breakout. The mechanism is simple and reliable, and it's a true game-changer for peace of mind. Guardian Angel for Parents (5/5): The peace of mind it provides is priceless. Knowing that our 4-year-old can't venture too far out of his window is a game-changer. It's like having a guardian angel for parents, giving us the freedom to let our child have a bit of independence while staying safe. Final Thoughts: In conclusion, the UPVC Window Restrictor Hook might give you a headache during installation, but once it's in place, it's pure genius. The peace of mind it offers in keeping our child safe in his room is worth every fumbled screwdriver drop. It's a must-have for any parent looking to strike the right balance between exploration and safety. A tricky start with a smooth finish - it's an investment in your child's well-being that no parent should skip.
