Hi Jimmy,where did you find the info re “you can still have windows that open all the way, provided there is a child proof limiter installed”.
Page 11 of the Fair Trading discussion document says this:
Safety devices designed to be locked and unlocked so that the window can be secured in more than one position must:
• be capable of restricting the window opening to 125mm;
• be strong enough to withstand the pressure exerted by a child; and
• have security or design features to prevent a child from unlocking it.
That clearly refers to a device that can lock a window at 125mm but is capable of being unlocked and opened wider (but not by a small child).
