Hotel window restrictors, locks and window repairs

Every opening window in a guest room needs to be safe and secure. We fit and repair restrictors, locking handles and window hardware across whole buildings, and leave you a schedule of what was checked and what was done.

What we fit and repair

  • Window restrictors, including tamper-resistant cable and lockable types
  • Replacement of broken, loose or missing restrictors
  • Locking window handles and window locks
  • Repairs to handles, hinges and locking mechanisms so windows close and lock properly
  • Keyed-alike window locks, so staff carry one key

Restrictors on upper floors

On upper floors, restrictors limit how far a window opens, typically to around 100mm, to reduce the risk of falls. They need to be robust and hard to override without a key or tool. We fit restrictors suited to the window type and test each one.

Whole-building inspections

  • Every guest room window checked for restrictors, handles and locking
  • A room-by-room schedule of defects and priorities
  • Repairs carried out on the spot where parts allow, or on a planned follow-up

Questions we are often asked

Can you inspect all the windows in the hotel?

Yes. We go room by room, record the condition of every restrictor, handle and lock, and give you a schedule and a quote for any work.

Can you repair the window itself, not just the restrictor?

Yes. We repair handles, hinges and locking mechanisms, and our parent company Essex Door & Window Repairs handles glazing and larger window repairs on the same programme.
