Maintenance:

The manufacturer recommends maintenance is carried out on Remsafe products by a licensed tradesman every twelve (12) months. In addition, it is recommended that regular checks (every three to six months) are carried out by the user of each window safety device at the time of operation. Repeated force on a Remsafe Window Locks safety device may lead to general wear and tear and cause screws to become loose.

Consideration must be given to the local environment and maintenance carried out accordingly.


1. All screws must be checked to ensure they have not loosened. Loose screws must be tightened.

2. All lock components must be checked for any signs of corrosion, cracking, or loss of function. Any locks showing signs of corrosion, cracking, or loss of function must be replaced immediately.

3. Manually pull on cable and lock body to ensure against excessive movement. Any lock showing excessive movement must be replaced immediately.

4. If a window is able to be opened greater than 125 mm at any point a licensed tradesperson should be consulted for advice on the most appropriate window restrictor device for each window.
