Frequently asked questions about LockLatch
How does LockLatch improve airflow without reducing home security?
It allows windows or doors to stay partially open while locked. Fresh air circulates, and the opening remains restricted for peace of mind.
Can it help prevent baboon or monkey intrusions?
Yes. The restricted opening helps deter wildlife from entering while still letting air move. This is helpful in coastal and forest-edge areas.
Is it useful for holiday or rental properties?
Yes. Owners can ventilate unoccupied homes to reduce heat and moisture build-up while keeping access restricted.
Can LockLatch be used with screens or safety bars?
Yes. It installs alongside security screens and
safety bars to create a layered system tailored to your needs.
Does it fit different window and door types?
The adjustable design suits most aluminium, timber and uPVC frames for residential and commercial spaces.
How LockLatch works for families and pets
LockLatch is a practical mechanical fitting that brings safety and ventilation together in one movement. It connects to almost any window or door frame and creates a narrow, lockable gap that lets fresh air circulate while keeping the opening secure. The mechanism is adjustable, allowing you to set the ideal width for airflow and safety.
For families, this design offers peace of mind. Children can play near open doors or windows without the risk of falling or squeezing through, and pets can enjoy a cool breeze without escaping. The sturdy stainless-steel construction resists tampering and coastal corrosion, so it performs year-round in all conditions. With smooth edges and a compact profile, LockLatch fits neatly with existing window and door hardware.
When paired with security screens and
safety bars, LockLatch becomes part of a layered home protection system designed by
Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings. It keeps interiors safe, bright and well ventilated, a smart choice for coastal living and everyday family comfort.
