Balcony Safety Advice
  • Keep younger children away from balconies unless you are with them
  • Keep balcony doors locked when not in use
  • To make sure children are safe, there should be a barrier at least 110 cm (43 inches) high around the edge of the balcony
  • If the gaps between the upright railings are more than 6.5 cm (2.5 inches), board them up
