FAQs

How many blocks are included in a pack?

Each pack contains two Clippasafe Sliding Window and Door Blocks.

Do I need any tools to install these blocks?

No, installation is tool-free. You simply attach them by hand to the sliding runner.

What is the maximum runner width these blocks can fit?

They can fit on runners up to a maximum width of 7mm.

Can these blocks be used on all types of windows and doors?

They are designed for sliding windows and doors with suitable runners. They may not be compatible with bi-fold doors or other non-sliding mechanisms.

Are these blocks a replacement for adult supervision?

No, these blocks are a safety aid and should not replace vigilant adult supervision. Always ensure children are supervised, especially near windows and doors.

How should I clean the blocks?

Clean them with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What should I do if the block doesn't seem to be working effectively?

Ensure it is installed correctly on a clean, dry runner and that the runner's thickness is within the 7mm limit. Check for any damage to the runner or the block itself.

Troubleshooting

Block does not stay in place

Ensure the window/door runner is clean and dry. Check that the runner does not exceed the 7mm maximum thickness. If the runner is worn or damaged, the block may not grip securely.

Window/door opens too far despite block

Verify the block is positioned correctly on the runner and is obstructed by the frame when it reaches the desired closed position. Ensure the correct side of the block is against the frame.

Block seems difficult to slide

Ensure the runner is free of debris or obstructions. The block is designed to provide resistance; it should slide firmly but not require excessive force.
