I live in a fairly new 2 story house which has one room downstairs nominated as a bedroom (though not used as such)
It does not have a window lock on the window - none of the bedrooms have - which I understand is a requirement (presumabbly to ensure that in the event of a fire that the windows would not be locked) All other windows in the house do have locks.
I'm looking to renew my house insurance policy. I got a better quote than my current provider on the internet. However, one condition is "All ground floor and other accessible opening windows are fitted with window locks" Where does this leave me ? Presumably if I have a break in via my downstairs "bedroom" I'm in trouble ?
Can a lock be retro fitted ?
