The right height can prevent children from accidents or falling objects, which determines that balcony railings have strict specifications. The balcony railing needs to be increased with the height of the residence according to the stability of the human body's center of gravity and psychological requirements; Although the closed balcony does not change the stability of the center of gravity and the psychological requirements of the human body, the guardrail of the closed balcony should also meet the requirements of the balcony net height.

    The common low window sill is about meters from the ground, and if you add meter guardrails or fences close to the inner wall, it will definitely meet the protective measures required by the code. If the window sill is too large, such as a bay window, etc., children often stand on the window sill to look out, and the user must also stand on the window sill to open the window, at this time, the height of the guardrail itself attached to the window sill should reach meters. The net height of the guardrail should not be less than meters, and the net height of the guardrail of medium and high-rise residential buildings should not be less than meters.

    Note: The railing should not be left empty within the height of the floor or roof.
