CELEBRATING RECORD SALES IN MILESTONE YEAR
Pioneering safety company, Jackloc,
has celebrated its 10th anniversary with
record sales.
The British family-run firm launched the
Jackloc, the original universal cable window
restrictor, in 2003.
It has since gone from strength to strength,
selling more than half a million of its unique,
award-winning locks all over the world,
from Russia to Australia, Mexico to Arabia.
The Jackloc is a simple but exceedingly
strong window and door restrictor, aimed
at reducing the risk of falls from open
windows.
A new ‘push-and-turn’ variation was
recently unveiled, which can be secured
without the need for a key.
The Jackloc was originally designed by
technical building consultant, Derek Horne,
after he heard a young child hanging out
of a hotel window, screaming for help.
The incident prompted him to invent the
metal cable restrictor and name it after his
grandson Jack. Derek’s daughters Emma
Wells and the late Deborah Jennings took
“The price of safety cannot be measured”
up their father’s idea and turned Jackloc into
a global success story, on course for record
sales this year. The Leicestershire-based
company is now run by Emma and her sister
Judith Burrows.
As well as building up the business to
become a leader in its field, the family are
passionate safety campaigners, crusading
to save lives by raising awareness of the
dangers of unrestricted windows and
restricted windows.
According to the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA), around
4,000 children (aged 0-15) are injured, some
fatally, falling from wind ???[?HR?XX??YX\????[[XK\?X????X?????[Y]?\?[????\??X?????[?H??\[??B??[?[???????H??[?????[?????????[?????H?ZY]\??[?\?[?[???[?[??[?\?X?HY[??X??\?HR??&\????[???[X?\??[Y[?XB??Y??\?\???\?H[??]?\????[????H?[???[??????']\??\?Z\??[???]?H]?\?[??YX?B?[??\?Y\??]?]?[????\??X???]?[???H[??X\?H??[?Y?[?\??\??\???H???\?Y[\?H\?????[?H?[?????]?Y?X????\]Y[??\?8?'H?H?ZY???X?????\?H?]Y[??\?H?Y\???][????????Y[?X???[[?][?Y?\?\?B??]?[??[?[?\?H??K[??Y[?H?]??[[???[????]?[??H???\?X????HR??X\?[H?]Y?[?H\H??[?????[YK??]???H?X?????????H???X?[??H?[???????]???[YH?]HY][??X?K?X??\??X??]??[?[???L?K???[??][?H]BBB?????X??????H??[M
