WINDOW OPENING CONTROL DEVICE
JELD-WEN
®
WOCD Meets ASTM F2090-10 Standard
Windows add so much to our daily lives - daylight, ventilation and views. They can also be necessary for emergency
escape and rescue, so the building codes in your area may require certain windows to fully open. This means
homeowners should take measures to prevent window falls. Factory-installed Window Opening Control Devices
(WOCD) from JELD-WEN are designed to meet the ASTM F2090-10 standard intended to help prevent accidental
falls from windows by children five years of age and younger. A WOCD automatically limits the sash opening to
less than 4 inches, unless it is deliberately disengaged, allowing the sash to fully open. The streamlined design of
the JELD-WEN
®
WOCD won’t obstruct views and preserves the beautiful appearance of your windows, unlike many
after-market window guards. Available on single-hung, double-hung, casement and sliding windows.
