Fall Statistics: Why Regular Nets Are an Illusion of Safety

Statistics are stubborn and, in the case of windows, very sad. Every year in large cities, hundreds of children fall out of windows, and in most cases, there was a mosquito net on the window. Why does a device intended to protect against insects become a cause of tragedy? Let's look at the numbers and the mechanics of the process.

Scary Numbers

According to data from the Ministry of Emergency Situations and medical institutions, the peak of incidents occurs from May to September. More than 80% of fall cases occur because a child leaned on a mosquito net. The average age of victims is from 1 to 5 years. It is at this age that curiosity is at its maximum, and a sense of danger is not yet formed.

Fall Mechanics: Why Doesn't the Net Hold?

Many parents mistakenly believe that if the net fits tightly in the slots, it will hold a child. Let's do the math. The weight of a two-year-old child averages 12-14 kg. When jumping or leaning sharply on the net, the dynamic load increases 2-3 times.

Standard mosquito net mounts are plastic "ears" attached to the frame with small screws. The breaking strength of plastic is extremely low, especially after one or two winters in the sun and frost. Under a load of 20-30 kg, the plastic simply snaps, and the net flies out along with the child in a fraction of a second.

KinderSafe: Protection Confirmed by Tests

Unlike mosquito nets, KinderSafe systems undergo rigorous testing. Our net withstands a static load of up to 290 kg. This is achieved by using steel mounts that are screwed directly into the reinforced window profile.

We don't create an illusion of safety — we create a real physical barrier. Remember: a mosquito net protects against mosquitoes, while KinderSafe protects your child's life.
