Ideal For:
Controlling door swing to protect nearby surfaces or ensure wind resistance
Child-proofing windows while allowing airflow
Meeting safety standards in homes, schools, care facilities, and public buildings
A door restrictor stay limits how far a uPVC, French or patio door swings — typically to about 90 degrees — stopping wind slamming it into walls, furniture or the hinge stops. Adjustable friction lets the door hold position in a breeze.
Yes — restrictor stays are one of the most popular upgrades for outward-opening French doors, which catch the wind badly. Universal handed designs fit left or right doors and mount into the frame and sash face or eurogroove.
Door restrictors manage swing to protect the door and surroundings; window restrictors limit opening to around 100mm for child safety. Different jobs — this collection covers both, so check each product's stated purpose and opening limit.
Most fix with self-tapping screws: the track or arm to the frame head, the slider or pivot to the sash, following the template supplied. Allow 15–20 minutes. On uPVC, fix into the reinforced sections and avoid over-tightening into hollow profile.
That's exactly what they're for — the friction slider absorbs gusts and the end stop prevents the door reaching the wall or wrenching its hinges. If your French doors have already dropped from wind damage, adjust the hinges square before fitting the restrictor.
