Safe and Secure Louvre Windows from Safetyline Jalousie

Johanna O'Dea Court, Camperdown, NSW
Safety and security were the key priorities in the refurbishment of Johanna O'Dea Court, a landmark multi-storey NSW Department of Public Housing apartment block located in Camperdown, NSW.
After falling into a serious state of disrepair, the building recently underwent a complete refurbishment to upgrade the facilities to provide a safe, secure, amenable place for residents.


As a residential building, natural ventilation was a key objective for the architect. The challenge was to achieve the required ventilation without compromising safety and security.
Safetyline Jalousie louvre windows were the obvious choice to meet this challenge. They are among the only windows on the market that comply with recent changes to the National Construction Code (NCC)* without any modification or additional hardware.

They also delivered an aesthetic element to complement the existing building features.
*The National Construction Code (NCC) requires openable windows in bedrooms in residential buildings (where the floor beneath the window is more than two metres above the surface beneath) to be filed with a screen or device to restrict the window opening so that a 125mm sphere cannot pass through.
