upvc windows - restrictors?

Hi I have a bathroom window that needs a restrictor fitted. It opes fro mteh bottom out and has no "stops" except the one on hte "handle". I would like to fit a restrictor of some kind to make sure it does not open "all the way" as I cannot reach out to close it if it blows open.

hi your window hinges have a small brass grub screw with a slot about 2 thirds up turn it clock wise and it will tighten up .

measure the hinge and u can buy hinges with restrictor built in from any good diy shop or online. or u can buy a simple device which just screws into the side.
