To keep yourself and your Boston property safe, you should make sure all doors, including sliding glass doors, and windows have sturdy, well-installed locks. Locking devices should be designed and installed to avoid entrapment within a Boston home or building. Some facilities are regulated by the city of Boston requiring all doors that open directly to the exterior from within a dwelling unit to be equipped with tight fitting, self-closing screen doors, unless the screen slides side to side. You should install a wide-angle peephole in your door and keep entrances well lighted. Screens are required on doors in Boston from April 1st through October 31st. Screens are also required on windows on the fourth floor and lower of all Boston buildings.
