ABSTRACT:
An emergency escape device in the form of a flexible strap- or rope-like support attached to an enclosure installed on an inside building wall beneath a window is disclosed. When the device is not in use, the flexible support is housed within the enclosure, which is designed to blend aesthetically with the decor of the window and the inside building wall. When in use, the flexible support is designed to extend from the interior of the enclosure, over the windowsill, and down the outside building wall. The proximal end of the flexible support is composed of fireproof steel cable or chain of sufficient length to extend from its point of attachment within the enclosure to the outside building wall. The flexible support may be provided with gripping areas and/or an adjustable harness to facilitate descent to a lower level window or to ground level.
