Fire Escape Gate Required?
Is there any requirement that a landlord put a fire escape gate on the window that has the fire escape? The gate would be fire department approved, but I’m asking if the landlord is obligated to purchase and install it in the apartment.

no, and that seems pretty obvious since most windows do not have them.
No. Here’s a link to what safety measures are required.
