I HAVE A QUERY FOR EVERYONE
""Jeanette"" wrote in message
... Hi I have a window in a corner of the house which needs a security screen. The window is lap and sash. The flyscreen has a wooden frame that is hold on by slip around stoppers evenly spaced. One on each corner and in the middle. The afternoon sun shines nicely in the bathroom.So the sunlight is very valuable. How can one make it secure working from home??? Kind Regards Jeanette/Jeannie If you mean secure against burglary, you'll need to put bars on the window, either inside or out. They don't have to be ugly. Find a local metal shop that can make you some sort of wrought iron thing. Ask them how to paint it correctly. |

if you have a security system you can have the screen made into a security
screen that will work with your system so that if someone opens or ciuts the screen the alarm will activate. ""Jeanette"" wrote in message ...

What are you trying to secure it against, and for how long? Do you want to be able to exit through that window in an emergency? Do you want to be able to open the glass to let a breeze in? You could seal the entire window up with re-enforced concrete block, and it would still take a determined intruder with a sledgehammer a mere 8 minutes or so to get through it. The cheapest, least intrusive solution would probably be an audible alarm on the window screen. |

If you need a security screen (the ones that have micro-wire woven and a magnetic contact) call your alarm company. |
