Default I HAVE A QUERY FOR EVERYONE

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???

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.

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.

Huh?


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