Burglar Bars and Security Grilles by Homeguard Products

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if there is a fire?

The grilles can be fitted so they are hinged or removable and there is a keyless locking system that conforms to Fire Safety standards. If you would like a leaflet please contact us and we will post you one straight away.

Will my Insurance Company accept grilles?

Yes and if you secure your premises to the required standard, including grilles, you may be entitled to a discount on your premium.

Will grilles spoil the appearance of my home?

No. Our grilles are designed to blend in with the architecture of your home and look like part of the window. The closer they are to the window the better they look. There are no ugly frames to get in the way.

How can I clean the windows?

The grilles can be fitted so that they are hinged or removable to facilitate window cleaning.

Are grilles better than an alarm?

Grilles are a visible barrier that can be seen by any burglar at any time. He knows that to force them will take time and create noise so he will go somewhere else. An alarm is discreet and is only activated when the burglar has broken into the premises. The effectiveness of an alarm is dependent on the speed with which anyone will react. An alarm and grilles together will give you a very high degree of security.

Can I fit them myself?

They are very simple to fit requiring only a masonry drill, screwdriver, screws and plugs. With telescopic adjustable fixing arms they can be easily adapted to fit even if your measuring is not completely accurate. They can be adapted to fit wooden, metal or PVC windows, so long as you tell us beforehand.
