How can i make exterior glazed upvc windows burglar proof

Darren Duke

Hi Bryan, Unfortunately nothing is completely burglar proof, but secondary locks can be installed on to UPVC windows. Do you have locking handles? If not I would change these first and then install something called sash guard. We screw and bond these locks on to the window and they have a lever that locks across the window frame. This stops a break in happening from a burglar tripping the multi point lever action built into the window. I hope this helps, You can find me via Rated People if you need more information. Regards, Darren, Red Security Design.
