3 Ways to Secure Your Home’s Windows From Burglars

The Window Source 3 Ways to Secure Your Home’s Windows From Burglars New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine

Energy Efficient Replacement Windows

Posted In Replacement Windows
Published October 1, 2017

According to the Bureau of Justice, more than three million home burglaries occur each year. Windows are most one of the common ways that burglars enter the home. Burglars often scope out windows before an invasion to figure out ways to force or pick them.

Safeguarding your windows from burglars is simple & important. Here are some tips to help you get started.

Take a Quick Survey of Your Windows

Check each window and take note of its type and the kind of lock it has. Look for windows that are cracked, broken or warped. These are not secure and are likely causing energy loss from your home, as well. If you notice these issues, then consider replacing your windows.

Choose the Right Kind of Replacement Windows

Not all windows are created equal when it comes to home security. The most secure types of windows include:

  • Casement – This type of window is considered to be one of safest because there is no way to open it from the outside. It features a single sash that opens outward. The sash is operated by a crank. There is no way that an intruder could work the crank from the outside.
  • Sliding windows – Sliding windows open horizontally. One sash slides in a pocket past the other to provide ventilation. These windows usually come with a cam lock that prevents the pane from sliding when engaged. Additionally, you can install a burglar bar between the sash and window frame for even more security.
  • Colonial Grid Windows – These windows have six or more panes of glass separated by grids.  They are more secure because of the smaller surface area of the glass.

Consider Impact-Resistant Glass

Impact resistant glass can protect your home from storm damage and provide enhanced security against burglary. If you live in a hurricane zone, it is a good investment to install this type of glass anyway.
