    Burglar Bars - Swing Open Type

    Burglar Bars - Swing open style to allow easy access to windows for cleaning and maintenance. 10 contractors no-bid this, so I made a sample to show how simple it could be done.

    The outer frame is 1 inch flat bar stock. The inner frame is 3/4 inch. It's got 2 barrel hinges. Aluminum mosquito frame. That's about it. Lots of careful measuring and set up before stick welding it.

    I don't have the materials or artistic talent to do the scrolls or design. I'm hoping when they see how easy this is, the burglar bar contractors will pick up job!




    MATERIALS
    - Outer frame 1" flat stock
    - Inner (swinging frame) 3/4 square tube
    - 2 barrel hinges
    - Aluminum mosquito net framing

    WARNING: Welding can be dangerous. If you don't know, learn first or don't do it.
