Answer
Carolyn suggests several ways to burglar‑proof windows without adding bars:
- Install good-quality window locks (pin locks, key locks, sash jammers) so windows can’t be forced open easily.
- Add window security film so glass won’t shatter even after multiple hits.
- Upgrade to laminated glass if budget allows; it is far tougher than standard glass.
- Use window alarms as cheap but effective deterrents.
- Install motion sensor lights around first-floor windows.
- Plant thorny bushes under windows, kept trimmed so they don’t become hiding spots.
Would you like help choosing which of these makes the most sense for your home and budget?
