Segal S 4764 Fixed Window Guard – Adjustable Child Safety Window Guard Prevents Accidental Falls, Tamper Resistant Screws Included, Non-Egress, White, 23-1/2 to 38 In. W x 21-1/4 In. H (Single Pack)

Used it on my back door, screen door. Everyone kept using their butt to hold open door and pushed screen in. This adjusted to the screen opening and works great. Well made, heavy duty.

Amazing 😻

This thing was a little hard to install, but I blame that more on our weird, annoying window than the product itself. Our 2nd story bedroom has a window that is for some reason very close to the ground. It opens outward on a vertical axis using a hand crank, and has a lock that flips up and down like a light switch. So the challenge was to figure out how to install the guard in such a way that the hand crank and window lock can still operate unimpeded by the guard bars, without leaving a big gap underneath the bars, which would negate the entire purpose. It took a couple tries and the bar spacing made it tricky, but we eventually figured out a setup that, while perhaps not the ideal configuration, is the only one that works for our weird window. And all that really matters is if it does the job of improving safety for our toddler, which it does.As other commenters have suggested, we used our own screws instead of the provided “permanent” ones so that it can be uninstalled someday. It’s still very secure.Overall I’m happy with this purchase. The peace of mind it brings is well worth any frustration during installation.

Easy to install

My house is set up in such a way that all of the windows are easily visible to both of my neighbors and to passers-by on the street, so that anyone who tries breaking into my home when I'm not around will be readily seen. All, that is, except for one particular bedroom window I have near the back of the house, which is blocked from neighbor/street view by a storage shed, and is at ground level (one-story home). I saw this as a glaring weak point in my home's security, and this window guard was EXACTLY what I needed to fix it.I had this thing in place and mounted in less than 10 minutes total. The screws that are included with this are one-way screws of questionable strength and quality, and I didn't want to chance running one halfway in and then having it get stuck or snap off and having no way to back it out, so I used my own. Just stuck the assembly up in place, pre-drilled holes in the window frame, and then ran some heavy-duty 3-inch screws into the studs (Camo brand screws, which are VERY strong and use Torx bit heads). DONE!This guard is VERY secure and will certainly deter most any smash-and-grab punk that tries to target my home for stealing stuff to sell for drug money. No home security is theft-proof, but as of right now, the only way someone is getting into my place easily is if they decide to tunnel underneath and cut a hole in the floor to get inside, or they just use a chainsaw to cut a hole in the back wall. LOL

I bought two of these to place in my Tuff Shed in the backyard. I put them in there because I keep a lot of power tools in there and felt like this would be a nice deterrent to smash-and-grab. They were very easy to install and a great price with an open box deal. Bottom line is that if somebody wants in, they will get in. But at this price and the ease of installation, they add a layer of protection. These would be nice for any window you are looking to prevent easy access too, but I wouldn't put them on a window in a room where the window was the only means of escape.

First of all the quality of the screws are bad, they wear off very fast.Secondly the engineering behind it was not very well. The middle screw on the left is almost impossible to put in, there is no space to do that.The product os steardy and slides well to be adjusted. The instructions is not well but there is not too much need for it since installation is pretty straightforward.

Product is strong and will do the job. Only gave it 2-Stars because:1) I bought this in white to match the white trim on the inside of the window/wall. Within a week of use it has started to rust.2) It is hard to tell from the pictures but as you adjust the width wider there is then larger openings because the vertical bars are fixed. So, one side of the guard has much larger openings.Opinion/Suggestion: if you care more about the looks from the inside get whatever color you prefer or that matches your house. But if you want them to be less visible to people looking at your house from the outside I suggest getting the guard in black. The black color will get lost in the black of the screen I think whereas my white guard stands out from down the street.
