RETURN TO SWS SECURITY RANGE

SeceuroBar

The SeceuroBar removable window bars offer a high level of security to windows which are easily accessible and/or offering vulnerable exposure to unwanted visitors. Samson Security Shutters & Grilles highly recommends this option should your requirements fall below the minimum size for both the SeceuroGuard 1000 and SeceuroGuard 1001 retractable security grilles. With a highly technological radial locking point system combined with strong extruded aluminium retaining units, the SeceuroBar anti-cut steel bars can go from offering a significant level of security to being totally removed offering 100% unobscured vision within the turn of a key.

Tested and certified to award-winning standards, the SeceuroBar uses tough powder-coated steel bars putting your mind to ease when the security of high cost equipment or the safety young children comes into question.

Thanks to the versatility of the SeceuroBar, it can be installed both inside the window reveal or as an interior face-fixed operation with no ramifications to the security it offers. Additionally, it can also be installed in both a vertical and horizontal fashion to suit your needs.

Recommended Use

At Samson, we have a strong knowledge of our products therefore we like to offer our recommendations on potential use and application for them.

The SeceuroBar is ideal for applications for lower security domestic locations. This can include:

- Home
- Multifamily Housing Buildings e.g. Apartment Blocks, Flats
- Garage Space
- Summer House
- Garden Shed
- Workshop
- Outhouses
- Home Office Space

We also recommend the SeceuroBar for use in lower security commercial applications where the bars require removal occasionally. This can include:

- Office Space
- Convenience Stores
- Garage Space

HOW TO MEASURE
When measuring for any Seceuro product, it is imperative that all dimensions are given in millimetres to ensure the perfect fit is made. If you require a conversion from inches to millimetres, simply multiply the dimension in inches by 25.4.

PREPARATION
It is important to check during surveying that the opening is suitable for the installation of a SeceuroBar. If the reveal is constructed from solid steel or a cavity then it would be better to face fix the system around the opening.

You must check that the reveal is straight and level.
NOTE: Any deflection of the bottom retaining unit will cause the mechanism to have a loose fit and stick. Packing strips can be used to make the reveal level. If the reveal slopes inwards or outwards, or the top retaining unit is not fitted firectly above the bottom retaining unit, the socket will not lock in the mechanism. The reveal should be levelled up with packing strips and re-measured.

MEASURING
When measuring, it is important that the dimension of the width (shown as A in the picture) is given first, before the dimension of the height (shown as B) to avoid any confusion. You must ensure that tight reveal sizes (in particular the height) are given when ordering. Failure to do this could result in the bars being cut too short and the level of security being offered is compromised.

If the height of the SeceuroBar you require exceeds 1500mm, it will require two rows of spreader bars. Spreader bars are used to reduce the deflection on taller applications and ease removal of bars.

When you have measured the reveal size, continue to the prices and ordering page to view our very competitive prices.

It is worth clarifying that the SeceuroBar is an internal ONLY product and should under no circumstances be installed on the exterior of a building.

DIY Installation

With a SeceuroBar, the system is designed to join as close as possible to the frame of the window; this will prevent any unnecessary gaps for dust, dirt etc. to collect in. The top and bottom retaining units should be placed up by the window and the fixing positions marked with a pencil.

The retaining unit can then be removed to create space to drill the appropriate hole. We recommend that the minimum fitting is 10 x 2" (50mm) countersunk wood screws. It is essential that countersunk screws are used; these will allow greater clearance in the top retaining unit. It is usually necessary to create a small recess directly below the lock position and to allow the bottom fitment to seat correctly.

For wider or horizontal applications, the fixing plates can be secured within the retaining unit by using maskin tape or a small amount of silicone sealer (this will eliminate fixing plate movement). Before finally tightening the top and bottom retaining units the end caps should be moved out to the end of the opening, this will provide a neat and even finish to the system.
