In this article we will talk about the importance of installing grates and security systems to help protect your home. The safety of your home, your possessions and especially your loved ones must be a top priority and there are many ways to ensure greater protection for your home and family.

One of the most effective ways to protect your home and family is to install fences and security systems.

Grates, as well as security systems are an extremely effective choice for so many good reasons. First of all, because they make thieves desist, thus increasing the security of your home. Second, thanks to the increased security, the insurance policies relating to theft and damage also drop significantly in price. Third positive aspect, you can sleep much more peacefully at night, without worrying about finding intruders in the house while you are sleeping.

Security grates are essential devices for protecting and creating a defense barrier for both doors and windows, especially if your home has access points on lower floors, such as the ground floor or first floor.

The grates can be easily installed on the windows and doors of your home to prevent unwanted intrusion.

The installation of grates or security grates is a procedure that is always recommended, even if the house already uses security systems, such as burglar alarms or video surveillance. Furthermore, it is considered extremely important for all those windows that overlook the gardens or courtyards positioned in the internal part of the houses, or for those doors that give access to terraces or verandas, where it has been demonstrated that burglary attempts and of intrusion are more and more frequent. Many times, in fact, we erroneously tend to think that it is enough to install an alarm system to protect your home sufficiently. In reality, based on research carried out by expert safety personnel, it has been concluded that the presence of passive protection devices, i.e. railings and safety grates, make your protective system safer and more effective.

The railings and security grates produced by our company are ideal for openings found on terraces, verandas and gardens. Furthermore, contrary to what you think, in addition to guaranteeing reliability and protection, thanks to the attention to detail, they are also very beautiful on an aesthetic level.

Based on the specifications of the window and the type of shading system, such as shutter or roller shutter, the most appropriate security grilles can be chosen. These can be hinged, sliding or retractable, and are also available for arched doors and windows.

What are grates and security bars?

The grates and security bars, as we have just said, are security systems to be inserted in the doors or windows of the house. These security systems are mainly made of wrought iron.

These grates are created and made with care and attention but also with an artistic touch, and are then chosen, before being installed, so as to harmonize with the style of the home. They can be fitted outside existing windows, even if these have already been in use for some time. It is not necessary for the window and grate or railing to be installed at the same time.

Essentially there are two types of metal safety structures: the grate, which has an opening mechanism similar to that of a normal frame and the fixed railing.

Both options offer an equivalent level of security. The choice between the two depends on the type of opening to which they will subsequently be installed. For example, a door will require the installation of a grate that can be opened, while for a seldom used window a fixed grate may be sufficient, without causing any discomfort to the inhabitants of the house.

As for the appearance, there are different models of grates and railings, in order to be adequately perfect for personal tastes and the styles of the buildings. They have in common the resistance and the fact that they do not require masonry work to be assembled and installed. All this will save you time, avoid the incessant noise of masonry work and above all you won’t get dirty everywhere.

What is the combined grille and shutter system?

The combined grille and shutter system is an innovative system that will allow you to have the safety of the grille and the utility of aluminum shutters together. In fact, these two systems are mounted in a single frame and with a single locking system. This type of system is often used in residential or commercial buildings to protect windows from unwanted intrusion and to regulate the ingress of light and air.

The combination of a grate and a shutter is an effective device that provides a double level of resistance and security against intrusion attempts.

The combined system of grille and shutter represents an innovative solution for protecting buildings from the sun and at the same time guaranteeing good ventilation. This system involves the installation of a galvanized steel grate as a supporting structure, on which the shutters are then fixed. Thanks to this configuration, numerous advantages are obtained compared to other available solutions. Usually the shutter combined with the grate can be made with 1 or 2 doors, together with a window and French door.

The shutter, which is installed outside, is a first barrier against intrusion attempts, and can also be a valid aid in keeping the rooms with the right degree of darkening during the night.

The grate, which will be installed in the innermost part, as well as guaranteeing you protection and safety, will also allow you to enjoy the sunlight inside your home during the day.

Security grates may have a bar or mesh design to prevent objects or people from passing through them.

The shutter, on the other hand, is a mobile cover made up of horizontal or vertical slats that can be opened or closed to control lighting, privacy and ventilation.

When integrating a security grille with a shutter, the grille is usually mounted to the window permanently, while the shutter is mounted above it so that it can be raised or lowered as needed. This system offers the added protection of a security grille, while still allowing you to control the amount of light and air entering the room.

In summary, the integration of a grate and a shutter in a single system represents an innovative and fascinating, and certainly an aesthetically appealing, option for ensuring solar protection and ventilation in buildings. This solution offers a series of significant advantages in terms of safety, stability, energy efficiency and environmental comfort.
