Windows can accentuate the beauty of your home and flood your living space with natural light. They can help create a seamless transition between your indoor and outdoor spaces. However, they could also potentially compromise the security of your property.  

Here’s what you can do to keep your windows secure. 

Ensure Locks Are Working

Are the locks of your windows in good shape? If not, be sure to replace the compromised mechanisms. Doing so ensures your windows stay locked when closed. Sometimes, poor operation indicates windows require replacement, especially if they are old. Should this be the case, contact a professional to assess the affected unit and replace it if necessary. At Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City, we offer fully customizable windows with various accessory options, including locks. 

Get Grilles

Installing grilles can further improve the security of your house. This feature will allow windows to remain operable while keeping them secure. Grilles can also make your home’s exterior more aesthetically pleasing.

Keep Your Outdoor Spaces Well-Lit

Uninvited guests are less likely to attempt to enter your property if it is well-lit at night. Floodlights can prevent intruders from accessing your home through windows. You can also get motion-activated or smart motion lights that notify you once activated.

Invest in a Good Security System

A good security system will protect your windows and the rest of your home. It could include door and window sensors, glass break detectors, security cameras and other devices that let you know if someone is trying to intrude on your property. 

Turn to Renewal by Andersen of Rapid City for windows that can enhance your home’s beauty, energy efficiency, weather protection and security. We also install attractive French and sliding patio doors. Call us at (605) 341-7831 or fill out our online form to schedule a free consultation.
