Maximizing Security and Style for Larger Windows. Top Solutions & Installation Tips

How to Keep Your Windows Open This Summer. Without Compromising Security

Sunshine, Fresh Air… and Worry? The breeze is warm. The house smells like citrus. The sound of birds outside makes everything feel alive. It’s summer — the season to open the windows and let life in. But here’s the problem: Open windows are one of the biggest security risks in any home. Whether it’s a ground-floor apartment or a suburban bedroom, opening your windows can invite more than just air… It can invite risk. This article is here to show you how you can enjoy the freshness of summer without leaving your home vulnerable — thanks to one simple, elegant solution from SWB.

1. The Summer Security Paradox

You want ventilation.
You want to cool the house naturally.
You want to sleep with the window cracked open.

But you also know:

  • 30% of break-ins happen through windows
  • Screens won’t stop an intruder (or a falling child or pet)
  • Open windows are easy, quiet entry points
  • Accidents happen in seconds

So, you close the window…
…and you sweat.

But you don’t have to choose between airflow and safety.

There’s a way to have both.

2. The Problem With Most Summer “Solutions”

Let’s look at what most people use when trying to keep windows open but safe:

Screen Mesh

  • Blocks bugs, not burglars
  • Pops out with one push
  • Zero real protection

Window Locks or Stops

  • Only work when window is closed
  • Offer no vertical barrier
  • Easily bypassed by force

Plastic Tension Bars

  • Weak, ugly, unreliable
  • Not designed for weather or force
  • Break under pressure

And permanent iron bars?
They block the light, airflow, and any sense of aesthetic joy.
Not exactly summer vibes.

3. SWB: The Window Bar System That Lets Summer In — and Keeps Everything Else Out

  • Let you keep your windows open
