Spanish Bars
Spanish burglar bars are cage-style bars that sit proud of the window, so you can leave it open and still be protected.

Spanish burglar bars are cage-style bars that sit proud of the window, so you can leave it open and still be protected.

With their cage-like style, the Spanish burglar bar consists of vertical solid steel bars intersecting at various points with horizontal bars. These bars are suitable for all homes and businesses and are placed on the outside of the windows.
Spanish burglar bars are made a little larger than the window opening, and the top and bottom bars are bent towards the walls to create the cage-like effect. The actual window portion then protrudes outwards and away from the window, which allows you to leave your windows open and still have protection from intruders.
Spanish burglar bars are one of several burglar proofing options we manufacture and install across Cape Town, alongside our clear view bars and the rest of the burglar bars range. Every set of Spanish burglar bars is made to measure for your openings, hot dip galvanised against the coastal air and finished in a powder coat that holds its colour in the sun.

One of the distinct advantages of Spanish burglar bars is that they need to be hacked or sawed off to break through them and that creates a noise factor which is not ideal for a burglar.
As with all our products our Spanish Bars enjoy the same 5-year guarantee covering all materials and workmanship.
Since these bars are placed on the outside they are hot-dipped galvanised (coated to an approximate thickness of 80 micron) and then put through a 5-stage chemical wash to ensure that the steel surfaces are smooth. They can then be hung as is or polyester powder coated in a colour that suits your premises. If powder coated, we again apply coating to a minimum of 80 micron to ensure longevity of the coating and that it doesn’t peel, flake or fade over time.
Tell us the openings you want covered. We measure, advise and quote your Spanish burglar bars, no obligation.
