Why Window Repair Pros Love Window Bars

Why are our window bars popular among window repair professionals?

Variation explanation for installing DIY Xpanda's window bars.

Expandable Window Bars, also known simply as window bars, security window bars, or burglar bars, have been a very popular choice among homeowners and industry professionals in construction, property maintenance, security solutions, and window repairs and replacements.

Why is that?

The simple answer is "convenience".

Well, what Makes These Window Bars Convenient?

  • Size Flexibility
  • Easy Installation
  • Future Use

Let's dive in a little more.

These industry professionals are often required to provide security solutions to secure entrances or windows quickly and under a tight budget. For example, a technician may be requested to repair and replace a window of a school shed that someone broke into. The technician needs something temporary to secure this window while replacing the glass.

Because this type of project is temporary, they often do not have the budget to custom-make window bars or to keep looking for window bars that fit the specific window frame. The technician needs something convenient in terms of:

  • Size
  • Installation
  • Budget (Future Use)

This is where DIY Xpanda's Expandable Window Bars meet their demands.

In this blog, we explore the versatility and convenience of DIY Xpanda's expandable window bars, detailing their size flexibility, easy installation, and cost-effectiveness for both residential and professional use.

Doing business is a long-term marathon, and anything that can save your time and expense is your friend. Moreover, since these window bars are often purchased in bulk orders, there is a 10% discount for orders of more than five window bars.
