Installation Guide

How to Install Clear Guard

Clear Guard is designed for straightforward DIY installation using basic tools. Follow the steps below to install your transparent window security system securely and achieve a clean, professional finish.

Tools Required

  • 🛠️ Battery drill
  • 🔩 5mm drill bit
  • 🔧 Hand or battery riveter
  • 🪛 Suitable screws for timber, masonry, or concrete installations
  • 📏 Measuring tape
  • 🖊️ Marker or pencil

Step 1: Prepare the Installation Area

Check that your opening matches the supplied Clear Guard dimensions and ensure the installation surface is clean and free from obstructions.

Gather all components and tools before starting.

Step 2: Install the First Side Frame

  • Position the side frame against the opening.
  • Ensure the larger access holes face inward.
  • The smaller fixing holes should sit against the wall or frame.
  • Secure the frame using appropriate screws.
  • Make sure rivet locations remain accessible.

Step 3: Install the Opposite Side Frame

Position the second side frame parallel to the first.

Check alignment carefully before securing the frame permanently.

The two side frames should be level and evenly spaced.

Step 4: Install the Centre Support (If Required)

For wider openings, install the centre support bracket supplied with the kit.

  • Position the support between the two side frames.
  • Secure both the top and bottom fixing points.
  • Confirm the support is straight before tightening.

Step 5: Install the Polycarbonate Slats

  • Remove the protective film from the ends of each slat.
  • Slide the slat into one side frame.
  • Insert and secure it into the opposite frame.
  • Repeat until all slats are installed.
  • Remove the remaining protective film once installation is complete.

Take care when handling the slats to avoid scratching the surface before installation is finished.

Step 6: Complete the Installation

  • Install the supplied fixing caps.
  • Cover any exposed screw holes.
  • Clean the Clear Guard surface.
  • Remove dust and static build-up for maximum clarity.

Why Some Homeowners Choose Clear Guard

Traditional window bars create a strong visible deterrent, but they may not suit every home or personal preference.
Some homeowners prefer a cleaner appearance that maintains visibility, natural light, and the overall feel of their living spaces.
Clear Guard provides an alternative approach.
Using strong polycarbonate slats within an aluminium frame, Clear Guard helps strengthen vulnerable windows while keeping views open and maintaining a lighter, less intrusive appearance.
It is commonly chosen for:

  • Modern homes
  • Living rooms and street-facing windows
  • Areas where preserving natural light matters
  • Homeowners wanting protection with a more subtle appearance
  • Properties where traditional bars may feel visually heavy

Clear Guard offers practical window protection without creating the enclosed appearance that some people associate with traditional security bars.
