Alarm protection and visual deterrent

Strong, epoxy-based adhesive mount

Barrier bars safeguard hard-to-protect windows. Basement

windows, jalousies, air-conditioning ducts or attic vents…

preventing unauthorized entry into these kinds of perimeter

openings has always been a tough challenge. Not for our Barrier

Bars – they’re made for securing hard-to-protect perimeter

openings. The unique design of Barrier Bars protects a building in

two ways. First, their sturdy appearance deters unauthorized entry.

Second, any attempt to remove the bar triggers an alarm. This

combination of visual deterrent and alarm system effectively

discourages would-be intruders from unauthorized access to a

building anytime, day or night.

Barrier Bars Install Fast.

The springloaded assembly snaps quickly into place with no
screws or drilling. And, Barrier Bars can be either surface or
frame-mounted. The self-adhesive, epoxy-based switch
adheres to brick or cement surfaces, forming a strong,
permanent bond. Barrier Bars fit windows or other perimeter
openings from 12 inches to over 40 inches wide. Once
installed, they do not restrict window access: you can
partially open the window for ventilation without loss of
protection. Or you may quickly remove the bars if needed.

Barrier Bars Give You a Choice.

The BB-1GS Pressure-Sensitive Barrier Bar, the BB-2
Mercury Switch Barrier Bar, and the BB-2XL Mercury Switch
Barrier Bar (metal with vertical cross bars for larger
perimeter openings.)

Barrier Bars are Made to Last.

Solid, durable construction ensures that our Barrier Bars will
safeguard your building indefinitely. Quality components
comprise each Barrier Bar – from the gold contact
snap-action switch to the stainless steel spring, to the
armored cable and tough PVC telescope tube assembly –
each component is made to exacting specifications for
lasting perimeter protection.

Our patented Barrier Bars are the no-hassle, cost effective
perimeter protection device you install in a minute.
