Σχετικά με την υπηρεσία

Window bars, also called security grilles, are one of the most effective physical deterrents for homes in Cyprus. They let you leave windows open on hot nights, protect properties left empty between holiday lets, and give ground-floor apartments and houses in Nicosia, Paphos or Aradippou a real barrier against break-ins. Fitted well, they also look like an intentional part of the facade rather than an afterthought.

Most bars are custom made. A metalworker measures each opening, fabricates the grille in their workshop, applies a protective finish and returns to fit it. On FixNow you can post your project with photos and receive offers from local professionals who design and install window bars, then choose the one that suits your home and budget.

Planning your new window bars

  • Fixed or hinged: fixed grilles are simplest, while hinged or removable designs with a lock let you open them from inside for cleaning and escape.
  • Inside or outside the window: external bars suit most homes; internal grilles can work where the facade cannot be altered.
  • Design and spacing: straight vertical bars, decorative patterns or modern flat-bar designs, spaced closely enough to stop entry.
  • Material: mild steel is strong and common; galvanised or aluminium options resist corrosion better near the coast.
  • Finish: galvanising and powder coating offer longer-lasting protection than paint alone, especially in salty or humid air.
  • Anchoring: fixings set deep into concrete or solid masonry, with tamper-resistant bolts or welded lugs.

Do not forget about escape

Bars that cannot be opened from inside can turn a bedroom into a trap in a fire. For bedrooms and any room that could be an escape route, ask for a hinged grille with a lock or quick-release mechanism that can be opened from inside without tools, and keep the key somewhere everyone in the household knows. A good metalworker will raise this with you, but it is worth putting it in your job post from the start.

What influences the price

  • Size and number of windows: more metal and more fixing points take longer.
  • Design complexity: decorative scrolls and curves need extra fabrication time.
  • Opening mechanisms: hinges, locks and release catches add components.
  • Finish: galvanising and powder coating cost more than paint but last longer.
  • Access: windows above ground level may need ladders or scaffolding handled safely by the installer.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις

How long does it take to make and fit window bars?
After measuring, fabrication and finishing usually take from several days to a few weeks, depending on the design and whether galvanising or powder coating is done off site. Fitting is fast, often under an hour per window. Each metalworker should give you an estimated timeline in their offer.
Are window bars a fire risk?
Fixed bars on every window can block an escape route. For bedrooms and main living areas, choose hinged grilles that can be unlocked or released from inside quickly, without a tool. Keep keys near the window but out of reach from outside, and make sure every member of the household knows how to open them.
Will window bars rust near the sea?
Plain painted steel can rust quickly in coastal areas such as Larnaca or Ayia Napa. Hot-dip galvanising followed by powder coating gives much better protection, and aluminium grilles avoid rust altogether, though they are less strong. Ask each professional which finish they recommend for your location and what maintenance it needs.
Do I need permission to fit window bars in an apartment?
Many apartment buildings have management rules about changes to the facade, including the colour and style of grilles. Check with your building management or committee before ordering, and share any requirements with the metalworker so the design complies. Your local authority can advise if you are unsure about wider rules.
