Safety concerns are often attached to windows since they are an easy entryway into a house for burglars. Also, damage to windows exposes your house to the external forces of nature. By investing incorrect, quality windows, you can protect your home and your family from any external threats. Let us understand what Bow Windows is, and how they are superior to other windows when it comes to safety and security, making bow window replacement popular.
Bow Windows
A curved bay window is called a bow window or compass window. These windows are specially designed to project outwards beyond the edge of the cliff for several benefits such as extended view, get greater light inside the house, combine four or more casement windows, and others. Holistically, it creates a curved appearance. Having more windows and sectional glasses enables it to provide a better, unobstructed view compared to a Bay Window. Traditionally, 18th-century British residents started adopting bow window replacement in their households.
Are Bow Windows Safer?
Unlike regular windows that open with a crank, bow windows cannot be opened from outside, when a bow window with individual casements is closed, the sash in tightly pressed against the frame. This is done to provide extra strength to the window and do away with the need for an interior lock. It cannot be pushed open from the outside. Certain designs come with an attached flush into the frame, instead of a lip. These are the safest alternative available because no manual system exists for opening the window from the outside.
There are certain tips and tricks to increase the safety measures in a bow window, to boost your security and deter any external threats from entering your household:
- Safety Glazing: Also called reinforced glazing, is a layer of protective coating on the window glass, that protects your window from shattering from impact from natural disasters, accidental hits, or attempts of burglary. Topped with laminate coating, resulting in several layer-thick glasses, safety glazing gives you an impact-resistant output. In the chance of a burglary, the glass will not break easily, resulting in the thief to flee to prevent being noticed. Even if the glass does break, it will shatter and form a spider-web pattern to remain intact, instead of falling into several pieces. A simple bow window replacement glass can help with this damage
- Extra Locks: While locks are not needed to prevent bow windows from being opened from outside, an extra set of locks is never a bad option. New age cam locks can be an excellent option
- Window Revamp: A bow window with a damaged, old, rotting frame compromises your entire window set-up. It gives an intruder the option to remove the window from the frame itself. Metal screws can help hold the frame in place and prevent deterrence. If you notice signs of age-related decay, it is instead advised to go for a bow window replacement with a new frame.
