I bought this item approximately 4 months ago for a bathroom window that needed a little bit of security on side if house. I am inland far from the coast in Central, Florida. Today, I just happened to walk by and noticed it is rusting badly at all the welds and joints.
Made in Ch**a?

We used the security bar on a garage door that had a window on the top half. It was a metal door so we had to use machine bolts that were secured on the back of the door with lock nut washers and a nut.....after drilling four wholes for the four brackets. The look is very nice and should work to secure the window in the door. We additionally used an Artscape film on the inside of the door to block out a view of the inside.

Rusts easily?
I have only had this for about a week. It isn't installed but has sat out on a table in the rain. After a few days rust began to appear at some of the joints. (see photo) This indicates that the powder coating didn't penetrate sufficiently. It doesn't bode well.
I will wait another week or so to decide if I want to install it or return it. I do like the design of the unit and the price is good. I may decide to clean it up and put a clear coat on top to try to protect it. But this shouldn't happen if properly coated.

Good quality and perfect fit.
Looks good. I probably needed a special tool for the screws, as that was a bit of a pain.
In general, I am happy with this product along with the brackets used to attach it.

The security window bars look good and came quickly. I installed them on the inside of my garage side door. The only problem I had was the one-way screws were too long (3”) so would not fit on the 1.5” door without going through. I could not find any one-way screws of the same diameter in 1.5” or smaller, so I used the 3” screws and cut off the pointed end with a Dremel cut-off blade. Next spring I will repaint the door and hide the screw ends.

Bars and hardware are fine, but why put black plastic tabs on white bars? It looks bad. The idea of white is to blend in. Surely the black bars have black plastic tabs to match, so why not on the white?The Home Depot warehouse sent black bars first when clearly white was indicated, so they had to be sent back. Then, they sent 3 bars the order clearly asked for 2. Is there no quality control in the warehouse? Product is good, customer accurate service is lacking.

This is the 14th window security panel I've purchased from Grisham through Home Depot. These pre-made and sized panels are a great and inexpensive security solution for the apartment bldg. I mange in Los Angeles. If you know how to use a drill, tape measure and level you can install these yourself...I did!

Worked well. I had to paint it black as white was the only color in stock. Will keep out a week burglar for a while or slow down the average thug. Easy install. More for theatrical value than real deterence from anyone with a portable sawzall.

Very nice looking, arrived well packaged, and were easy to install . However, they were VERY dirty and had some rust and scratches. I had to do a lot of touch-up painting on them.

As other reviews state , you do need to make sure to order the hardware for your specific install. The bar is well made and pretty easy to install . It looks good and blends in well with a white door. I purchased a seond one after my first install. Shipped and delivered quick .
