how to mount the John Sterling 1133 Window Guard 30-bar so that screws cannot be removed by intruder

I intalled the window gaurd flush on the wall about 2 inches outside the window on each side. This makes it removing the screws from the frame very diffcult.

I added pieces if wood to the wall to mount the metal bar outside the window frame. I could not mount to frame as the frame is not flat. The wood also seems to make more secure and easier to open screen if needed.

If you want to permanently mount the Window Guard so that it cannot easily be removed by an intruder, use some one-way screws that can only be screwed in, but cannot be screwed out. These are usually available at hardware stores. I would use conventional screws first to install the Guard, then back them out and replace them with the one-way screws of the same size and length. Once they are tightened down, even you won't be able to remove them!

The mounting bracket screws into the wall and the visible part inserts into a slot in the bracket and slides down into place. No screws are visible once the bar is fully mounted so it doesn't sound like this one would be the same as what you have already tried. We have the same bar in another bathroom that has been up for four years. It came off once when our son pulled and pulled on the towel, nearly hanging onto the bar. My husband fixed it easily and it has been there since.

The mounting hardware is not welded to the rod. The brackets can be located anywhere along the rod. You just have to make sure that the curtains will cover the left/right edges of the window. The curtains cannot slide beyond the mounting hardware.

The screws on the top of the of the lock should be removed. This allows you to attach it to the gate. This is removed with the hex tool. The lock itself should be mount flush on the front of the gate hope this helps.

Ours is mounted behind a bedroom curtain which extends wider than the window width. While the long gun typically lives in the safe, if/when it's appropriate to have better access the mount is already installed and the frame is 99% invisible the rest of the time.

It has several predrilled holes int the rear backplate. I mounted mine on the right wall of the closet so that the right front closet wall restricts easy access for any pry-bar attempts on the right side of the safe (where the lock is). If you are mounting into drywall, get some of those metal corkscrew looking drywall anchors. They are self drilling and provide a pretty good hold.

There is a separate mounting plate. You attach the mounting plate to the underside of the shelf.Then you place the unit over the tabs on the mount plate and secure it with 2 threaded thumb screws from the inside of the box.When complete, you cannot remove the screws unless the box is unlocked. Hope that makes sense.

There is a lock on mount before you can remove gun. We haven't mounted it to our wall yet, but will be right next to my husbands side of the bed.

Not too bad; loosen two thumb screws down near the bottom on each side. Then lift the bar up and out of the way.

put it inside the fence, use padlocks in addition to / instead of the bolts, use security nuts & bolts (require special tools - normal hex won't fit), tack weld the nuts to the bolts (makes it tough for you to remove them too, though), add a security camera (even a decoy camera might discourage a petty thief)

Someone else commented that it takes alot to remove this and I agree. Anyone trying to take this will be spending a bit of time trying to remove it. As suggested, tamper proof nuts would seem like a good way to go. A long shank padlock would probably fit over the crossbars and rack and lock it on too.

The bars are not in my home, they were for my Dad. I put them up by myself, I believe the screw size is listed in the description on the webpage. I could guess and say 2 inches, I definitely needed a power drill. It is advised to place them only in studded walls or doorways. Sorry, I can't help much on this one. I placed one on the outside of my Fathers entry door, and the other inside the door frame at the top of the steps. They are very secure and sturdy. I'm an occupational therapist and recommend safety equipment to patients, this is one I wouldn't hesitate to use. Obviously, if I put them on for my Dad!

Attach provided bracket to ceiling (or wall) with 2 screws, and alarm mounts to bracket by rotating into mount

Use supplied screws. Relatively easy installation, easy to use once installed. Take care to align the wall and door pieces and it will work like a charm.

the 9mm on the nightstand is the true deterrent. In all honesty there is nothing that will stop an intruder. this instrument prevents the inside window from going higher than where it is place. it does nothing to the outside window. double hung window all come with a safety device that whem enabled will only allow the window approx 6 inches to go up or down. that is what will prevent an intruder.

If mounting on drywall then use drywall anchors, if in wood then you can use screws enclosed with towel bar

I have the same item. I would **GUESS**: Try a"REAL" Hardware Store. Also... I chose to not use screws and so avoid holes in the wall. Instead, I **thoroughly** cleaned the painted wall surface and applied a NameBrand double-sided, permanent adhesive, FOAM mounting tape - FIRST, to the ENTIRE (Cleaned) back of the key hanger. You must trim the foam to fit and NOT SHOW from the front. PRESS FIRMLY to the wall. I used a cloth over a softwood block and "tapped " with a hammer to firmly set the hanger. I gave it 24hrs to bond - didn't HAVE to, BUT... Then I hung up the Keys, etc. I have had no issues.
