SheerGuard is a progressive security company specialising in the DESIGN, SUPPLY and INSTALLATION of the world’s strongest Clear Burglar Bars made in Germany from premium grade EXOLON® Polycarbonate offering protection whilst enhancing your living space with an unparalleled aesthetic ability to merge both indoor and outdoor spaces.
When you choose SheerGuard, you can be sure that you will get a product that will last as long as your home does — and one that will look good while it does it!
It is neither of those; our SheerGuard Clear Burglar Bars are manufactured from a thermoplastic polymer called EXOLON® the highest quality Polycarbonate and strongest material available today.
Eventually someone could break them with the right tools, lots of noise and repeated efforts. EXOLON® the highest quality Polycarbonate has an extremely high impact resistance and a tensile strength of over 3 tons which makes it tougher than steel! Because of its strength and shatterproof properties Polycarbonate is used in high demand applications such as bullet proof windows, police riot shields, jet-fighter cockpits etc.
There are a number of variables to consider when comparing Steel to Clear Burglar Bars – one is how they are fixed to the frame. Most Steel Burglar Bars are welded to the frames which is not strong enough as all it takes is a simple twist of the bar with a spanner and the weld will break.
SheerGuard Clear Burglar Bars are secured with stainless-steel, tamper-proof compression rivets to the frame which are much stronger and twice the weight of your standard rivet, with a domed head that can not be drilled out.
Unlike steel burglar bars, SheerGuard Clear Burglar Bars are maintenance free and do not rust when exposed to moisture and have a lifetime UV warranty against fading / cracking, if cleaning instructions are followed correctly. Use only water to clean them and not solvents or detergents.
Polycarbonate has an inherent flame retardant and is heat resistant, unlike plastic it does not ignite and drip flaming liquid, it actually extinguishes itself as it is being burnt. This is not to say that they cannot be burnt through them but if someone does try to burn through them, it would take a few minutes to get through our bars and a lot of smoke and smell is produced.
No, SheerGuard Clear Burglar Bars compare favourably to custom fitted Steel Burglar Bars and in most cases work out to be more economical.
