Material manufacturers, construction and size should be noted that the bars are installed to meet its main function, namely security and beauty. Using the trellis does not mean one hundred percent safe from thieves, especially when the installation and construction of the bars is not quite accurate and robust, Grille or better known as the bars are not new to the houses in any country. When viewed from the function, the trellis must be strong because it serves as a safety attached to the window frame. But in addition to solid, trellis design plan must also think about the value of beauty. Because without the aspect of beauty, may be hard memorable bars, rough, and not in harmony with the house style.
1. Trellis design
So, how to design a house bars in order to meet the security function and beauty? Not difficult really, just watching the design, construction, and size of elements. Who does not miss is the measurement of the bars in order to function properly. Before the measure, it never hurts to plan the design before construction will be used. This course adapted to the existing window design, it’s okay to iron-iron grille designs tailored to the shutters, to avoid overlapping motives. These overlapping motifs will give the impression it was not crowded and beauty show.
Trellis design on glass shutter boxes are not as free as the leaves plain clear glass window without frames, The framework of the actual functioning shutters shutter in order to help the stronger, so do not worry if as if the framework is annoying shutter grille design.
Trellis design can be matched with shutters, if taken into consideration when designing fixed frames contained on the shutters. Thus, frames of the shutters can add value to the overall beauty. Following the trend was not hurt, but it must still consider its main function, namely security. For example, the bars are made sturdy enough in terms of construction, but the design of the motive causes cavities large enough to allow a thief broke in. This of course does not answer the main function of the presence of bars.
2. Measurement and Construction
The size of the bars should be fitted with the size of the window frame to be protected. Measurement error could be fatal, because the bars can’t be placed on the frame. And finally can’t be used. If there is doubt in the measurement, should ask the experts services or directly carried out by a maker bars. This is to anticipate at the time of measurement error. Trellis consists of several elements forming, the frame or frames, and the contents of the bars panel, which consists of bars that are designed with a specific motive to consider the security aspects and beauty.
The trellis frame functions as the main construction elements, because the reinforcing bars of the structure located on this one element. In addition, the frame also connects between the contents of the panel with window frame grille. Proper trellis construction can answer the main functions of the bars on the security of the residence. If incorrect trellis construction, the bars are also not strong enough so that the main function not be answered. Other efforts to meet the main requirements of the bars are the use of appropriate materials.
3. Frame of Iron square
Trellis made of iron with welding connection, either on the frame or on the content of trellis panel, Materials for the frame is not just any metal, but it would be better if the metal used is iron elbows. That is the contents of the grille panel are connected to one of its wings, while the other wing functions to connect the bars to the frame. Thus, the relationship between the grille and frame are on the inside of the room, not part of the frame. Iron bracket that is used can use the size 25 x 25 x 3. That is, the width of each wing 25 mm and thickness 3 mm.
Relationship between the two is using nails or bolts with bolts of sufficient length. Theft incident that is often experienced by people is due to the bars instead of nails or bolts with a fairly long, thus easily removable grille plus frame from outside the house. There is another custom which is often done, that does not use an iron frame square but plates of iron. The function of this plate except as liaison between the bars with the sill, as well as a frame of content trellis panels, in this type, the frame is not nailed or bolted on the inside of the room but quite nailed or bolted on the inside of the frame.
Another alternative is the use of iron that has a low thickness, so that the iron easily bent or even cut. Iron is more solid round with sectional compared with iron plate, especially if you consider the size of the iron used. Of course this is still noticed the beauty and harmony with the home stay; not be indiscriminate use of steel with a very large thickness, with a strong reason to. Keep in mind, the above precautions taken to protect the house from thieves using human labor and didn’t using aid drills or electric saw to open the bars.
More fatal is when using a metal plate that is not thick enough-about 1.5 mm, resulting in plate the frame. In addition untidy impression, these bars are also not strong enough. The contents of trellis panels can be made of wrought iron of the current trend, or can be used with a metal such as wrought-iron finish. Everything is fine. But when look back on its main function, the use of iron for lattice trellis panels should also be strong enough with fairly precise dimensions. Apparently, the bars are not as easy to plan envisaged. We can’t just believe in the merits of making the bars. Material manufacturers, construction, and measures need to be considered and taken into account, in order to answer the main functions of the security bars that are also beautiful.
