Re: Special Window Protection



Robert,

Actually I made that suggested and explained to the customer that we would
have to remove the existing movable screens and replace with a fixed type
screen.  The response that I got was, "Isn't there another way?"

So I have been trying to think of another way.

Presently I am installing security screens on all 2nd floor windows.  There
is a local company that does them as well and they pick up and deliver too.

Thanks for the help.

Les
