Short Summary
We've been concerned about security in apartments and homes with patio doors and sliding windows. We designed a device that can be retrofit to ANY sliding patio door or window (vertical OR horizontal) to allow the door or window to be SECURELY locked in ANY open position, from LESS THAN ONE INCH to wide open, anywhere in between. Our PATENT PENDING lock also adds extra security when the door or window is completely closed.
One thing to keep in mind is
that while burglaries take place throughout the year, according to security
officials, most areas in the country see a significant spike in crime from
November through January during the holiday season. And since most thieves want
to be in and out of your home in six minutes or less, anything you can do to
slow them down, or deter them entirely, will work in your favor. 23% of home
burglaries take place through first floor windows and patio doors.
In most cases, burglars who
cannot gain access to a home in under two minutes will just give up and move
onto the next vulnerable target.
What We Need & What You Get
We require $25,000.00 to complete our migration from limited, to full production, with commercial packaging, to help bring our product to local retailers. Our goal is to move from small machine shop production, to a more commercial mould and die produced unit. Even if we don't reach our funding goal to advance our production model, we will be able to deliver your lock based on current production.
The Impact
Why shouldn't you feel safe in your own home and have your patio doors and windows open a little.....EVERYONE can feel secure with having their windows or patio doors open a few inches. In apartments and homes, these units can easily be installed at ANY height on patio doors, up high or down low! This is also a safety device, particularly in apartments. Every year we hear of children falling out of apartment windows. With our security device in place, your home will be safer for you AND your children!
