ABSTRACT:
A window shield adapted for sliding windows in domestic buildings and providing weather protection, increased security, safety and noise reduction. The shield includes a sheet produced in plastics material to cover the window opening or a part thereof. The sheet includes edge strips along each transverse edge in the form of moulded portions of the plastics sheet bent in opposite directions to one another, out of the plane of the sheet. A central moulded rib is included in the sheet when extra rigidity is required. Further improvements in rigidity are provided by metal edges fixed along the edge strips. Two methods of attaching these shields are described: inserting lips of upper and lower attachments into grooves of extruded aluminium window frames, the lips being parallel to, and equally distant from, the sheet; and fastening pivoting feet to the window sill, the pivoting feature allowing attachment to sills of any slope, and fastening a rigid member to the window head.
