Roller blind locks.
Roller blind locks.
by Jan » Wed Mar 30, 2016 9:32 am
There was a query on this forum recently asking for photos of any security blind locks. There are photos below of the clip-in ones that can be bought in the DIY stores/ferreteria's (2 in a pack) which will give a better idea of what to look for if buying them.
They clip in either side of the inside of the blind, after closing them, and makes it impossible to just lift them up from the outside. Used with window locks they can be an addition to home security - Tip: Remember to unscrew the stick out lugs on the bottom of the roller blinds(see photo at bottom) and put them on the inside of the blind as this makes it more difficult to lift up the blind from the outside:
Here's how they fit in:
Here's a picture of the lugs at bottom of blind - These unscrew and can be turned round and screwed into the inside part of the blind.

PS. We were told about these blind locks and also the tip about turning round the lugs on the blind on the day we moved in by our neighbour, so hopes this can help those of you who are just moving in too.
