Second homes, ground-floor flats and houses that stand empty for weeks are what worry owners most in Spain. Good anti-squatter (okupa) protection has to make getting in through a door or window hard and slow. Crimsafe does that without turning your home into a bunker: you can still open up, let the air in and enjoy the view.
What effective anti-squatter protection needs
- A physical barrier that withstands blows, crowbars and cutting.
- Multi-point locking on the doors and windows that open.
- Covering every easy way in: ground floor, terrace doors, reachable balconies and small bathroom or storeroom windows.
Why Crimsafe
- 0.9 mm grade 304 structural stainless steel mesh (Tensile Tuff®), extremely hard to cut or pierce.
- Patented Screw-Clamp® system and three-point locking.
- Tested to the Australian Standard: up to 550 J (Standard) or 750 J (Ultimate) in a single impact.
- Made to measure, fitted inside or outside the opening.
Ideal for second homes
If your home stands empty for weeks or months, the terrace doors and windows stay protected while you’re away, and when you’re back you can open them for fresh air without losing security. More tips in how to protect your home from squatters and burglars without bars.
Where it can be fitted
On front doors, sliding patio doors, fixed, hinged and sliding windows. See why we call it invisible bars.
Is Crimsafe the same as a steel anti-squatter door?
No. A steel anti-squatter door blocks the opening completely and is usually used on empty properties. Crimsafe protects the doors and windows you use every day while letting light and air in. We advise you on what suits your property during the visit.
