A window locking apparatus includes a proximal cross brace, a distal cross brace, a first track brace, and a second track brace. The first track brace is positioned parallel to the second track brace. The proximal cross brace is perpendicularly positioned in between the first track brace and the second track brace. The distal cross brace is perpendicularly positioned in between the first track brace and the second track brace, wherein the proximal cross brace and the distal cross brace are positioned offset of each other. The proximal cross brace is rotatably connected to the first track brace and removably mounted to the second track brace. The distal cross brace is rotatably connected to the first track brace and removably mounted to the second track brace. The removable connections of the second track brace allows the window locking apparatus to be installed or removed from a window.

A cover for covering an opening defined in a surface, the opening defined between a first edge and a second edge, and defining an opening width therebetween, shorter than a length of the opening, the cover having a cover width and configured to be supported, in use, at the first edge and the second edge of the opening when the cover width is parallel to the opening width, wherein the cover width is adjustable from a first cover width to a second cover width, and wherein the cover is configured to maintain the cover width at the second cover width, in use.

Provided is an adjustable barrier having a central hinge having a cylindrical post and an axis of rotation; a first expandable section coupled to the cylindrical post of the central hinge by at least a first connector; and a second expandable section coupled to the cylindrical post of the central hinge by at least a second connector. At least one of the first and second expandable sections is configured to articulate around the axis of rotation of the central hinge forming an articulation angle between the first and second expandable sections.

Described is a pallet including a base having a length extending between a first end and a second end opposite the first end and a width transverse to the length; and a cage removably coupled to the base.

An illustrated view of an exemplary security shield device for securing a window is presented. The security shield device is easy and efficient to install and use. Also, the security shield device is useful for allowing a user to still have full site out of the window when the security shield device is retracted. The security shield device is further useful for doors in homes and business alike.

The invention relates to a collapsible security grille. The grille comprises a multiplicity of successive bars that can be substantially stacked in a retracted state of the grille and can be substantially spaced apart with respect to each other in an extended state of the grille. At least a number of the bars comprises one or multiple parts formed from bent sheet metal. Advantageously, each of at least a number of the bars can be put together from at least a first part formed from a first blank of sheet metal and a second part formed from a second blank of sheet metal. In particular, at least the first part can be a bent profile. Additionally or alternatively, at least the second part can be a bent profile.

Provided is an adjustable barrier having a central hinge having a cylindrical post and an axis of rotation; a first expandable section coupled to the cylindrical post of the central hinge by at least a first connector; and a second expandable section coupled to the cylindrical post of the central hinge by at least a second connector. At least one of the first and second expandable sections is configured to articulate around the axis of rotation of the central hinge forming an articulation angle between the first and second expandable sections.
