Clear Burglar Bars That Protect Without Compromising Your View
Sequ-Door’s Clear Poly Carb Bars offer discreet window protection using 6mm polycarbonate bars – virtually invisible from a distance and ideal for estate or complex living where aesthetics matter as much as security.
Transparent Burglar Bars for a Clear View and a Secure Home
For homeowners who want window protection without the visual presence of traditional steel bars, Sequ-Door’s Clear Poly Carb Bars offer an elegant alternative. Crafted from 6mm polycarbonate bars – cut to size and fitted precisely to your window – these clear burglar bars allow natural light to flow freely into your home whilst providing a meaningful deterrent against unauthorised entry through your window openings.
Often described as see through burglar bars or invisible burglar bars, the polycarbonate construction blends seamlessly into almost any architectural design, making them a popular choice for complex and estate living where body corporates may restrict the appearance of traditional burglar bars. Please note: clear polycarbonate bars are a versatile and visually unobtrusive solution that can be an excellent fit for many applications, particularly where maintaining light and visibility is important. While they differ from our steel alternatives in terms of security level, they remain a popular and effective option for the right setting

Where This Product Works Best
Clear Poly Carb Bars are best suited to lower-risk settings where aesthetics are a priority and traditional steel burglar bars are either impractical or undesirable. They offer a discreet level of window protection that suits the look and feel of estate and complex living.
Estate and Complex Living
- Ideal for homes within complexes or gated estates where a near-invisible solution is preferred or body corporate guidelines restrict traditional bar appearances
- Polycarbonate bars blend into the window frame, keeping your home looking open and modern
- A practical choice for lower-risk environments where the deterrent value of see through burglar bars is sufficient
- Lighter visual footprint compared to steel alternatives – particularly suited to street-facing or garden-facing windows
Residential Applications
- Great for windows in rooms where natural light and unobstructed views are a priority – such as living rooms, studies, or entertainment areas
- Suitable for homeowners wanting an additional layer of protection on windows already within a secure estate or complex perimeter
- Works well alongside other Sequ-Door security products for a layered approach – combine with expandable security gates for higher-risk entry points
- Particularly popular for homes that want some window protection without altering the visual character of the property
FAQs
What are Clear Poly Carb Bars made from?
Each bar is made from 6mm polycarbonate – a durable, clear material that is cut to size and fitted to your window opening. The result is a near-invisible burglar bar solution (from a distance) that allows natural light and clear views whilst providing a basic layer of window protection and security.
Are polycarbonate burglar bars as strong as steel burglar bars?
No. Clear Poly Carb Bars are a lower-security option compared to our steel alternatives (Steel Flat Bars or Steel Round Bars). They are best suited to lower-risk environments such as complexes and gated estates, where the deterrent value is sufficient and a full steel bar installation is not required or not preferred.
Will my insurance cover clear polycarbonate bars?
This varies between insurance providers. We strongly recommend checking with your insurance company before installing Clear Poly Carb Bars to confirm that they are accepted under your specific policy. Sequ-Door is happy to provide product details to assist with that conversation.
Are they suitable for estate or complex living?
Yes – this is one of their primary use cases. The near-invisible appearance of transparent burglar bars makes them a practical and aesthetically appealing choice for homes within complexes or estates, where body corporate rules or aesthetic preferences make traditional steel bars unsuitable.
Can clear burglar bars be custom-sized to my window?
Yes. Each set is custom-cut to your specific window opening dimensions. Our team will measure on-site before manufacturing to ensure a precise, secure fit.
Are the bars noticeable from inside or outside the home?
Clear Poly Carb Bars are designed to be as discreet as possible. From a distance, they are virtually invisible – which is why they are often referred to as invisible or see through burglar bars. Up close they are visible, but their clear material means they do not obstruct light or views the way steel alternatives do.
Do you install Clear Poly Carb Bars professionally?
Yes. Our team handles measurement, manufacturing, and installation. We supply and install all our burglar bar products and follow up to ensure you are completely satisfied with the result.
