no problem.

Hi, I was shocked too since my sliding windows and grills all have latches and require keys to open it. What he did was to push and lift up the windows (while still locked) and it is able to disengage from the latch. I asked him to try the grills too, and he did all this within 5-6 secs. I knew immediately this is a problem. The main problem is that, there is some room for movement in the windows and grills. The lock bolts the window panels together securely, and it cannot be lifted up anymore. I use rivets, and it is extremely secure.

I got the locks from Changi Complex as stated in this thread. Map There is only one hardware store there. You can't miss it. It is on the ground floor. One of the shop houses. How many locks you need varies. If your windows are the standard 3 panels, each joint of the windows, you will need 1 lock.

Sorry for digging up this old thread. But I think this is relevant. Was approached by a door-to-door sales person, and demonstrated how easily he can slide open my newly installed sliding windows and sliding window grills even though they are locked! What a horror it was to me, but he wanted $50 per lock. He was also seriously pressing for a quick sale and said must do it today kind of thing. I brushed him off, and thanks to this thread, I managed to find the locks at $4.00 per lock. Intstalled them myself. You will need some tools to install it. Such as a powered drill, and a rivet gun if you are using rivets.

Dear all, I am in need of help here. I need to touch up and paint my HDB external walls. It is quite bad condition and looks dirty. Mine is a corridor unit. It is kind of a beige colour. Any idea where I can get the colour code for it or must I colour match myself?

Thanks for the replies. Got one already at $1k.
