Topic 31. Burglar Bars
March 28, 2019
This Chapter has been revised in its entirety.
a. Requirement
If a property has burglar bars, at least one window per bedroom must have a quick-release mechanism, unless there is an exterior door from the bedroom providing rapid egress.
b. Removal of Burglar Bars
If the appraiser is not able to confirm that quick release mechanisms are in good working order, the appraiser should prepare the appraisal subject to removal of the burglar bars as a safety consideration.
