window guard
Child safety grate
A window guard is a protective barrier, typically of metal bars or mesh, installed over a window to prevent falls—especially by young children in high-rise apartments.
Building codes in some cities require them in residences with small children.
The landlord installed window guards after the baby started walking.
Window guards also deter break-ins, though security bars are the more common term for that purpose.
