Thanks to those who responded.
The current tenant said he already bought a window bar assembly available at Lowes. However, Its just not simple to install since it must be mounted onto cinderblock and therefore the included one-way wood screws are useless. I will be picking up concrete/block anchors on Monday and I have just ordered breakaway security nuts to install it all for him this week sometime.
The small window is nailed shut anyways but it had a rotted frame which was pulled out and is currently being repaired. The bars will defiantly deter anyone because more time would be needed and removal would require mechanical means which would draw too much attention. Its a shame that the area is getting worse, with several break-ins on the street during the last 2 weeks.(btw this is down in Hudson county)
and Steve, no I have not found nor made a flag frame yet. I get distracted too easily lol
