Every responsible parent should put bars on their windows when u live high up. It’s very excepted in yerushalayim where the buildings are high every one puts bars on the windows.

I don’t remember seeing bars on any windows in Yerushalayim. The windows open outward like doors, how and where do they put the bars?
