If you are talking about the bolt type locks on the plastic window shutters ..then you can buy them from the Chino... these plastic shutters are not meant for security  they are nothing more than sun shades...you need permanent metal window bar's fitted to all your windows and back and front doors.

Hi, are break ins still a problem on camposol and in D section particularly? I had read old posts about this, but yours is the most recent. We had planned on leaving expensive mountain bikes etc locked in the property while we are not there. Including the other normal stuff like TV and white goods etc. How much of a problem is security ongoing ?

Thanks Gill

No part of Camposol is particularly under threat from the burglary...A.B.C.D have all been hit at one time or another...on a percentage basis crime is are very low on Camposol compared to other tourist hot spots.. unemployment of 30% does not help ...on Camposol we are regarded as rich pickings .

You can buy Persiana jambs from Leroy Merlin. They prevent them from being rolled up from the outside, and although not a security item in their own right, they are another hurdle for a potential burglar who don't usually wish to create noise.

Agree wholeheartedly with Gloria, we had Greg upgrade all our locks to anti-snap ones and had them all set to the same key. Also did our windows with bolts to lock them closed. More than happy with work and price.
