I took photos of the windows in the house. There are also locks present here. The windows are 23 years old. They are located on the ground floor.

The question is whether these locks are sufficient when the window is closed or if it would be worthwhile to retrofit such mushroom-head locks.

The windows still appear to be in good condition. Retrofitting mushroom head locks is a manageable effort with significant benefits and is highly recommended on the ground floor (as well as in the basement, and on the upper floor for windows above garages or canopies).

Regarding [Einburchshemmung]: Without mushroom caps, a burglar does not need 10 seconds to pry open such a window.

And as always: Whoever wants to come in, can come in.
