Pesky window bars


I just moved to a ground floor apartment with bars on the windows–except for a large rectangular portion at waist-level where the air conditioning unit sticks out. I’ve asked a few locksmiths and they’ve quoted me $400-500 to weld additional bars over and around the A/C unit.

Does anyone know of a decent locksmith who would do this for less? Or are there more creative ways of solving this peace-of-mind/security issue? I would love some new ideas!
