Hi criso3glu
 
Do you mean the ones that look like your picture and are meant to prevent people from breaking into your home?
 
If so, then downunder (Australia) we call them security grills (security grill doors and windows) .  There are also security screen windows and doors which are slightly different but serve the same purpose.
 
Some people do call them security bars:  "I have security bars on my window ..."
 
You can see pictures here .
 
Cheers

I agree with Jayho

Oh by the way, hope you don �t mind me saying but it �s "What do you call...." (rather than "how")

Have a lovely Friday
