Sliding security doors are the perfect option for those wanting to add extra protection to their home or business. They are typically installed to the exterior brickwork of a backyard sliding glass door. They are available in a range of styles, colours and mesh materials to suit your home or business.
With more than 150,000 offences against property each year in Western Australia (on average over the last 5 years), they have become commonplace in WA homes. Can you afford not to have one?
Factors to Consider
A security screen will typically accompany a backyard sliding security door on your front and/or side door/s.
You should initially consider the style and colour scheme of the exterior of your home and make sure that you select a product to complement these items.
More importantly, you’ll want to select modern security screen doors that offer sufficient protection. After all, this is your primary reason for adding them to your home or business.
Finally, selecting the right supplier and installer for your requirements is important. They should offer a free measure and quote, a current police license and comprehensive insurance.
Focus on local companies that can supply and install the screens and boast an excellent online reputation. Aim to secure at least 3 quotes so you have a good idea of what products are on offer and a fair and reasonable price.
Frequently Asked Questions for Sliding Security Doors
How Much do they Cost?
The cost of a screen door will depend on several factors, including –
Type of Mesh
316 stainless steel is the premium option in Australia, offering superior strength and durability. Perforated aluminium is another more affordable option, which still passes Australian standards. It’s important to remember that different types of mesh will also offer varying levels of privacy, airflow and visibility.
Type of Lock
Premium quality locks will obviously also incur more expense. This is often an item that customers fail to consider when selecting a screen, yet it is typically the first thing an intruder will attempt to break.
Size of Screen
Larger doors obviously require more materials and are proportionally more expensive.
Additional Features
Pet doors can be included, which incur an additional cost. Other features can include self-closers, privacy mesh, pet mesh and more.
How Strong Are the Sliding Security Screens?
Within Australia, all sliding security doors should, as a minimum, meet Australian standards. The standards include a vigorous series of tests to analyse the strength of the mesh, frame and locks.
What is the Most Popular Brand in Australia?
Invisi-Gard security doors have a tried and tested reputation in Australia as high-quality screens that significantly exceed Australian standards while not breaking the bank. Their premium offering Invisi-Max is the “big daddy”, which offers protection from cyclonic winds up to 356km/h.
