What Security Doors & Screens are Best For Your Home?

August 19, 2019 by Clarks Blinds

What do you need to know about security doors and screens?

Not all security doors and screens are built the same. In fact, no security door or screen should be built the same. There are many factors that make a security door better than another. We hope this article will help you find the best security door for your home.

Let’s take a look at what you should consider:

Custom Made:

Every doorway and window space is different. That means that every security door and screen should be custom made to fit. A door off a showroom floor is not going to give your home the protection you are looking for. At Clarks, we custom build all of our doors and screens. This increases the security of the product because we ensure it fits snug. This also has the added benefit of giving you the ability to customise your security products!

Materials:

A security door or screen is only as good as the materials it is made out of. We use a range of materials, each giving their own level of security to your home. If security and aesthetics are your number one priority we will always recommend Invisi-Gard. It is our most secure option for good reason. Invisi-Gard mesh is made from 316 marine grade stainless steel mesh.  Invisi-Gard 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel Mesh gains its strength from the Ultra High Tensile wire (900 MPa) from which it is woven. It outperforms relevant Australian standards as you can see below.

Australian Standards:

Knife Shear Test: AS5039-2008

This test simulates someone attacking your door with a Stanley knife or similar sharp object.  A machine attempts to cut the mesh three times. A new blade is used for each attempt. Invis-Gard passes this test in both the warp and fill directions making it a secure option for your home.

Dynamic Impact Test: AS5039-2008

This test simulates a burglar attempting to kick through a security door. The test uses a 40 kg bag of sand which is swung 5 times. The test fails if the mesh is breached in any way. When looking to buy a screen or door you need to make sure it meets these standards. For comparison, our Invisi-Gard line outperforms these standards by 10 times.

Locks:

Adding a triple lock to your security door or screen can add to its performance. That’s why at Clarks you have the option to add a triple lock to all of our security products.

Style:

We understand that you do not want your doors and screens to detract from the look of your home or your view. We offer a range of style options to suit any home. Our mesh options are also designed to give you an unobstructed view without bars or grills. It’s much like looking through a flyscreen.

Price:

Cheaper “security doors” may look great on the bottom line but in reality, all they will be protecting your from are flies, if you’re lucky! If you want the best security doors you will pay more, however, the benefits are well worth it!

Superior Warranty:

The better the product, the better the warranty you will receive. That’s why our Invisi-Gard range comes with a 15-year warranty.

Reputation

At Clarks Blinds & Screens we have built our reputation over 25 years. This is because we provide the highest quality products with the highest quality installation. In combination with our commitment to customer service, we are the only place to go for security doors and screens.

CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) UPDATE: We are still open for business!

We would like to update you on our Blinds and screens supply and also on the protocols we have in place with our sales and installation team to ensure we are visiting your home and leaving you virus-free. We are still currently working at approximately 3 to 4-week turnarounds on our range of internal blinds, external blinds, flyscreens and security doors. We do not expect this timing to increase. Unfortunately, due to the disruption that has occurred in China our internal plantation shutter lead times have increased to approximately 10 weeks but this is now being improved due to our shutter supplier increasing their output. We will continue to monitor the situation and let you know if anything changes. If you have any questions about an order you have already ordered or are wanting to confirm then please call us directly.

 

Here’s what we will do to take care of you in your home when we come to quote, measure or install.

Please be assured that here at Clark’s Blinds & Screens we will not be booking staff to attend anyone’s home for quotes or installations if they are feeling unwell. If you have had a booking made with someone that begins to feel unwell then we will book you with another sales person or installer at your earliest convenience.

 

Thoroughly cleaning our work surfaces in your home: we are taking extra steps to ensure we leave your home as clean as we found it. We will sanitise any surface we are in contact with after we complete your measure or installation with single use anti-bacterial wipes. Please let us know if you have any aversion to us using these products in your home.  Our staff are equipped with kits to complete this process.

 

Taking advice from experts: following expert advice, we have implemented cleaning regimes, using strict hand cleaning and sanitising practices for our staff entering your home.  All staff entering homes will request to wash their hands upon arrival and also prior to leaving your home. We have also advised our staff to try to keep a minimum of 1.5m clearance from our clients as per “social distancing” recommendations. If you have any concerns please feel free to contact us via phone, email or our socials.

Stage 2 Update: In addition to the above our staff will be; wearing gloves, maitaining a minimum 1.5m social distance or more wherever possible, and will not be enetering your home if you or anyone else in your home has been overseas in the last 14 days or is not feeling well.
