SECURITY SCREENS
As you shop around for new doors and windows, you may come across the term “security screens.” These
refer to stainless steel mesh screens that are installed over doors and windows for three reasons:
• To strengthen the door or window and prevent intruders from breaking through and accessing the home
through the door or window.
• To prevent bugs and insects from crawling or flying into the house when the doors or windows are open.
• To allow fresh air into the home at night without compromising on security.
Security screens are an essential security feature to consider when investing in doors and windows. They are
quite sturdy due to the stainless steel construction, and this means that one cannot cut through them easily.
Also, they allow air and light into the home. They are not intrusive like steel bars and will not adversely
affect the aesthetics of your home.
Security screens should be made-to-measure so that they can perfectly fit your home. Talk to an expert about
taking measurements of your doors and windows so that you can get custom-made security screens for the
exterior doors and windows.
