10 reasons why security screens are worth the investment

Are security screens worth it? Are they an essential home investment, or are they just for show? If you’re wondering: ‘Should I buy a security screen for my home?’, here’s 10 reasons to help you decide. A quality security screen will enhance your property’s value, provide reliable protection against intruders, and help reduce insurance premiums. 

1. Increased Security

Security screens provide a robust physical barrier against break and entry points to your home. Built from strong materials, like stainless steel, aluminum and steel, they resist cutting, brute force, and tampering. Security screens deter break-ins, as they are difficult to pry open or penetrate, even with a variety of tools. They add an extra layer of protection to all points of entry.

2. Peace of Mind

Additionally, security screens offer peace of mind without compromising the aesthetic appeal of your home. My Security Door Security screens will let you maintain visibility and airflow while keeping a sturdy and lockable barrier between your home and the possible intruder.

3. Improved Ventilation Throughout the House

The ability to open doors and windows allows sunlight and a gentle breeze to flow through the house. Fresh air drastically improves internal air quality and has been proven to benefit the overall health of occupants by removing toxins and the build up of dust particles in the home. So, if you’re wondering are security screens worth it, don’t forget to consider the many other ways they benefit your family with assistance from My Security Door.

4. Security Screens with Fire Exits

Security screens ensure your family’s safety with the benefit of being able to safely escape from inside out in case of an internal fire within your home. With Crimsafe’s unique Safe-s-cape security screen with fire exit function. This is ideal and will not compromise the look and ventilation throughout your home and most of all, total protection from intruders.

5. Energy Efficiency

In very hot weather, security screens block a significant amount of heat and UV rays, but allow natural ventilation. This minimizes your reliance on cooling systems in the Australian climate. And that means lower energy consumption and utility bills. In cool weather, a security screen lets you open curtains, windows and doors to let in warm sunlight without compromising security.

6. Protection Against Insects

Security screens are constructed with a sturdy, tightly woven stainless steel mesh, which acts as an effective barrier against bugs entering the home. This means windows and doors can be kept open for ventilation without the risk of insect intrusion, ensuring a secure, comfortable and pest-free indoor environment.

7. Increase Your Property Value

By enhancing the safety, and energy efficiency of your home, security screens also increase its value. Potential buyers view security features as added benefits, and the aesthetic appeal and durability of well Australian made security screens contributes to the overall attractiveness of the property and street appeal.

8. Keep Your Pets Safe

Security screens also create a perfect barrier that prevents beloved pets from escaping through open windows or doors. The stainless steel security mesh resists scratching and tearing to ensure pets stay safe whilst still being able to enjoy the fresh air and sights and sounds from outside your home.
