Will I be able to retain my view?

If retaining your view is an important part of your decision making when it comes to security screens then Invisi-Gard screens are the way to go. As you can see from the photo above, there is very minor difference in the view to the pool in having the screen door closed and the door open.

FAQs » Simcraft Security Screens

Pet doors are great aren’t they? It means our pets can move freely in and out of the house, but there is one question that still remains unanswered: Can you fit a pet door to your security screen and maintain the level of security in your home?

The nuts and bolts of it

Yes, pet doors can physically be installed into an Invisi-Gard product but it is important to understand that in doing so, the Invisi-Gard door will no longer be classed as a security door.

According to the National Security Screen Association the installation of a pet door into a security screen will mean that the door is no longer compliant to Australian Standards and does not meet the AS 5039.

According to Invisi-Gard:

“Pet doors are a great idea for the comfort of your pets and the pet owner. But how secure are they? Once a pet door is installed into any security window or door, including Invisi-Gard, it can no longer be classified as a security product. This is because the opening created for your pet to pass in and out of, exceeds the maximum allowable aperture in the infill material (stainless mesh) nominated under AS1539-2008. It is now classified as a barrier door and the Invisi-Gard 15 year standard warranty still remains for the 316 stainless steel mesh.”

When considering a pet door for your home, it is important to determine the level of security you require for you home, and how a pet door may compromise that.

This all depends on how much security you’re after. If you’re simply looking to keep bugs out a flyscreen door may be all you need.

Commonly in FNQ, the standard fitting to new homes is the aluminium screens and doors with the diamond grille pattern which offers some level of security to your home, especially if fitted by an experienced installer who will fit them tight and secure them correctly.

Standard aluminium screens and doors work well for keeping out the bugs and enabling you to keep your windows and doors open for maximum air-circulation during the harsher summer months but don’t offer much in the way of security for your home.

For optimum security the Invisi-Gard products, when installed by a Licensed Dealer (like SIMCRAFT) meets all of the requirements for Security Doors and Windows as determined by Australian Standards.

Invisi-gard is an outstanding product and extensive testing has been conducted to show it is superior when it comes to security, element exposure and even energy efficiency.
