Security Meets Sunshine with Window Security Screens


This Queensland evolves around enjoying the outdoors. A sun-soaked day, a balmy evening, and a gentle sea breeze through the palm trees shouting to you - it is a style of life that many can only dream of. Nevertheless, if you ask Queenslanders, they will remind you that there is also an upside to this paradise. With the unforgiving sun beating down on your house, it is likely to turn it into an oven and keeping it cool enough to still have a chance of using that natural light from the outside can be an ongoing challenge. Here, the importance of getting that perfect combination of security and sunshine with high quality window security screens and airflow rises.

The Queensland sun - a blessing and a challenge

There is a reason why people crave the sun, and it can prove to be even more than good for the soul. Besides our aesthetic enjoyment, it helps us get rid of seasonal moodiness, manufacture the sunshine vitamin and maintain open space in our homes. Queensland also provides one of the most suitable web photos for photographers with its natural light! And too much sun in the summer months does not add up to a joyful blessing; it turns into an intense strain.

Our beloved state burns down by receiving the highest UV rays among most countries of the world. Put another way, you are heating the inside of your house, thereby making it uncomfortable for you and ultimately paying a fortune for electric bills. Solar radiation won't also guard your skin from sunburns every time you skip by a window!

Balancing security with sunshine

So, what's a Queenslander to do? Being enclosed in a room with no windows or fresh air is as far from the solution. Luckily, technology has made significant progress, and security window screens provide an exceptional way to gain the privilege of having both a well-protected home and feeling warmth and freshness.

These fresh visual displays act as a physical bulwark against the unwelcome intrusions of unwanted visitors, thus ensuring your house and family are safe. This is not the case, though, because nowadays the security screens have climate change-sensitive designs and not the bars that were the predecessors in the past.

Screen options for Queensland homes

The key lies in the mesh itself. Haul in the past days of oversized sunscreens that hid the clear vision on the road. Today's security screens use a variety of mesh options, each with its advantages: 

  • Perforated mesh: This is one of the most common options for Queensland houses. This is because of their durability and visual appeal. They come in different designs to suit most award-winning house designs. Small holes across the entire area would still be allowing for stand-out air circulation, viewability, and security.
  • Stainless steel mesh: This is a long-lasting thing that would be perfect in the places, that get the weather, such as hail, that destroys everything. With its very good air passability, stainless lathing on the other hand could be cloudy, somewhat.
  • Aluminium mesh: On the other hand, it's a low-priced material that also ensures security and ventilation. While mesh made of aluminium may corrode and rust faster in areas close to the sea, it proves to be more favoured by most construction professionals.


Beyond the mesh itself, some screens offer additional features that contribute to a comfortable environment:

  • Powder coating: The range is comprised of many colours for matching your screen with your home's looks. Painting the wall with lighter colours likewise takes part in the process of sun reflection, making your home less hot. 


Finding the right balance for you

In the world of abundance, you are faced with the task of selecting the ideal window security screens for your Queensland reconnaissance and you may feel overwhelmed. 

Here are a few factors to consider:

Mesh openness: This is about the percentage of the cell that is conducting as compared to the percentage that represents the unit cell or structure. Installing higher windshields will open the cabin to better airflow and visibility, giving you a greater view of the road, but they stand as more vulnerable from the security point of view without any additional safety features.

Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC): Such data indicates if there is how much sunlight heat is generated. The downfall of a screen with lower SHGC is that it will be less marvellous in blocking the heat gain.

Recall, and rule out any single model. The screen that will qualify to be the best for you will mostly be determined by what you are planning to do with your senses. If you are undecided about the installation of a screen for more security, do not hesitate to get in touch with reliable security screen experts. They will be able to determine the specifications of the doors and windows within the house; explain the concerns that you have; and recommend to you the type of screen that will provide the correct balance between security, sunshine and the unique aspects of Queensland region.

Being a Queenslander is a wonderful outcome because of the sunshine but it also suggests that we take ways to control it. With the right window security screens, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: an absolute airtight haven, but full of elegance, serenity, and us – the way the people in Queensland would love to feel all the time!
