When Intruders Strike: How Crimsafe Stops Forced Entry

Forced entry is often fast, violent, and opportunistic. Criminals assume hinged or sliding security screen doors and windows are weak and easy to defeat. Crimsafe proves them wrong. It’s Tensile Tuff stainless steel mesh, paired with Crimsafe’s screw-clamp system, securely fastens the mesh into an aluminium frame, so burglars cannot simply kick, lever, or pry it away from your security windows or doors.

Unlike standard flyscreens, this mesh holds firm against blunt force impact, knife attack, and crowbar leverage. Standard security screens rely on plastic wedges that pop free under pressure; Crimsafe absorbs, disperses, and redistributes force so the frame and mesh work as one. Tested in both residential and commercial environments, these products exceed key safety benchmarks and provide Brisbane homeowners with strong evidence-based security.

Three common forced-entry attempts:

Crimsafe has been tested to withstand impacts greater than the standard 100 Joules specified by the Australian Standard. Crimsafe Ultimate can exceed that requirement multiple times, delivering a higher level of protection. These tested outcomes give homeowners peace of mind knowing high-risk entry points such as windows and doors are safe. Many local experts in South East Queensland recommend adding patio screens, plantation-style shutters, and window products to protect sliding, hinged, and Crimsafe safe-s-cape windows alike.

Hit It Hard: The Impact Tests Criminals Don’t Expect

The Crimsafe crimpact testing simulates real attacks, from repeated kicking to blunt impact using weighted objects. A wide range of standard security screen products fail immediately; the mesh pulls free, or the frame twists. Crimsafe retains its structure. This is due to the screw-clamp system distributing the load into the aluminium frame rather than the fastener.

Impact attenuation is measured in Joules. Australian Standard requires roughly 100 Joules; Crimsafe Regular can exceed that, while Crimsafe Ultimate pushes performance even higher for homes that need the strongest outcome. These tests demonstrate what happens when criminals hit hard with tools. While no security screen can guarantee absolute protection in every scenario, these tested numbers exceed standard expectations and help keep your family safe.

A simple comparison:

Tests are performed on security screen doors, security screen windows, shutters, patio enclosures, and customised security screen systems. Whether protecting outdoor living space or an interior room, Crimsafe products are manufactured to endure years of use and serve as a strong visual and physical deterrent.

Cyclone-Ready & Bushfire-Proven: Built for Australian Extremes

Queensland’s climate can be unpredictable. From powerful cyclone winds to scorching bushfire heat, residents need security screens tested in real outdoor environments. Crimsafe achieves excellent results in cyclone impact testing for flying debris and projectiles. This is important in coastal suburbs such as Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and Moreton Bay, where storms can generate high winds and cause damage. Crimsafe patio enclosures and outdoor security screens allow living space to stay open without leaving the home vulnerable.

Crimsafe also undergoes bushfire testing. Stainless steel mesh resists ember attack and radiant heat, supporting safer indoor environments. These results exceed minimum security standards for bushfire-prone regions in Australia. The mesh helps protect glass from heat exposure, reducing breakage risk. While no security screen can guarantee total survival in severe fire conditions, Crimsafe’s properties are designed to resist burning debris and prevent wind-borne embers from entering.

This combination of cyclone and bushfire suitability is a unique advantage for homes in Brisbane, Ipswich, and the Southern areas exposed to summer storms and seasonal fires. Long service life, strong steel material, and aluminium frame construction provide ongoing value.

In Brisbane, homes built for Australia’s wildest weather turn to Crimsafe. Purpose-built for strength, its security doors, security screens, security windows, and shutters are engineered to handle the harshest elements — from gale-force winds to searing heat. This proven range helps protect your property year after year while maintaining style and ventilation.

The Power of Screw-Clamp: Engineering Criminals Can’t Beat

The strongest feature is the screw-clamp. This engineered fastener system grips mesh with mechanical pressure; instead of simple friction, it locks directly into the frame. This creates a unified structure, preventing the mesh from being pulled or kicked loose.

Why it matters:

This stainless mesh and aluminium frame combination on Crimsafe security screens has been tested against cutting and lever tools. Knife blades cannot easily penetrate the mesh, and crowbars cannot pry the security screen from the doors, windows, or shutters because the clamps hold full edge contact. This superior installation approach makes it difficult to compromise any security screen area.

Crimsafe security screens are also designed for attractive lifestyle integration. The frames are available in wide colour ranges to suit existing architecture, interior style, or exterior views. Whether protecting patio areas, shutters, or hinged doors, customers achieve safety without compromising natural light or ventilation. Security screens are installed by licensed and authorised professionals who follow Crimsafe standards. Every security screen is custom measured, made, and fitted to ensure quality results.

In Brisbane, true home protection starts with purpose-built strength. Crimsafe’s screw-clamp innovation reinforces security screens, windows, and doors, helping them stay locked tight under pressure. Paired with expert installation and reliable service, this system blends security with everyday comfort.
