Crimsafe Security Screens Carina, Brisbane
If you’re comparing security screens in Carina, here’s what to look for: a genuine Crimsafe Authorised Licensee, employed (not subcontracted) installers, and a mesh system that’s been independently tested, not just marketed. Securelux is a family owned South East Queensland business and a Crimsafe Authorised Licensee, with over 40 years of combined industry experience across the team.
Break-ins remain a real concern for Brisbane homeowners. Queensland Police Service data compiled by Canstar recorded close to eight thousand unlawful entry with intent offences across Greater Brisbane in the year to February 2024, a reminder that physical security still matters alongside cameras and alarms.
Whether you’re securing a family home, a home office, or an investment property in Carina, Securelux designs, manufactures and installs Crimsafe security screens, doors and windows custom-made for Queensland conditions and Queensland budgets.

Crimsafe vs Standard Security Screens
Not all security screens are built the same way. The table below compares Crimsafe’s Screw-Clamp system against a typical off-the-shelf aluminium or fibreglass flyscreen, using figures from University of Queensland impact testing and the current Australian Standard.
Feature Crimsafe (Securelux) Standard Security Screen
Mesh material 0.9mm 304-grade structural stainless steel, up to 26.5% thicker than most other mesh on the market Thin aluminium or fibreglass mesh
Frame fixing Patented Screw-Clamp system Glued, wedged or pop-riveted
Impact resistance 550kJ (Regular) to 750kJ (Ultimate), 5.5 times the current Australian Standard Typically at or near the minimum standard
Cut resistance Passed the knife shear test, resisting a continuous cut longer than 150mm Usually cuts through with a trimming knife in seconds
Manufacturer warranty 10 years, plus 2 further conditional years Commonly 1 to 5 years, if any
Installation Company-employed, QBCC-licensed installers Varies, often subcontracted
Insect protection Blocks insects as well as intruders Flyscreen only, no security rating
Installation quality is just as decisive as the mesh system itself. A well-tested product fitted poorly is still a weak point, which is why every Securelux install is carried out by our own employed, QBCC-licensed team.

Why Physical Security Still Matters in Brisbane
Cameras and alarms alert you after someone is already on your property. Physical barriers like Crimsafe are designed to stop the entry happening in the first place. Queensland Police Service data compiled by Canstar showed close to eight thousand reported unlawful entry with intent offences across Greater Brisbane in the year to February 2024, with several inner southside and bayside postcodes among the higher-rate areas. A security screen doesn’t guarantee a break-in won’t be attempted, but it raises the time and effort needed, which is exactly what deters an opportunistic intruder.
Tested Tough: Crimsafe’s Performance
Queensland’s climate throws a lot at a home, storms, heat, humidity and the occasional attempted break-in. University of Queensland testing found Crimsafe withstands 550kJ (Regular) to 750kJ (Ultimate) of impact, 5.5 times the current Australian Standard, and the mesh has passed the knife shear test, resisting a continuous cut longer than 150mm from a trimming knife.
- ✓Stainless steel mesh that resists corrosion, with Saltwater Series gel on every clamp screw for coastal exposure
- ✓Screw-Clamp frame system, not glued or wedged, so it holds under sustained force
- ✓Doubles as insect protection, keeping bugs out without losing airflow or the view

No. The stainless steel mesh resists corrosion, and Securelux adds Saltwater Series gel to clamp screws for coastal and near-coastal Queensland homes.
What colours does Crimsafe come in?
There are 13 standard colours plus a range of woodgrain finishes, and Securelux can match another Dulux or Interpon colour on request.
Can you see through Crimsafe?
Yes. The fine mesh keeps the view and airflow while blocking intruders and insects, unlike a standard flyscreen.

Windows start from around $350 and doors from around $1,000, with the final price set by product tier, opening size, installation requirements and frame colour, confirmed at a free consultation.
Can Crimsafe be cut?
It has passed the knife shear test, resisting a continuous cut longer than 150mm from a trimming knife.
Is Crimsafe insect proof?
Yes. It keeps out insects as well as intruders, which a standard flyscreen isn’t designed to do.

Yes. Our service area runs from Caboolture and Burpengary in the north, through Brisbane and Carina, Redland Bay and Ipswich, down to Burleigh on the Gold Coast.
Is Crimsafe worth the money?
