on our range can be found on our Product pages.
6. What are the differences in the mesh?
While Fibreglass mesh is the standard for flywire screens
and doors, we also offer heavier meshes for security doors.
Stainless Steel mesh is stronger than fibreglass mesh,
while still being thin enough for good light and air flow. It's use is mandated
in rural areas or areas at risk of bushfires.
Supermesh is a galvanised iron product that is thick heavy
and great for security.
DVA is also known as 1-way mesh:
you can see out but not in. This is a great product for entrance doors as
it provides security while allowing light and air to circulate.
Perforated mesh is a steel product much heavier than Supermesh
with circular holes punched throughout. It is a good choice for areas that
require privacy and security.
7.
I live in a rural area, why do I need Stainless Steel?
If you live in a bushfire prone area Stainless Steel mesh is a much safer
option than fibreglass mesh. Unlike fibreglass, Stainless Steel mesh is
fire resistant and strong, meaning that embers are less likely to be blown
into your home through a broken window or door. As it is also a more complex
product to work with, all Stainless Steel mesh products are made in our
factory and installed at a later date.
8. When is the best time to get work done?
Winter. Why? Because the busiest time of year for us is late Spring and
Summer, as no-one thinks about flyscreens until the flies have come out
again! However, with so many people looking for installers at the same time
this causes a huge backlog of clients and jobs at the start of the summer
months across the industry, with some customers waiting as long as up to
2 months for an Installer to become available.
We therefore recommend that you plan to replace screens and doors in Winter
as this is traditionally the slower portion of the year, meaning you can
pick a date that suits you and not because it’s the only appointment
you can get.
