You may not get hurricanes in your part of the world, but most people experience severe weather conditions from time to time. ![]() Spend the money and get the solution that’s truly going to get the job done. And sometimes those nasty little critters are the worst! So - again - don’t go cheap. A 10x10 weave will not keep small mosquitos out. This turns out to be the optimal density because the weave is small enough to keep the bugs out and large enough to let the light in. We make our stainless steel mesh with 12 strands in the vertical direction every inch and 12 strands in the horizontal direction every inch. 028” thick! Not surprising those companies cannot stand by their products and give you a no break-in guarantee. Some companies will try to sell you a mesh that’s only 10x10 per sq inch. The more wire you have per square inch, the stronger the mesh becomes. Similar to wire thickness, the strength of the screen depends on the density of the wire. Someday when some creepo is banging on your security screens trying to get in, you are going to thank yourself for spending the extra money to get the strongest, highest quality screens available. And when given a choice, it’s infinitely wiser to spend more money on thicker, stronger wire than to cut corners and go cheap. Our mission is to build security screens that we would actually put on our homes. It would be much cheaper if we did because we would save a bundle on material cost (since it’s less material) and shipping costs (since it weighs less.) But thinner wire isn’t as strong as thicker wire. We could use thinner wire to make our stainless steel mesh. Now we are getting technical, but this one really counts. The bottom line is: When the house is on fire and you or your loved ones absolutely, positively need to get out NOW and with LITTLE effort, our egress latch is the one you will want. Our latch not only meets ADA standards but actually exceeds the ADA requirements. It means the latch can be operated by young children and the elderly. The screen will open like a car door for quick and easy egress. All you have to do is flip the latch and push. Each of our screens has an ADA-compliant egress latch. Our security window screens do an excellent job of keeping the bad from getting in, but how does one get out in the event of a fire or some other emergency? That’s an excellent questions and one you really want to stop and assess carefully. In the security business, you get what you pay for. For this reason, we spend more for higher quality materials and higher quality craftsmanship. We prefer clients who value quality and are willing to pay for it. We know this will be a cost over time, but we look at that cost as more of an investment. ![]() If something breaks from normal use, we will fix it. You don’t want to spend $10,000 and then 2 years down the road have an obvious warranty issue, like a security door handle breaking from normal use, and then learn from the vendor that you are not covered. So be sure to get into the weeds on this one. Some warranties secretly require regular maintenance from the provider in order for the warranty coverage to be valid. The warranty may only cover certain components. Many companies will offer a lifetime warranty that is actually very limited. This is another important one that you really need to read the fine print. If someone did, we will cover your theft deductible up to $3000 and replace the security screen free of charge. No one has ever breached one of our security screens. Any company who cannot guarantee their product is already signaling that they don’t trust their own product. And we guarantee it because we engineered it do exactly that. Our screens are designed to do one thing very, very well: stop intruders. If you are going to make a product that’s supposed to stop break-ins, then you have to stand by it 100%. How can any company offer a security product that allegedly provides great protection against break-ins and refuse to guarantee it? That’s like promising something will work and then hiding when it doesn’t. But when you dig deeper, you will quickly discover there are some pretty significant differences. At first glance, they all appear to offer similar products. There are a handful of companies competing in the security screen space. ![]()
