Sleep with the window open: security screens for windows
It's 2am, the room is warm, and you're deciding whether to get up and shut the window. With a security screen, the window stays open and the screen stays locked.
Usually it's one or two windows that bother you:
✓ The ground-floor bedroom you'd like open at night
✓ The laundry or garage window you can't see from the house
✓ The window that faces the street or a shared drive
✓ The one you've kept shut since a break-in
If bugs are your only worry, fly screens for windows may be all you need.
Hinged, sliding or fixed window security screens?
We pick the type with you at the measure. Between them, the three suit casement, awning and sliding windows, in aluminium or timber joinery.
Hinged window security screens
A hinged screen swings open from inside. Choose it where you need to get at the window: to clean the glass, to work the stay, or to get out.
Sliding security screens
Security screens for sliding windows run on their own track, in line with the window behind them. They suit aluminium or timber joinery, and keep insects out while the window's open.
Fixed security screens
Some windows you open for air and never reach through, like a laundry window. A fixed screen stays put all year, so that window can sit open day and night.
Security screens for awning windows
Awning windows push outward, so people ask whether a screen still works on one. It does. A hinged screen swings open from inside, so you can reach the stay, set the window open, then lock the screen again.
Grille, Clearguard or Supascreen: the view through the mesh
Window security doesn't have to mean bars and a closed-in room. The mesh you choose decides how much of the view you keep. There are three choices of security mesh for windows:
✓ Diamond grille: the standard, a powder-coated Amplimesh aluminium grille with fibreglass insect mesh behind it, or paw-proof pet mesh for cats and dogs.
✓ Clearguard: heavy-duty perforated aluminium sheet mesh, for a clear view out with insect and security protection in one.
✓ Supascreen: rigid woven marine-grade 316 stainless steel mesh, the clearest view and the strongest.
Lookout mesh, which you see out through while people outside have a limited view in, depending on the light, is an option too. Every choice keeps insects out as well, so a security screen replaces the fly screen on that window.
Can you get out through a window security screen?
Yes, if it's hinged. A hinged screen opens from inside, so whoever is in the room can open it. We go through your windows one by one at the measure, and you choose which ones get a hinged screen.
Why we measure every window security screen in person
Prices aren't online, and we know that's annoying. We don't price security screens for windows from sizes, because the opening, the joinery, the handle and the mesh all change the price.
So David or Roman comes to your home. At the visit:
✓ We look at each window and how you use the room
✓ You see mesh samples against your joinery, in your own light
✓ You get a real price for each window
Frames come in standard colours, or a special powder-coat colour at extra cost. Like everything we fit, our window security screens are NZ made.
The measure is free and there's no obligation. Call 09 441 9455 or send us a message to book it.
How long do window security screens take?
Allow about 4 weeks from deposit to install, and longer before Christmas, so call early if that's your timing. Roman leads every install, with our own team.
Care, servicing and our 2-year warranty
Vacuum the mesh gently, then wipe the mesh and frames with warm water and mild household detergent. Never use solvents.
Follow-up servicing is available on every screen we fit. We also offer repairs and servicing on existing security screens, from re-meshing to new hinges.
Every screen carries our 2-year full warranty: parts and labour, with no call-out fee. If something goes wrong, we come and fix it.
What our customers say about their window screens
Eleven of our Google reviews are from security screen customers. Here are two about Roman's work.
"We have used Rollerflex twice to install mesh sliding insect screens and this time a screen security door and metal security stays with insect screens in most rooms. Roman did all the installations ... We can't fault his workmanship at all." (TS, March 2022)
"A very big thank you to Roman, he is so professional and goes that extra mile with some awesome finishing touches. So happy with my window screens, security door and sliding screen door." (Jan, October 2020)
Both had security doors fitted too. See security screen doors or our security doors and security screens page.
Window security screen questions
Can I leave the window open at night with a security screen?
Yes, that's the main reason people buy security screens for windows. The screen stays locked while the window behind it is open, and the mesh keeps insects out too.
Hinged, sliding or fixed window security screens?
Hinged where you need to open the screen from inside, sliding for sliding windows, and fixed for windows you never reach through.
Can a security screen fit an awning window?
Yes. A hinged screen lets you reach the stay from inside.
Do window security screens block the view?
That depends on the mesh. Clearguard gives a clear view out, and Supascreen stainless steel mesh the clearest. We bring samples so you can look through them at home.
Can the screen still open in an emergency?
Yes, if it's hinged. Hinged screens open from inside, and at the measure we agree with you which windows get one.
Do they keep insects out too?
Yes, so you won't need a separate fly screen on that window.
How long do window security screens take?
About 4 weeks from deposit to install, and longer before Christmas.
What warranty do you give?
2 years full, parts and labour, with no call-out fee. If something goes wrong, we come and fix it.
