AUSTRALIAN SECURITY DOOR STANDARDS
Australian Standards are published documents setting out specifications and procedures designed to ensure products, services and systems are safe, reliable and consistently perform the way they are intended to. They establish a minimum set of requirements which define quality and safety criteria.
When it comes to the design and testing of our security products, we have taken every step to ensure that our doors, window screens, and other security products exceed all the recommended Australian Standards.
Every single one of our products in the range has been designed with the security and safety of our end users in mind.
PROMESH316 and SecureGrille products have been independently tested by
Azuma Design
which is one of Australia's largest privately-owned compliance testing and engineering companies.
Australian Standard AS5039
Security Screen Door and Security Window Grilles is the main product standard relating to Security Screens. This standard calls up AS5041
Methods of Test - Security Screen Doors and Window Grilles.
Further information about the Australian Standards for security doors

to assess its impact strength in case of an intruder attacking the door by kicking or hitting it.
LOCK & HINGE TEST - PASSED
The Australian Standard Lock & Hinge Test was conducted on a PROMESH316 and SecureGrille security door
to assess if any vulnerability exists during a jemmy attack.
KNIFE SHEAR TEST - PASSED

The Australian Standard Salt Spray Test was performed on the PROMESH316 0.9mm marine grade 316 stainless steel mesh to determine its corrosion resistance.
BARRIERS FOR POOLS - PASSED
The Building Regulations 2012 (the Regulations) requires all private swimming and spa pools that contain water that is more than 300mm deep to have a compliant safety barrier installed that restricts access by young children to the pool and its immediate surrounds. PROMESH316 and SecureGrille screens can be manufactured to comply with pool regulations in Perth.
FALL PREVENTION - PASSED
The Australian Standard Window Fall Prevention Test is used to verify product performance claims for windows made from timber, aluminium, uPVC or other materials. PROMESH316 and SecureGrille security screens
were tested for their suitability as protection from the dangers of a child falling through an open window.
CYCLONE IMPACT TEST - PASSED
The Australian Standard Cyclone Missile Impact Test was conducted on a PROMESH316 security screen, where a solid piece of hardwood was launched into the screen at very high speeds to determine its strength and suitability of use in cyclone prone areas.
BUSHFIRE PRONE AREAS - PASSED
PROMESH316 security screens may be used in bushfire prone areas. The Australian Standard Bushfire Prone Areas Test prescribes the suitability of mesh used for screening of doors or windows to prevent an ember attack.
