The Best Security Doors to Make Your Perth Home Safer

Wed, 20 Nov 2019 10:46:53 GMT

With 60 years in the industry, we’ve got the experience and knowledge to help you choose the best security door for your Perth home. Thankfully, the choice is pretty simple: we’ve got two high-quality brands to choose from: our PROMESH range and our SECUREGRILLE range.

Australian-designed and made, PROMESH and SECUREGRILLE are the perfect choices if you want something that is built to withstand the harsh Perth environment, provides outstanding protection for your home and is available at a competitive price.

Why PROMESH and SECUREGRILLE?

Manufactured in our own factory here in Perth, PROMESH and SECUREGRILLE offer many advantages:

Australian Standards Compliant (and beyond)

Security products must meet Australian Standards ; the minimum requirements set out by the Australian government. Both PROMESH and SECUREGRILLE products have been extensively independently tested and have met or exceeded every single criterion.

Tests include:

Knife Shear Test: AS5039
Jemmy Test: AS5039/5041
Security Screen Installation: AS5040
Salt Spray Test: AS2331.3
Insect Protection: Keep Flies Out
Dynamic Impact Test: AS5039/5041
Lock & Hinge Lever Test: AS5039/5041
Cyclone Debris Test: AS1170.2
Outward Window Force Test: AS4420.7
Bushfire Attack Level: AS3959 (BAL) 40

Innovative Home Security

We’re constantly looking for innovative new ways to help protect our customers. Our SECUREGRILLE system uses a uniquely heavy-duty frame for securing the grille to the frame. In contrast, many other systems use a smaller, thinner frame, which is considerably weaker.

Multiple Stylish Designs

Security is important, but we know looks are important too. Both the PROMESH and SECUREGRILLE systems come in a wide variety of colours to suit any home. PROMESH security doors are also available in Wood Look colours.

Outstanding Quality Control

Because our security doors are manufacturer on-site, we have complete control over the quality of the product we provide our customers – we don’t have to rely on anyone else’s standards. This enables us to ensure the doors we provide our customers are always top quality.

It’s Not Just About The Door – 3 Other Factors You Should Consider

Your choice of security door is important, but it shouldn’t be the only factor in your decision. You should also consider the following three factors:

1. Installation

It doesn’t matter how strong your security door is if it is fitted incorrectly. Our experienced installers are all police-licensed security professionals; you can trust them with both your security door and your home.

2. Warranty

Your security door’s warranty is a reflection of the manufacturer’s trust in their own workmanship. Our confidence in the quality of our work means we can back it up with a 10-year warranty.

3. Quick Turnaround – Even For Custom Builds

With our own factory, we can guarantee a quick turnaround time for your project – even if it’s a custom build.

5 Reasons Why Bonds Security Products Are The Number One Suppliers Of Security Doors & Screens in WA

Wed, 20 Nov 2019 07:03:35 GMT

When you purchase a security door or screen, you are entrusting that company with the security and safety of your home and family (or business). It is essential that you choose a company that can assess your needs, suggest an appropriate product, and then correctly install it.

Bonds Security Products are specialists in the manufacture, installation, and servicing of security doors and screens for Perth and Western Australia. With more than 60 years experience in the industry, we’ve built up a reputation as the most-trusted security door supplier in the Perth area.

If you are currently on the market for a security door or screen, we’d like you to consider our team. Here are just a few of the reasons why we’re number one in Perth:

1. We Have More Than 60 Years Experience

With more than 60 years experience in the industry, we’ve seen it all. We’ve lost count of the number of installations we’ve done – but it’s fair to say it’s a lot! This experience enables us to give our customers the best possible advice for their situation and help them to get security and peace of mind at a competitive price.

2. Our Security Doors Are Tested Beyond Australian Standards

Australian Standards are the specifications that ensure products meet the minimum standards of safety and quality. Our security products pass, and often exceed these standards, including:

Lock & Hinge Lever Test (AS5039/5041)
Jemmy Test (AS5039/5041)
Knife Shear Test (AS5039)
Dynamic Impact Test (AS5039/5041)
Cyclone Debris Test (AS1170.2)
Outward Window Force Test (AS4420.7)

Both our PROMESH and SECUREGRILLE products have been tested independently to ensure they meet or exceed these standards. Doors and screens can’t be labelled as security products unless they have been proven to pass these tests, so watch out for imported ‘security’ products that aren’t worthy of the name.

3. We Offer Factory Direct Prices

All our security doors are produced in-house at our factory in Malaga. Not only does this give us direct control over the quality of our products, but it also means we can offer highly-competitive factory direct prices for our customers. Ultimately, this means you are receiving a higher quality product for your money.

We also offer a price-match on our security doors and screens, so if you do see an identical product for a lower price, we’ll match it*. We also offer WA Seniors Card Members 10% off.

*Price match excludes commercial quantities, trade quotes, and stock liquidations.

4. All Our Security Consultants and Installers Are Licensed and Police-Cleared

When you let an installer into your home, you want to be certain that they are adding to your security, not reducing it. That’s not a problem with our team – everyone who visits your home is licensed and police-cleared, so you have complete peace of mind.

5. Free Onsite Measure and Quote

Our licensed security consultants provide free onsite measurements and quotes for customers in the Perth area. This is a no-pressure service designed to help you make an informed decision about your purchase.

7 Important Questions You Should Ask Your Security Door Company Before You Buy

Wed, 20 Nov 2019 00:00:00 GMT

When choosing a security door , it’s important to not only get the right product, it’s essential to find the right installer. A high-quality security door can be let down by poor installation, and a low-quality security door will never protect your home, no matter how good your installer is.

Here are seven questions you should ask your security door company to ensure you’re getting the quality your home or business needs:

1. Are Your Security Doors Made In Australia?

The Australian climate is harsh on infrastructure, including your security door. Australian-made security doors are built to withstand this, but many imported doors struggle. Not all doors that may look like a security door are actually a certified security door.

2. Do Your Security Doors Meet Australian Standards?

Australian Standards are documents set out by the government that specify minimum performance levels for various services and products, including security doors. If a door does not meet these standards, it cannot legally be sold as a security door in Australia.

The main standard relating to security doors is AS5039 (Security Screen Door and Security Window Grilles). Doors that meet this standard have passed tests that include a knife shear test, a jemmy test, a dynamic impact test, and a lock & hinge lever test.

3. Are You Insured?

You should expect any installer coming into your home to have public liability insurance. This insurance protects them financially in the event they cause damage to your property or injury to another person while working.

While this insurance is designed to protect them, it also protects you; without this, they may not be able to pay in the unlikely event you need to make a claim against them.

4. Are You WA Police-Licensed?

Security installers are legally required to hold a Security Installer Licence, which they receive after the WA Police have completed the necessary background checks, have taken their finger-prints and passed a written test.

5. What Warranty Comes With My Security Door?

You should normally expect to receive a 10-year warranty with a high-quality security door. Of course, a warranty doesn’t mean much if the company can’t or won’t back it up, so you should check online reviews to see if previous customers have had any problems.

6. How Long Have You Been in Business?

Experience counts . The longer your installer (and their business) have been operating, the more experienced they are – and the better the chance of getting a great result. A business which has been running for ten years or more has proven that they have staying power, and as a result, are more likely to still be running in another five or ten years to back up their warranty.

7. Do You Provide After-Sales Support?

Security doors are, by design, very tough, but they still need the occasional spot of maintenance to ensure they continue to protect your home. While some of this is preventative (a good regular cleaning lubrication goes a long way to protecting your security door), you’ll want to have someone on call should you need your door checked over.

Is Your Home Truly Burglar Proof? The 4 Keys To Securing Your Home

Tue, 19 Nov 2019 16:00:00 GMT

Most residential robberies are opportunistic crimes; the burglar explores a neighbourhood assessing the risk and reward of each home, picking those that offer the best opportunity. For these thieves, the risk they want to reduce is the risk of detection, while the reward is your valuables.

Secure Your Home With These 4 Action Points

Your job as a homeowner is to ensure that your home represents a poor opportunity for the would-be burglar by increasing the perceived risk of detection while reducing the reward they will receive. Thieves pick the homes that are least secure – your objective is to ensure that it’s not yours.

Let’s take a look at four easy ways you can achieve that:

Appearance: Make Your Home a Bad Target

Appearances are everything. Make your home look more secure by installing security screens on the windows and a security front door. Keeping your garden and home well-maintained shows potential thieves that you care for your home and property. You want any unwelcome visitors to know that your home is going to be a tough one to crack.

You should also avoid displaying possessions that may tempt thieves into having a go at your property. Store your car in your garage and cut up and dispose of boxes for expensive goods; don’t leave the boxes for your brand new $2000 TV sitting on the pavement as a signpost for thieves. If possible, avoid leaving valuable possessions where they can be seen through windows and doors.

Visibility: Make It Hard For a Burglar To Conceal Themselves

A burglar’s first priority is to avoid protection. Privacy fences and hedges don’t just give you and your family privacy; they also give thieves the shelter they need to break in without neighbours seeing. Ensuring clear lines of site to your home from the road and installing motion-sensor lights at the front and back will make burglars uncomfortable approaching your home.

Community: Get To Know Your Neighbours

A strong community is a strong protection against thieves. Get to know your neighbours and encourage them to keep an eye on your property and do the same for them. Let them know when you’re going on holiday so that they can report any suspicious activities during that time. Visible neighbourhood watch signs may also help deter criminals.

Safety: Secure All Entry Points

Installing security doors and security window screens will both deter thieves and make it harder to break-in should they try. While no door or window is completely impregnable, security screens mean the force, time and noise necessary to get through makes it highly likely the thief will be detected long before they achieve entry, so they will almost certainly choose an easier opportunity.

While ground-floor entry points are preferred, some homes have balconies that are accessible with a small amount of climbing – make sure these are secure too.
