High-Impact Security for Your Primary Entryway
The Ultimate Hinged Security Screen is a formidable barrier designed to stop forced entry attempts before they reach your main door. Unlike generic hardware store products, our hinged doors are custom-fitted to your specific door jamb, ensuring there are no gaps for prying tools. This professional reinforcement is a key component of effective residential security, as noted by the National Crime Prevention Council.
Our installations prioritize structural rigidity. By mounting the door with extra-long security screws into the wall studs, David ensures the entire entry system is reinforced. This prevents the door from being kicked in or pulled off its hinges, a common vulnerability in standard residential door frames.
Marine-Grade 316 Stainless Steel Construction
We exclusively use 316 marine-grade stainless steel mesh for our Ultimate Hinged installations. This material is the gold standard for durability, offering significantly higher resistance to corrosion and physical impact than 304-grade alternatives. The importance of using 316-grade steel in various environments is well-documented by materials experts at ASM International, particularly for its ability to withstand harsh weather and pollutants without degrading.
- Impact Resistance: The high-tensile mesh is designed to absorb and deflect high-velocity force.
- Shear Protection: The weave is so dense that it resists cutting by knives or traditional hand tools.
- Corrosion Longevity: The marine-grade alloy ensures your door remains rust-free and aesthetically pristine for years, even in coastal locations.
Triple-Locking System for Maximum Reinforcement
Every Ultimate Hinged door we install comes standard with a professional triple-locking system. This mechanism secures the door at three distinct points, the top, the middle, and the bottom, with a single action of the key or internal lever. This prevents “peeling,” where an intruder attempts to bend the top or bottom corner of the screen door to gain access.
This multi-point locking technology is a recommended standard for home hardening, a practice frequently detailed in safety resources from FEMA. By distributing the locking force across the entire vertical length of the frame, we ensure that the door remains an impenetrable unit that cannot be easily levered or bypassed.
Enhanced Airflow and Energy Efficiency
Installing a hinged security screen allows you to keep your main solid door open while maintaining a secure perimeter. This facilitates maximum natural ventilation, which is essential for maintaining healthy indoor air quality and reducing the heat load on your home.
According to energy efficiency research from the U.S. Department of Energy, utilizing natural cross-breezes can significantly lower cooling costs during summer months. Our high-visibility mesh provides this airflow without the visual clutter of bars or grilles, allowing you to enjoy the breeze and the view while remaining completely protected from both intruders and pests.
