As a homeowner, you have a lot to think about and consider when it comes to protecting your home. After all, your home is your sanctuary, it is one of the few places in the world that gets to truly feel “yours”, and that means making it feel as safe as possible is always going to be a top priority. At Clearshield Victoria, we’ve been working with Australians across the state of Victoria to provide unintrusive, reliable safety solutions for homes. So, we thought it’d be good to go through some of the benefits of security doors for those who are thinking of getting them installed.
Feeling Safe, Especially When Home Alone
Especially for those of us who have experienced break-ins or intrusion attempts, the idea of being home alone can be quite stressful. Home should be the place where we have the most peace of mind, but if you are worried about someone making their way into your property, then it’s important to have deterrents in place to shake off those “what if” thoughts.
Security doors not only protect your home from break-ins but also make it less likely that people will attempt to break into a property in the first place. Studies have shown locking mechanisms such as security doors and security window locks to be highly effective in reducing burglaries when compared to other systems. So, if you’re looking to feel safe in your apartment, security doors, security screens, and a reliable CCTV system are a fantastic combination of options for you and your family.
Stay Cool in the Australian Summers
If you’ve been living in Australia for any amount of time then you don’t need Clearshield Victoria to tell you that it can get hot in the summer. With bills on the rise and the expense of heating and cooling being overwhelming for some families, having a way to get the cool airflow you need without compromising on security (or for the summer, bug bites) is a practical necessity for being able to relax.
A steel mesh security door is a fantastic way to not only keep your house cool in the warmer months but also maintain consistent natural airflow year-round. The importance of air quality has become more and more of a pressing issue over time for many families, with many households now using air purifiers to remove allergens and control dust. By having open doors and windows, you’re cycling out the air, and ensuring that what you’re breathing is fresh.
Peace and Privacy All At Once
If you’re someone who is worried about privacy, or you happen to have neighbours who like to see what other people are doing, security doors and screens can keep strangers out of your business. Thanks to their metal mesh design, you can enjoy having the door open and having the breeze roll through your home, all without pesky pedestrians being able to peep in when you don’t want them to. Couple this with some quality plantation shutters, and you have yourself a delightful sanctuary that is sure to leave you feeling peacefully at-home.
Protecting Your Family
Whether you’re a parent or a pet owner, you know that both young children and animals have a habit of getting into things when you’re not looking. A security door with a durable lock allows you the peace of mind that comes with knowing that your furry friends and younger family members can’t go wandering off.
An open door with a reliable security mesh allows your children to experience the fresh air and see the outside world, whilst also ensuring that they aren’t going to go exploring without you. So, avoid the outdoor hazards, keep your family safe, and get that fresh air that everyone loves all at the same time.
Beat the Bugs
As a person with a number of arachnophobes in my life, there’s nothing worse than looking over to find an eight-legged intruder scuttling under something, only to lose sight of them and not know how to remove them. Even for those of us who are far more positive about bugs, beetles, and beyond, intruders such as bees, wasps, mosquitos, hornets, and more can pose legitimate concerns at worst, and be very annoying to deal with at best.
By having a security mesh screen door, you can enjoy the outside world without turning your front door into a welcoming entrance for invasive insects. So, if you’re looking for a way to reduce your time spent on mosquito swatting duty, then a security door is the way to go.
