The benefits of choosing Amplimesh®
Amplimesh® Fall Prevention Technology
(Australian Standard AS5203:2016)
Amplimesh® Fall Prevention Technology keeping you safe. The National Construction Code requires the protection of window openings in bedrooms that are located within 1700mm of the internal finished floor level and where the external fall externally is greater than 2 meters.
Openings in all other rooms that are located within 895mm of the internal finished floor level and where the fall externally is greater than 4 meters will also need to be protected.
The protection of window opening can be achieved with an Amplimesh® fixed window screen that has been proven to meet the testing requirements of Australian Standard AS5203-2016.
Bushfire Compliance
(Australian Standard AS3959:2018)
SupaScreen® security screens have been tested under this standard and satisfied the requirements for Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) 40.
Cyclone Missile Impacts
(Australian Standard AS1170.2:2021)
In cyclonic regions glazed windows and doors may need to be protected from flying debris. SupaScreen® Stainless Steel security products have been tested to resist a 4kg, 100mm x 50mm timber travelling at 34m/s fired from an air canon. The screen is then shot an additional five times with 8mm steel ball bearings, shot into the screen at the same speed.
Energy & UV
(Tested under the Window Energy Rating Scheme)
Screens are a useful tool to give a home Natural Cross Flow Ventilation and keep air-con costs down but they can also reduce solar heat and UV light out during summer periods, and help reduce heat loss during winter. The Window Energy Rating Scheme also known as ‘WERS’ independently tests the reduction in solar heat and damaging UV light across a range of typical glazed scenarios found in windows at Australian residences.
Fire Attenuation Test
(Australian Standard AS1530.4:2014, Appendix B7)
SupaScreen® Stainless Steel security products have been tested in general accordance with this standard and when exposed to incident radiant heat SupaScreen® achieves a 59% reduction in the radiant heat flux between the inside and outside of the product.
Jemmy Test
(Australian Standard AS5039.3: 2023, Part 3 Methods of Test)
The test simulates an intruder using a lever such as an industrial large scale screwdriver to try and pry open locking and hinge areas on a security door or window screen installation. The force applied is up to 450 N (45 kg) for 20 seconds, above and beyond the strength of many would-be intruders. All hinging and locking locations need to resist this attack with no gap greater than 150mm being generated.
Knife Shear Test
(Australian Standard AS5039.3: 2023, Part 3 Methods of Test)
SupaScreen® Stainless Steel and IntrudaGuard® Aluminium security products are tested for material hardness and tensile strength by subjecting the mesh to a standardised physical cutting attack, which draws a knife over the mesh a number of times.
Performance Testing
(Australian Standard AS5039.3: 2023, Part 3 Methods of Test)
The dynamic impact test was created to imitate an intruder attempting to kick, shoulder or otherwise force their way through the screen. The accepted and standardised test to replicate this is five 200 joule impacts (Energy).
Security Testing
(Australian Standard AS5039.1:2023)
Amplimesh® SupaScreen® Stainless Steel and IntrudaGuard® Aluminium security products are subjected to a rigorous regime of impact tests, jemmy attacks and pull testing under this standard, to ensure that the inherent strength and structural integrity of the manufactured security product is maintained.
The Complete Amplimesh® Range
Whether you need maximum strength, added privacy, or a cost-effective solution, Amplimesh® offers a product to match your needs.
SUPASCREEN®
Strong and discreet, SupaScreen® is made out of genuine Meshtec high tensile 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel that is woven into a fine mesh.
SupaScreen® security screen doors and windows screens are assembled using a patented “pressure fit” mesh retaining system, eliminating the need for screws, rivets, pins or snap-ins to retain the mesh panel.
This technology also prevents the aluminium frame and 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel mesh from coming into contact with each other, resisting galvanic corrosion and increasing the product’s overall lifespan.
PRIVACYGUARD®
With PrivacyGuard®’s restricted vision mesh, anyone looking into your home will have limited vision during daylight hours while those inside the home will have minimal visual obstruction, allowing you to see what’s going on outside. If privacy is your number one priority, then PrivacyGuard® is the screen for you.
INTRUDAGUARD®
IntrudaGuard® screens are made from specially tempered 5052 marine grade aluminum with a distinguished perforated design, offering corrosion resistance.
Like SupaScreen®, IntrudaGuard® security doors and window screens are assembled using a unique bonding process that eliminates the need for any unsightly fixings.
DIAMOND GRILLE
Although not as strong as the other options in our range, Diamond Grille offers affordable security for your home and can be seen as a deterrent for would-be intruders.
