How to Choose the Right Security Screen Mesh for Your Home?

Here we explore some of the factors that affect the quality and performance of stainless steel security mesh used for security doors and security windows. There are many important attributes to consider when analyzing the quality and performance of stainless steel mesh, including:

* Wire composition

* Weaving techniques

* Powder coating

* Testing and compliance

Security Windows

Wire composition

304 grade stainless steel contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel while 316 stainless steel contains 16% chromium, 10% nickel, and 2% molybdenum. Adding molybdenum helps resist corrosion to chlorides (like seawater).

316 marine grade mesh has better corrosion resistance and is more suitable for use at sea.

Grade 304 can be used in areas far from the sea, grade 304 is also durable, easy to fabricate, clean, weld, and finish.

Another aspect to consider is the diameter of the wire used in the stainless steel security mesh. In Australia, the two most common wire diameter sizes are 0.8 mm (for 316 marine grade mesh) and 0.9 mm (for 304 grade stainless steel mesh).

We have rich experience in the production of stainless steel mesh with high tensile strength and thick wire diameter(0.7mm and above). Our R&D team has developed 0.9mm and 1mm stainless steel mesh-Super stainless mesh and 1.2mm ultimate stainless mesh. Domine also provides 316 marine grade stainless steel mesh and 304 grade stainless steel mesh.

The tensile strength of individual wires is an important factor in the strength of stainless steel wire mesh. Tensile strength is a measure of the force the wire can withstand before it breaks.

Weaving process

Having a high-quality wire is one of the most important parts of the process, but this will be meaningless if it is not combined with an effective weaving process.

There are usually two ways to combine wire into a mesh.

- The welded wire mesh process

- The woven wire mesh process

The welded wire process used to create the mesh is done using automatic welding machines that weld the intersecting wires together to form a permanent bond. The woven wire mesh process uses specialized machines and rotating technology to shoot the wire in a fast motion to create the mesh. Domine security mesh is made of high tensile stainless steel wire by plain weave. 

Powder Coatings

As we all know powder coatings are applied to surface type finishes using free-flowing dry powders. It is applied using an electrostatic process and then cured under heat. Domine security mesh is available in a black AkzoNobel powder coating. Let us help you find the high-quality security mesh for you.

Test Reports

Most security mesh manufacturers are familiar with the tests that apply to safety products under Australian Standard AS 5039-2008. One of the tests used in the standard is the knife and shear test, designed to mimic the knife attack of an intruder as they attempt to cut through the mesh of a security window or door. Domine security mesh passed the Australian standard knife shear test and salt spray test. Lots of high tensile wire can stop knife cutting and bullet shooting to make sure your security.
