Hinged Screens

Think of the possibilities for an opening security window screen.

Hinged Screen Window Product Sheet

Being able to open your security screen allows for easy access. Be it passing food into an entertaining area, or in case of an emergency. The biggest advantage, on a day to day basis, is the accessibility to open the screen to clean both screen and window glass, for a perfect view.

Prowler Proof’s unique system includes European designed hardware, with high security multi-point locking. This hardware has been proven to perform time after time, so you can be assured that your screen will open when you need it to, and close properly everytime. Like all Prowler Proof security products, our Hinge window has been tested and passed the Australian Standard AS5039, so you can be confident that the screen will only open when you want it to.

Our unique fixing channel with H.I.T.™ – Hidden Installation Technology, not only hides all the fasteners so your screen doesn’t look like its been added as an after thought, it locks all of them away, removing tampering opportunities.

The purpose designed, dual action handle removes the chance of accidental opening.

A closer look...

Take a look at our Hinged Window features. It's the quality of manufacture, and focus on the small details that make our Hinged Windows unique. If you're looking for superior quality and functionality, look no further than our Hinged Windows.

screen welded corners

Welded Corners

All Prowler Proof products feature fully welded frame corners. A weld can be stronger than parts joined by a screw or rivet. It looks better too. The weld means the screen looks like it's made in one piece. You will immediately notice the difference when you compare Prowler Proof with a product that is held together by screws or rivets.

304 stainless steel mesh

ForceField® Stainless Steel Mesh

The black powder coated, 304 stainless steel provides excellent resistance to corrosion. The 1.3mm aperture and 44.8% open area means Hinged Windows provides excellent visibility and airflow. While the 304 steel mesh is .6mm diameter wire, it is ultra high tensile giving the mesh its strength to ensure it passes the requirements of the National Construction Code for fall prevention.

maximum transparency

ForceField® Maximum Transparency

ForceField® mesh design ensures maximum visibility through the screen. Your views of outside will not be impeded by your screen.

perforated aluminium

Protec Perforated Aluminium

Protec uses 1.81mm thick, black powder coated, perforated aluminium sheet. With perforation diameters of just 2.5mm, the holes in the perforated aluminium sheet are too small to get through – even for mosquitoes, and with an open area of 39.2% Protec is still easy to see through and allows the breeze in for ventilation. Protec security doors and windows will also help keep solar heat and UV light out during summer – and reduce heat loss in winter.

high transparency

Protec Transparency

Protec's mesh design ensures high visibility through the screen, as the perforations are small enough to keep insects out, but large enough to allow excellent airflow and transparency.

qualicoat powdercoat

Qualicoat Accredited Powder Coating

Prowler Proof is one of only 10 powder coating applicators in Australia to be approved by Qualicoat International. Qualicoat is an international benchmark of quality. Qualicoat International audits Prowler Proof’s powder coating line twice a year, to allow us to retain our certification. The powder coating is a key element in the appearance of a security screen. The long term benefit of choosing a Qualicoat certified screen is superior corrosion protection – as evidenced in the fact that Prowler Proof is the only security screen to pass the acetic acid salt spray test and the only manufacturer to offer a 10 year replacement warranty.

full perimeter bond

Full Perimeter Bond

An adhesive is used to join the mesh to the frame. The frame is designed with special grooves that ensure when the adhesive is set you get both a mechanical and chemical bond. The adhesive is also used in other extreme applications such as aerospace and motorsports, where reliable bond through all sorts of conditions is required. The use of adhesives eliminates the corrosion associated with dissimilar metals joining, such as the joining of steel with aluminum. The use of adhesive as bonding material does not produce any deformation in the materials, improving the aesthetics of the product.

10 year replacement warranty

Full Replacement Warranty

All Prowler Proof product is covered by our 10 year replacement warranty. It's Australia's only screen replacement warranty and means you will get a brand new product if something goes wrong with your screen.

Colours

All Prowler Proof Hinged Screen Window products come in 50 standard colours and another 250 optional colours. There is no extra delivery time and only a small premium on optional colours.
