To ensure a door fulfils all these purposes and more, you need to choose carefully. That means ensuring any door you buy is strong and durable, is fitted correctly, has a variety of security features and is attractive to look at.
Security Doors Northern Suburbs Melbourne
First and foremost, a security door, as the name suggest, needs to comply with the Australian Standards to be properly secure. That implies one that’s strongly made of sturdy materials that are resistant to attempts to break in. If your premises are in an area where break-ins occur frequently, that may require a steel door with a steel grille. In other cases, an aluminium door may be enough since, although not as strong as steel, it will give the right appearance and will deter opportunist thieves.
Whatever claims a company makes about the security of its doors, they have limited value unless they’re backed up by facts. The best proof of a door’s quality is if it meets the Australian standard AS5039 and is installed in accordance with AS5040, so check with the supplier if this is the case before buying. Such doors will be resistant to corrosion, either being stainless steel or having been galvanised before powder coating. Read More
Steps to Follow when Choosing Security Doors
Doors with a steel infill of bars, a grille or a decorative motif are generally the strongest, although heavy-duty aluminium can be cheaper and will be almost as effective. Grilles should be comprised of thick metal and either welded to the door or fixed with rivets that are either inaccessible or otherwise difficult to remove.
At least three hinges should hold the door securely and these need to be heavy-duty with solid hinge pins that can’t be removed. Three-point locks prevent intruders prising open the top or bottom of the door and key locks should be five-point cylinder versions or something equivalent.
However strong the door and its components, these can be let down by poor installation or a frame that’s not substantial. Ideally, the frame should be made from the same strong material as the door and there should be no spaces for an intruder to insert a lever. This should prevent the door being pushed out of the frame while the hinges should be recessed or have a hinge filling to prevent tampering.
The cost of the security doors in Northern Suburbs will generally be reflected in its quality so don’t just buy the cheapest because it’s unlikely to do the job. Instead, aim for the best blend of quality, strength, good looks and a competitive price.
