Unraveling the Strength of Crimsafe Security Screens

Crimsafe has many imitators, but there is no equivalent. Crimsafe’s unique combination of Screw-Clamp® technology and Tensile Tuff® Mesh offers unparalleled strength and peace-of-mind for you and your family.

Since 1996, Crimsafe’s security screens have been revolutionising home security with unique Screw-Clamp® technology. At its core, the patented Screw-Clamp® system uses tamper-resistant screws to secure the 0.9mm Tensile Tuff® mesh within the frame. This design creates a vice-like grip that can absorb and disperse high levels of impact, making your security screen incredibly resilient and you safer in your home.

Crimsafe security screens don’t just meet the Australian Standards, they by far exceed them. Crimsafe’s combination of unique elements work together to provide the highest level of protection for your family. 

Unlike other security screens that rely on plastic wedges or glue to hold the mesh in place, Crimsafe’s patented Screw-Clamp® technology clamps down on impact and distributes the force of an impact across the entire frame. This ensures that the mesh remains intact, even under tremendous force, providing superior protection against potential intruders. This innovative approach is what sets Crimsafe apart in the security screen market.  

Tested again and again, so you don’t have to 

Independent university testing found that Crimsafe security screens stood up against an Australian Standard of 5 X 100 Joule (J) impact, but also against singular impact levels up to 550J (Crimsafe Regular), 750J (Crimsafe Ultimate) and 1200J (Crimsafe Heavy-Duty). Did you know that the average adult male weighing 86kg can easily exert more than 100 Joules of force in a simple impact? Crimsafe is the only security screen to incorporate Screw-Clamp® technology, giving it unrivalled resistance to real-world attacks – well above Australian Standards.  

What makes Crimsafe’s Tensile Tuff® mesh so unique?

Crimsafe’s Tensile Tuff® Mesh is one of the many parts that make our security screens so strong. Crimsafe’s patented Tensile-Tuff® mesh is made using superior 0.9mm diameter 304 structural grade stainless steel wire strands. Sure, it’s a mouthful, but it’s worth taking a moment to understand the difference between this material and cheap mesh imitations. When compared to 0.8mm 316 grade wire, Crimsafe Tensile-Tuff® is 26.5% thicker in cross-section, which assists its ability to absorb impact energy better at high tensile levels, providing unmatched strength and durability to keep your family safer at home. 

When you invest in Crimsafe, you invest in Australia’s strongest security screen – which is why we back your investment with a 10-year warranty as standard. For additional peace of mind, we also offer the option to extend your warranty up to 15-years.

Crimsafe outperforms the rest

The synergy between Crimsafe’s Screw-Clamp® technology and Tensile Tuff® Mesh is what gives Crimsafe security screens their unmatched strength and durability. When an impact occurs, the Screw-Clamp® technology effectively transfers the force around the frame, preventing any localised damage to the mesh. This means that the screen can withstand repeated impacts without compromising its integrity. 

Crimsafe’s Tensile-Tuff® mesh uses 0.9mm 304 structural-grade stainless steel, which can withstand high levels of force without tearing or breaking. Tensile-Tuff® mesh is 26.5% thicker than typical stainless-steel mesh found in other security screens. Together, Screw-Clamp® and Tensile Tuff® mesh provide a level of security that is unparalleled in the industry, making Crimsafe the go-to choice for homeowners looking to protect their properties and live safer. 

No regrets. No compromise.

The combination of Screw-Clamp® technology and Tensile Tuff® Mesh ensures that your screens will remain strong and durable for years to come. Why compromise your home security when you can rest easy knowing that your home and family are protected by Australia’s strongest security screens. Because if it’s not Crimsafe, it’s not crim safe.
