What Kind of Impact Can Our Doors Withstand?

What Kind of Impact Can Our Doors Withstand?

When selecting a security door for your home or business, understanding its resilience to various types of impact is crucial. At Safer Security Doors, we take pride in exceeding not only your expectations but also surpassing Australian industry standards in multiple metrics.

Beyond Australian Standards

The Australian Standards for security products set specific criteria that a door or window system must meet to be categorised as a "security product." However, at Safer Security Doors, we aim to go far beyond the basic requirements. The industry standard for the dynamic impact test is to withstand at least 5 impacts. Our doors, impressively, can handle 100 impacts, 20 times the required number.

No Screws, No Rivets, Just Pure Engineering

Perhaps what makes our door system especially remarkable is the absence of screws or rivets to affix the mesh into the door and window frame. Instead, we use an innovative load-locking design that provides a highly effective and incredibly robust hold. This approach ensures a sturdier build that doesn’t weaken over time, as some mechanically-fixed products do.

Cyclonic Debris Resilience

Another testament to the resilience of our security doors is their performance in debris tests for cyclone-prone areas. These tests simulate the flying debris expected during an extreme weather event, and our door systems passed with flying colours, an excellent choice for regions at risk of severe storms.

Strength by the Numbers

When put to the test, the Safer Security Door system was found to be significantly stronger than standard mechanically-fixed alternatives. It’s engineering, not just materials, that makes the difference, and it’s backed by NATA-accredited laboratory testing.
