What Are Barrier
Door Screens?
Barrier door screens sit between standard insect door screens and full security door screens, providing enhanced protection at every entry point in your home. They use stronger aluminium mesh that resists impact and provides a physical deterrent against accidental or opportunistic entry through doorways.
Every screen we supply is made to measure, manufactured to fit your exact door dimensions. We use premium aluminium frames and durable barrier-grade mesh designed for Queensland's coastal climate — resistant to corrosion, UV damage and general wear.
Barrier door screens are an excellent choice for families wanting added safety at entry points without the cost or visual impact of full security door screens. They meet the needs of many strata and body corporate requirements for doorway safety.

Common Questions
01 What is the difference between barrier and security door screens?
Barrier door screens use a medium-weight aluminium mesh that provides enhanced protection beyond standard insect screens but are not tested to the same forced-entry standards as security door screens (AS5039/AS5041). They offer a good middle ground — stronger than insect screens, lighter and more affordable than full security door screens.
02 Are barrier door screens suitable for sliding doors?
Yes, barrier door screens work exceptionally well on sliding door openings. We use heavy-duty tracks and rollers designed for the heavier barrier mesh, ensuring smooth operation. They are available for standard sliding doors as well as wider multi-panel openings.
03 Can I add a pet door to a barrier door screen?
In many cases, yes. Pet door inserts can be fitted into hinged and sliding barrier door screens, allowing your pets to come and go freely while maintaining the enhanced barrier protection. We can advise on the best pet door options for your specific screen configuration.
04 How do barrier door screens hold up in coastal conditions?
Extremely well. We use marine-grade aluminium frames and corrosion-resistant mesh specifically suited to Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast coastal conditions. All frames are powder-coated for additional protection against salt air, humidity and UV exposure.
05 Do barrier door screens meet body corporate requirements?
Many barrier door screen products meet strata and body corporate requirements for entry point safety in residential buildings. Requirements vary between complexes, so we recommend checking your specific body corporate guidelines. We can supply screens that comply with most common specifications.
