Every Prowler Proof security screen delivered to Mackay comes from the same source: our purpose-built, fully automated factory in Brisbane. That means the screen fitted at your home has passed the same independent testing against AS5039.1, .2 and .3 as the samples put through the lab — not a lesser version built to a lower spec. Prowler Proof is a proud member of the National Security Screen Association (NSSA), independently audited to keep us accountable to that standard year after year, and every screen carries a 10-year full replacement warranty. Backed by an extensive network of authorised dealers right across Mackay and Queensland, help is always close by.
What separates our security screens from the rest of the market is in the detail. Every frame is held together with high-strength welded corners, not screws or rivets, so it won’t work loose over time. Our exclusive H.I.T. (Hidden Installation Technology) concealed-fix extrusions hide every fastener from view and lock it out of reach, closing off an obvious point of attack. Add a range of optional accessories on top, and everything we manufacture, from everyday flyscreens to our toughest security screens, is built to suit your Mackay home without sacrificing on looks.

Security Screens Mackay: Supply and Install Complete Security Door Solutions
Hinge Door
For Mackay homes with standard door openings or unique door sizes, Prowler Proof hinge screens are a tailored solution that combines everyday ventilation with serious strength while helping protect your property. Every hinge screen is built with our signature welded corners, and you can select the infill that fits how you live — ForceField for maximum airflow and clear sightlines, Protec when you want more privacy, or an Insect screen to keep flies and mozzies out on balmy Mackay evenings. A triple locking system, fitted with all compliant security doors, adds enhanced protection for main doors. Hinges can be fitted to the left or right of the door jamb, making them equally at home on single doors or French door pairs.
Sliding Door
Sliding screens suit Mackay homes built around indoor-outdoor living, gliding smoothly across stacking and sliding openings without swinging into your space, with custom installations available for patio enclosures. Like all Prowler Proof screens, they’re finished with welded corners for durability, and available in ForceField, Protec or Insect infills depending on whether you’re after airflow, privacy or pure insect protection. Better airflow can also reduce reliance on air conditioning in Mackay homes. It’s a practical, versatile fit for patios, alfresco areas and other indoor-outdoor spaces where floor space is at a premium.
Fixed Window
Fixed window screens are the simplest way to protect Mackay homes without sacrificing natural light. Built with the same welded corners as our doors, you can choose ForceField for airflow and visibility, Protec for added privacy, Guardian to help protect children, prevent falls from upper-storey windows, or a fly screen option made to fit all sizes of windows and doors for insect and pest protection – a straightforward option for windows that don’t need to open and close with window hardware. Guardian screens are designed for windows more than 2.0m above the ground and meet National Construction Code fall-prevention requirements. Professional installation ensures compliance with safety standards and reduces the risk of unsafe fitting.
Hinge Window
Prowler Proof’s hinge window screen pairs European-engineered hardware with high-security multi-point locking, built for windows that get opened and closed often. Our concealed fixing channel with H.I.T.® (Hidden Installation Technology) tucks every fastener out of sight and out of reach, so there’s nothing for an intruder to tamper with. A dual-action handle stops the window swinging open by accident, and the sash lifts out easily whenever it’s time to clean the screen and glass.
Our Range
ForceField®️
Built with 316 marine-grade stainless steel mesh — the standard trusted by boat builders around Mackay Harbour — ForceField screens are engineered to shrug off salt air, humidity and the region’s wet-season storms. 316 marine-grade stainless steel helps prevent corrosion in coastal environments. Our signature toughened welded corners keep every screen rock solid, while the high-tensile stainless steel mesh improves transparency and airflow. It’s the range Mackay homeowners reach for when they want maximum strength without a security-screen look, with durable protection against break-ins for coastal homes.
Protec
Made from a single sheet of perforated aluminium mesh with no dissimilar metals to corrode against, Protec is built for Mackay’s coastal suburbs — think Bucasia, Slade Point and Illawong Beach — where salt air takes its toll on lesser hardware, helping reduce UV heat while lowering corrosion risk. It trades a little visibility for extra privacy, making it a favourite for homes that back onto a street, park or neighbour’s yard.
Guardian®️
Guardian® fall-prevention screens let Mackay families open upstairs windows fully without worrying about young kids. Common in the elevated homes and highset Queenslanders scattered through Andergrove, Beaconsfield and West Mackay, Guardian keeps rooms cool and bright while adding a genuine safety barrier — and, like every Prowler Proof screen, it keeps the insects out too.
Diamond
Diamond brings a classic grille look to Mackay homes as a more affordable option, without cutting corners on protection. The frame and grille can be custom colour-matched, so it’s an easy fit whether you’re screening a weatherboard cottage in West Mackay or a newer build out towards Rural View.
Heritage
Heritage cast panel screen doors suit Mackay’s older housing stock, adding style and a touch of character to Federation-era homes and classic Queenslanders alike, with a traditional look that can complement older homes. They’re built to the same standard as every Prowler Proof product, so the traditional look doesn’t come at the expense of strength — these doors are made to handle the tropics for decades.
Insect Screens
Insect screens are the simplest option for keeping Mackay’s wet-season mozzies, midges and cane beetles outside where they belong. Available in a range of gauze options and finished with the same welded corners as our security ranges, they’re built tough enough not to sag or warp in the region’s heat and humidity, and can complement the home’s lifestyle when ventilation matters most.
Home Security Tips from Neighbourhood Watch Queensland (Mackay)
A security door is only one part of a safer home. Neighbourhood Watch Queensland’s Mackay chapter recommends a few simple habits alongside it:
- lock doors and windows even when you’re just outside in the garden,
- keep house keys and car keys out of sight rather than on a kitchen counter or hallway table, and
- trim back hedges and shrubs near windows and gateways that could give an intruder somewhere to hide (Neighbourhood Watch Queensland – Mackay).
Their core principle is straightforward — make it easy for an offender to be seen, and difficult for them to get in or get out with your belongings. A welded, Australian Standards-tested Prowler Proof security door does exactly that, giving Mackay homes a strong first line of defence to back up these everyday precautions, and a quality, tested secuity door can also enhance property value in the real estate market.
From the beachside streets of Blacks Beach and Grasstree Beach to the leafy blocks of Andergrove, Beaconsfield and Glenella, and out through Walkerston, Mirani and Eton, Mackay homeowners trust Prowler Proof security doors to stand up to whatever the tropics throw at them. Wherever you’re located across Mackay and the surrounding districts, Russco’s Security Screens can measure, supply and install a security door built for your home, as well as a full range of windows and doors, including security windows and screens, for residential or commercial properties.
