Security
The Australian Standards (AS 5039-2008) test consists of six separate tests that all have to be passed by the same test sample. The tests include dynamic impact test, jemmy test, pull test, probe test, shear test and knife shear test. The following Prowler Proof ranges meet the requirements for security:
Cyclone
Cyclone, and hurricane and pressure cycle testing (AS/NZS 1170 and AAMA 506-06/ASTM E1996/ASTM E1886) are the toughest tests a security screen can go through. These tests include the missile test, ballistics test, and a pressure cycle test. The following Prowler Proof ranges meet the requirements:
Fire Safety
Prowler Proof ForceField® Fire Attenuation Screens are designed to protect window openings that are less than 3m from a property boundary or within 6m of another building in the same allotment. Bushfire prone zones require that openable windows must be screened with corrosion-resistant steel, bronze or aluminium mesh with an opening of less than 2 mm x 2 mm (AS 3959-2009). The fire attenuation test (FS 4302/3572) shows the reduction in radiant heat flux level provided by the screen. The following Prowler Proof ranges meet the requirements:
Energy & UV Light
Screens provide ventilation but can also keep solar heat and UV light out during summer, and reduce heat loss during winter. WERS testing and testing to the European Standard (EN 14501) show the reduction in solar heat and damaging UV light, and reduction in heat loss, provided by the screen. The following Prowler Proof ranges have undergone testing:
Corrosion
Whenever two different metals interact there is a risk of corrosion. The tests (AS 2331.3.2 and AS 2331.3.1) to show corrosion-resistance are the acetic acid salt spray test and neutral salt spray test. The following Prowler Proof ranges have undergone testing:
Insect Protection
The mosquito protection test tests a screens ability to keep mosquitoes out over an extended period of time. The following Prowler Proof ranges meet the requirements:
Access Control
Allow unassisted access for pets or people, through the addition of optional access control accessories, such as keying locks alike, pet doors for family pets and solid panels for easier wheelchair accessibility. The following Prowler Proof ranges can have accessories added for access control:
Fall Prevention
The National Construction Code (NCC) (BCA 2013) requires that window openings be either restricted or screened, in certain circumstances, to prevent children falling. Screens that resist an outward horizontal action of 250 N meet the code and mean that window restrictors, that prevent the window being open more than 125mm, can be removed. The following Prowler Proof ranges meet the requirements:
ForceField
ForceField® security screens are made from 316 Marine Grade stainless steel mesh, they are near invisible and virtually unbreakable
Protec
Protec security screens are made from a sheet of perforated aluminium making them durable and a great option for seaside homes.
Guardian
Guardian® fall prevention window screens are made from 304 Architectural Grade stainless steel mesh, allowing you to fully operate your windows without the risk of falls.
Diamond
Prowler Proof Diamond security screens are built differently. Welded, not held by screws or rivets, they’re stronger, more durable, and look better.
Heritage
Prowler Proof’s Heritage doors add character to any home. Like all other Prowler Proof products they are not held together by screws or rivets, but welded. You’ll appreciate the seamless corners and the added strength.
Insect
Prowler Proof Insect are fly screens designed to keep small intruders out. Like all other Prowler Proof products, our Insect screens are welded with robotic perfection to ensure they’re the best looking fly screen in Australia.

We called the installer, not very hopeful of a good outcome, because the doors were 5 years old, and we live near the beach.
We had the doors serviced and cleaned, but the deterioration was still evident.
I decided to contact Prowler Proof to discuss our issue, and within 24 hours, not only had a response … but spoke to Nanette, who advised us, that they would make us a brand new set of doors, and have them installed within a few weeks.
I was blown away with the speed of their response, and the positive reaction from their customer service team.
This company deserves a rating of 5 stars for not only a great product, but a perfect example of great customer, and after sales service. Thank you Prowler Proof and Nanette.
