ForceField Hinge window security screens open

The award-winning Prowler Proof Hinge Window Security Screens are the ultimate in window security screen protection

Every hinge window security screen is made to the standard that gets tested — because it’s made in the same factory

Every Prowler Proof hinge window screen is manufactured in our fully automated factory in Banyo, Queensland, using the same consistent process for every unit — so the screen delivered to your home is built to the identical standard as the screens that undergo independent testing, not a lower-cost variant. Every Prowler Proof hinge window has passed the Australian Standard for security screens (AS 5039), along with a range of additional performance testing beyond what’s required.

It’s the details you don’t see that make a hinge window security screen look like it belongs

High-strength welded corners and our exclusive H.I.T.® (Hidden Installation Technology) concealed fixing channel mean every Prowler Proof hinge window sits flush in the frame, with no visible screws or brackets to give away that it was added after the home was built.

Hinge Window Security Screen Applications

Every Prowler Proof hinge window is built with our unique welded corners, so there’s no crimped joint to work loose over time. Choose the infill to suit your lifestyle: ForceField for maximum airflow and visibility, or Protec for added privacy without losing airflow. Hinges allow the sash to open, lock, and come away entirely for cleaning, and Prowler Proof hinge window screens suit awning, casement, double hung, double sliding, and single sliding window applications. The choice is yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a hinge window security screen and how is it different from a fixed window screen?

A fixed window security screen is permanently fitted and doesn’t open. A Prowler Proof hinge window security screen opens and closes on hinges using a purpose-built dual-action handle, and can be fully removed when unlocked — making it the only operable window screen on the market you can take off for cleaning the screen and the glass behind it.

Is a hinge window security screen still secure when it’s not fixed?

Yes. The sash locks into the frame around its full perimeter through a European-designed multi-point locking system, and every screen is built with toughened welded corners rather than a lightweight opening frame — so being removable doesn’t come at the cost of how securely it locks when closed.

Can a hinge window security screen be custom made for different window types?

Yes. A certified local dealer measures your window on-site and manufactures the screen to fit, suiting awning, casement, double hung, double sliding, and single sliding window applications. The measure and quote is obligation-free.

What infill should I choose for a hinge window screen — ForceField or Protec?

It depends on what you want from the window. ForceField is a 316 marine-grade stainless steel mesh that sits almost invisibly in the frame, giving the best airflow and the clearest view through. Protec is a perforated aluminium sheet — more privacy than a fine mesh while still letting air through, and well suited to coastal locations where salt-air corrosion is a concern.

How do I clean a hinge window security screen?

Unlock it with the dual-action handle and the sash comes away from the frame entirely, giving you full access to clean both the screen mesh and the window glass behind it — something a fixed window screen doesn’t allow.

How much does a Prowler Proof hinge window screen cost?

There’s no fixed online price, because every screen is custom-made to your window size, chosen infill, and powder coat colour rather than sold as a standard unit. A certified local dealer provides an obligation-free measure and quote so the price reflects your specific window.

How long does it take to get a hinge window security screen made and installed?

Because every Prowler Proof security screen is manufactured in our own automated factory in Banyo, Queensland and fitted by a certified local dealer, hinge window screens are made and installed without the long wait times that can come with alternative brands.

Fitted our entire house with Prowler Proof screens. Great product and even better after sales service with first class warranty. Great blokes, both Merv. and Mike who are professional, friendly and experienced in security needs for the modern day home.

We were most impressed with the service we received from Prowlerproof and their local agent, Geelong Security Doors. We had a minor issue with a Prowlerproof scurity door in a home we purchased that was several years old and Prowlerproof arranged for their agent to rectify the problem at no cost. The communications and the follow-up were prompt and efficient which we found very refreshing in this day and age. A business I am happy to recommend.

Outstanding customer service and genuine accountability. I recently went through a warranty claim for existing Prowler Proof security doors. From the moment the job number was located, Nanette handled the matter professionally and proactively. She clarified warranty coverage, coordinated with the dealer, and ensured replacement doors were manufactured and installed properly. What stood out was her persistence and ownership of the process — particularly when there was confusion at the dealer level. She stepped in, clarified the correct pathway, and saw the matter through to completion. The new doors have now been installed and I’m extremely happy with the result. It’s refreshing to deal with a company that stands behind its product and supports its customers properly. Highly recommended.
