Securing a 1920s Renovated Home

Security Screen Installation in East Toowoomba

After completing renovations on their 1920s East Toowoomba home, the owners wanted a security solution that would protect the property without taking away from its heritage character.

Located in an area known for premium homes, the house needed screens that could provide security, airflow and natural light. This had to be done without compromising appearance. Platinum Glass & Security, the local Authorised Prowler Proof dealer in Toowoomba, was engaged to deliver a custom security screen solution. This had to be delivered across the home’s mix of original windows, new large-format sliding doors and a north-facing deck.

The Challenge

The home featured a variety of openings, including original windows, modern sliding doors and outdoor living areas. The challenge was finding a security screen product that could suit each application while creating a consistent look across the entire home. Because the property had recently been renovated, the owners also wanted to ensure the screens complemented the home’s heritage style rather than looking like an afterthought.

With break-ins on the rise in the area, the homeowners were looking for genuine protection. They didn’t want to compromise on airflow, natural light or street appeal.

The Solution

The homeowners chose Prowler Proof ForceField® security screens for both the doors and windows.

As Prowler Proof’s premium security screen product, ForceField® offered the wide views and open feel the homeowners were looking for, while providing high-level protection and a clean architectural finish.

For this project, ForceField® was an ideal fit because it could be custom manufactured for the home’s different openings while maintaining a uniform appearance throughout.

The homeowners were particularly impressed by the screen’s clean design, with no visible rivets or screws, as well as the fact that the products are manufactured locally in Brisbane. They also valued Prowler Proof’s 10-year replacement warranty, which gave them additional confidence in the investment.

The Result

The finished installation gave the home the balance the owners were looking for: security, airflow, natural light and a design that worked with the home’s character. The screens helped the house remain bright and breezy, while giving the homeowners peace of mind that their property was properly protected.

For Platinum Glass & Security, the project also highlighted the benefit of working with factory-built, custom-made products.

“I choose to partner with Prowler Proof for its quality and consistency. Everything is factory-built, custom to my specifications, which means less on-site adjustment.” — Robbie, Platinum Glass & Security
