Security Window Screens | St. John’s College

Apr 22, 2014

St. John’s College in Brisbane actively enhanced its security by installing ForceField^® window screens. Coinciding with this upgrade, the college boasts a rich history dating back to 1911, the same year that the University of Queensland welcomed its inaugural class of students. Today it’s home to 320 students who enjoy the proximity to the Brisbane River but also have to accept the downsides of riverside living … flies and mosquitoes are frequent roommates for students.

Erin Dieperink – St. John’s College Business Manager says

“We had flyscreens installed before but they tended to pop and frequently needed repair. So when we recently renovated two blocks we were looking for another solution.”

“A friend alerted me to ForceField^® window security screens. The mesh is fine enough to keep out mosquitoes and flies…and strong enough to keep out almost anything else. The discreet look suited our buildings and it was easy to choose the perfect colour from the 50 standard options. We ended up ordering more than 100 window screens for the two blocks that we were renovating.”

“All window security screens had to go in over the Christmas break so there was no time for errors. Prowler Proof delivered everything within a week – exactly as ordered. Within two weeks we had installed all ForceField^® window screens and now, several months down the track, we only have positive feedback of the windows security. The extra security measures have won the parents’ approval, ensuring their children’s safety without a single incident of breakage to date. Which is no mean feat with more than 100 ForceField^® security screens installed…”

“Located so close to the river, corrosion could of course be an issue. Prowler Proof guarantees a 10-year replacement warranty on all products, including the ForceField^® mesh, which boasts durable marine grade stainless steel construction. I’m completely confident that we have made the right decision with ForceField^® windows security – a decision that will save us plenty of time and money as the years go by.”
