Types of Door Mesh
Flyscreen Door Mesh
Lightweight and breathable, this mesh is designed to keep flies, mosquitoes, and other insects at bay. It’s perfect for everyday residential use, particularly in kitchens, patios, and balcony doors where airflow matters.
Security Door Mesh
Stronger than standard flyscreens, security mesh provides a tamper-resistant barrier while still allowing ventilation. It’s suited for front entries, side doors, and any location where added protection is required.
Aluminium Door Mesh
Corrosion-resistant and lightweight, aluminium mesh is ideal for coastal or humid environments where traditional materials may deteriorate quickly.
Stainless Steel Door Mesh
Engineered for maximum durability, stainless steel mesh is the top choice for high-security applications. Resistant to corrosion, cutting, and impact, it’s widely used in commercial and high-traffic residential properties.

FAQs
What is the best mesh for security screen doors?

Can I replace door mesh myself?
Yes, many flyscreen and aluminium mesh options are DIY-friendly. For stainless steel security mesh, professional fitting is recommended.
Is aluminium or stainless steel better for coastal properties?
Aluminium resists salt corrosion effectively, but stainless steel provides superior long-term strength for high-exposure areas.
