What is Crimsafe^®?

If it’s not Crimsafe^®, it’s not ‘crim safe’

Crimsafe is the strongest purpose-built stainless steel security system on the Australian market capable of providing tremendous resistance against intruders. Crimsafe is a woven stainless-steel mesh and frame system used to secure doors, windows and outdoor areas. Its smooth curved profile creates a streamlined look to complement any architectural style.

Why Choose Crimsafe?^®

Thicker, Stronger Mesh

Crimsafe’s ‘Tensile Tuff’ mesh is corrosion resistant 0.9mm thick 304 grade stainless steel, precisely woven so that every strand backs up the others. Research shows that the most common method of entry through security screens is via a series of kicks that break the screen apart. This will not happen with Crimsafe.

Crimsafe mesh is also incredibly difficult to cut. Crimsafe’s unique Tensile Tuff security mesh has a powerfully strong ‘shear resistance’. This means that a burglar cannot make a hole in the mesh by stabbing it, and then try to make it bigger by using body weight to drag the knife through the mesh to gain entry.

Unique Fastening System

Crimsafe’s ‘Screw-Clamp’ system is unique. Only Crimsafe uses stainless steel tamper resistant screws that are driven through both the clamp and the mesh, and into the frame on the other side. This combination mechanically fastens the mesh to the frame creating a barrier of incredible strength and resistance that cannot be ‘kicked in’. This exclusive technology allows it to withstand tremendous force by absorbing and dispersing impact.

The Crimsafe^® Range

At Toowoomba’s Lowes Glass & Aluminium, all Crimsafe^® products are custom made to measure, ensuring a perfect fit. The flexible framing systems can be applied to window and door openings, as well as French, Bi-fold and Stacking doors.

Frames are powder coated in a wide range of standard colours, and custom colours including woodgrain and anodised are available on request. Crimsafe^® combines modern design aesthetic with advanced technologies to provide unparalleled style, convenience, and peace of mind.

Benefits of Crimsafe^®

Impact & Leverage
Crimsafe is the strongest security screen on the market. It exceeds the Australian Standards required. Products are tested against dynamic impact and tool attacks. These tests simulate the force of a kick, punch or charge, as well as against screwdrivers and other tools used to leverage apart frames, locks and hinges.

Energy Efficient
Crimsafe assists with both thermal and light transfer from outside to inside the home. When Crimsafe security screens are applied over a window, the cooling efficiency of the window increases to a 3 star WERS rating, with a reduction in solar heat gain of up to 53%. Crimsafes’ Tensile-Tuff security mesh also blocks 62% of harmful UV rays from your home.

Fall Prevention
Crimsafe’s strength and durability keeps your family safe by preventing falls from windows and balconies. Crimsafe screens meet building construction requirements for child protection of openable windows, providing safety without compromising the look of the window.

Insect Protection
Crimsafe security screens keep pests and insects out of your home, without sacrificing airflow. Crimsafe Tensile-Tuff security mesh has been proven to keep mosquitos out whilst still allowing air circulation from outside to inside.
