Wire Mesh Application: Security Screens

Wire Mesh Applications: Security Screens

Wire mesh is commonly used as security screens as part of windows or doors. When installed properly, the metal security screens for windows and doors can provide protection from burglars and intruders, while also reducing glare and outside heat, thereby reducing energy costs.

A popular specification for window wire screen mesh is 12×12 metal cloth with anywhere from .023″ to .035″ wires. However, when it comes to window screen mesh sizes, a variety of different specifications can be used depending on the opening size required. Using a wire mesh screen with small openings as metal window security screens offers good visibility without the ability for items to pass through it. 

Woven wire mesh works well for steel window screens due to its strength, availability, and its customizability. The interwoven and clinched design of woven wire mesh results in a durable and reliable material that retains its structural integrity during use even when subjected to impact and other stresses. Additionally, steel mesh in a woven design offers an easy-to-clean surface and its durability means little to no maintenance is required. When it comes to mesh for windows, the easier to maintain and clean, the better. No one wants to spend more time outdoors cleaning the outside of their home than needed.
