(*Please note this product, by industry titles, is called "One Way Vision Mesh", but that this is not entirely a fact, it is never 100% one way (at a minimum there is usually a silhouette somewhere). What needs to be created is that the outside area needs to be lighter than the inside area where the person is looking out. If these conditions aren't available it won't work as well, or if they are reversed, then it will cause the opposite effect, such as a light being on inside while it is night time.)
Our Security Screens Doors are available in a variety of Dulux Colours. We have a selection of standard door colours as well as a wood grain option. We also provide the option to powder coat non standard colours if required, for all our security door and window screens. Powder coating is an additional service and can extend expected installation times.
A guide to choosing a particular frame colour for your security screen door could be to match it to the existing door jambs. Sometimes it can work to match it to the down pipes and guttering and also to the window frame colours. We are always happy to provide advice about colour selection however, It is very much an individual choice.
