Custom Hinged Security Doors for Melbourne Homes

Hinged security doors are one of the most common security screen configurations for residential entrances. They are typically fitted in front of an existing external door and open on hinges in the same way as a conventional screen door.

They can suit front entrances, rear doors, side access points and laundry doors, allowing ventilation through the doorway while adding a stronger screened barrier when the main door is open.

01

Front Entry Security

A practical way to add an additional screened barrier to suitable main entrance doors.

02

Fresh Air

Keep the main door open for ventilation while the security screen remains closed.

03

Custom Fit

The security door is measured to suit the actual entrance and surrounding frame.

04

Multiple Screen Styles

Choose from different security screen materials depending on appearance, privacy and budget.

Common Applications

Where Hinged Security Doors Are Commonly Installed

Hinged security doors are particularly suited to external doorways where the security screen can swing open independently of the main door.

Main Entrance

Front Security Doors

One of the most common applications. A custom hinged security screen can sit in front of the main entry door and allow airflow when the internal door is open.

Backyard Access

Rear Security Doors

Rear hinged entrances can benefit from the same combination of ventilation, insect screening and an additional security barrier.

Utility Entrance

Laundry Doors

Laundry entrances are a common location for hinged security screens because they are frequently used as secondary external access doors.

Side Access

Side Entrance Doors

Suitable side access entrances can also be fitted with a custom security screen to improve ventilation and everyday security.

Door Configuration

Opening Direction & Existing Frame Matter

A hinged security door needs more than just the correct width and height. The hinge side, opening direction, handle position, existing jamb and available clearance all affect how the finished security door should be configured.

For this reason, clear photos of the full doorway are useful before final measurements are confirmed.

Hinge Side The left or right hinge position needs to suit the existing doorway.
Opening Direction The security door needs sufficient space to open and close correctly.
Handle Position Security door hardware should work without conflicting with the existing main door hardware.
Existing Frame Suitable fixing points and frame condition are considered during measurement.
