Protec Security Doors

Smart security screen doors made from perforated aluminium for strength, airflow, insect protection and added privacy.

Like all of Prowler Proof’s products it can be manufactured and installed on your house in as little as 1-2 weeks from order date, no waiting around.

Smart security with strength, airflow and added privacy

Protec is best suited to homeowners who want a strong security door with a layer of privacy (easy to see out in direction of light, harder to see in). The perforated aluminium sheet allows airflow, daylight and outward visibility, while also creating a more private feel from the street.

With toughened welded corners, a durable powder coated finish and Australian factory-controlled manufacturing, Protec is designed for homes where security, durability and everyday practicality all matter.

Strength begins at the corners

One of Prowler Proof’s strongest points of difference is the way the frame is built. Protec frames are welded before powder coating, helping create a cleaner finish and a stronger, more durable security screen.

Toughened Welded Corners

Unlike conventional mitred frames secured with screws or rivets, Prowler Proof frames are welded into a seamless structure before powder coating. The result is a stronger, cleaner-looking frame designed for lasting performance.

  • Welded rather than assembled with screws or rivets.
  • Joined into one continuous frame structure.
  • Powder coated after welding for a seamless finish.
  • Fewer potential weak points and corrosion risks.
  • Cleaner appearance across hinged and sliding door openings.

Premium construction and materials

Protec’s strength and durability come from its all-aluminium construction, perforated mesh design, welded frame structure and high-quality powder coated finish.

Single Aluminium Sheet

Protec is made from a single sheet of perforated aluminium, giving the screen strength, rigidity and a more private appearance.

Choose Protec when security, privacy and airflow all matter

Protec may be the right choice if you want a strong security door with a more private appearance than fine mesh, while still allowing light and airflow through the home.

  • You want a strong perforated aluminium security screen.
  • You prefer a little more privacy from the street.
  • You want airflow and insect protection without a fully open mesh look.
  • You want hinged, sliding or matching window screen options.
  • You value welded corners, powder coating and Prowler Proof manufacturing.

If maximum visibility is the priority, ForceField may be the better fit. If decorative styling or a different budget level is more important, Diamond or Heritage may also be worth considering.
