Prowler Proof Protec is smart security.
It’s built in our hi-tech factory as an all-aluminium design with Prowler Proof’s famous welded, seamless corners. The mesh is a single aluminium sheet, perforated and powder coated to the high standards you’d expect from Prowler Proof. The perforations are exactly the right size – small enough to keep insects out, big enough to allow excellent airflow and transparency. The mesh is joined to the heavy duty aluminium frame in a process unique to Prowler Proof. Protec is one of Australia’s strongest and best looking security screens. The frame comes in over 300 colours to suit the black mesh. If you’re looking for smart security, you can’t go past Protec…

Learn moreThe National Construction Code (NCC) requires that window openings be either restricted or screened, in certain circumstances, to prevent children falling.
