Security Barrier Systems

Unlike many security barrier systems currently available on the market Australian Trellis Door Co’s (ATDC™) security scissor gates fold back out of the way when not in use behind curtains or blinds to 15% of their expanded size making them almost invisible. At night they provide a strong and formidable barrier to burglars.

When locked and closed ATDC’s residential security scissor doors allow maximum daylight to filter into the room they are securing as well as permitting the free flow of fresh air and ventilation, keeping the room light, fresh, bright and breezy.

 

Residential Security Doors – Maximum Strength

Precision engineered from either toughened steel or marine grade aluminium, ATDC’s extensive range of residential security scissor doors have multi-point locking options, full frames for maximum strength and rivets constructed from either brass or stainless steel providing that extra reassurance of strength and resistance to an external force or impact.

ATDC’s top of the range S03™ heavy duty scissor door is the only security scissor gate on the Australian market which complies with the relevant Australian Standards for sliding security doors. Discover more about this product, including specifications and images.

Where Can I Buy Security Doors?

Security door providers are a dime a dozen in the current market, but not all companies are built the same. With a multitude of options available, it can be difficult to find a reputable supplier that you feel comfortable with.

Luckily, the team at The Australian Trellis Door Company™ have put together this article to help you navigate the pool of potential competitors. By following a few simple steps, you’ll be able to find your perfect match, putting you well on the way to safeguarding your home or business.

 

Can You Search Online for Security Door Companies?

The first step in your search for a security door should be a detailed Google search. You shouldn’t just look for the first company that pops up on your search, but rather you should dig deep into forums, websites and review sites. Gathering information from as many sources as possible will help make your decision easier in the long run. Search for companies with a good reputation, a strong financial standing and an impressive warranty that you can rely on. This will help you make a great final decision.

 

Is it Worth Visiting Security Door Company Showrooms?

You can narrow down your search using Google, but nothing beats physically visiting showrooms. By visiting various showrooms and assembly plants, you’ll start to get an idea of how companies operate and just what they have to offer.

You want to look for successful manufacturers that produce great products and deliver friendly customer service. Serious security door companies should be prepared and ready to show visitors around their showroom, providing a great atmosphere for potential customers.

At The Australian Trellis Door Company™, we always ensure that visitors walk away with a wealth of knowledge about our products and our company culture.

 

How Do You Look for Established Security Door Companies?

Turn away from the typical “one-man shows” that the security industry has become renowned for. These shady operators have garnered a poor reputation in industry circles for bad workmanship and questionable business practices. We cannot stress enough that it is always advisable to choose a well-known, well-trusted security door and screen manufacturer.

Try to find companies that have been in business longer than the warranty on their products. These companies are more likely to be dependable and legitimate than newer, unknown companies.
