When it comes to home security, most of us focus on the ground level—doors, fences, and easily accessible windows. But second-storey windows are just as vulnerable and leaving them unsecured can create a weak spot in your property’s defences. A secure home should encompass every aspect, and that includes protecting upper levels. If you’re looking for a proven way to safeguard your windows without compromising on style or functionality, Crimsafe screens are the standout solution.
Discover how these high-performance screens not only enhance security but also provide a wide range of practical benefits. And with trusted local experts like North Coast Blinds & Security on the Sunshine Coast, getting professionally installed Crimsafe screens has never been easier.
What Are Crimsafe Screens?
Crimsafe screens are robust security screens designed to protect your home more effectively than standard options. Using patented Tensile-Tuff® stainless steel mesh, Crimsafe screens are built to withstand significant impacts, earning them a reputation for unrivalled strength and durability.
Unlike traditional window bars or unsightly grills, Crimsafe screens combine security with aesthetics, offering a sleek, modern appearance that complements any home style. They’re designed to blend in, not stick out—and they work seamlessly on all types of openings, from ground-floor sliding doors to second-storey windows.
If you’re serious about keeping intruders at bay, it’s hard to ignore the added layer of protection Crimsafe brings.
Why Choose Crimsafe Screens for Second-Storey Windows?
Second-storey windows present unique security challenges. Many people assume upper-storey windows are less at risk due to their height, but this sense of security can be misleading. Opportunistic intruders often look for ladders, outdoor furniture, or overhanging trees to gain access.
Here’s why Crimsafe screens are a particularly smart investment for second-storey windows:
- Unmatched Security: Crimsafe’s patented mesh and screw-clamp system make it virtually impossible for intruders to penetrate, even with common break-in tools.
- Fall Prevention: For families with children, Crimsafe doubles as a safety feature, reducing the risk of accidents without obstructing views.
- Improved Airflow: With Crimsafe on your windows, you can enjoy fresh breezes without worrying about your home’s safety.
- Peace of Mind: Whether you’re upstairs sleeping or away on holiday, knowing all windows are secure no matter their height—reduces overall security stress.
Features and Benefits of Crimsafe Screens
What sets Crimsafe apart from other security solutions is its unique features, specifically designed with performance and versatility in mind.
Strength and Durability
The stainless-steel mesh used in Crimsafe screens undergoes rigorous testing to withstand heavy impacts, including knife attacks and blunt force. These screens meet Australian standards for security strength and then surpass them.
Energy Efficiency
Crimsafe screens don’t just keep your home safe, they also help cut energy costs. The mesh reduces solar heat by up to 53% and blocks nearly all UV light, keeping interiors cooler in summer and protecting furniture from sun damage.
Multi-Functionality
Crimsafe screens double as insect screens, keeping bugs out without compromising ventilation. This 2-in-1 functionality makes them a practical addition to any home.
Weather Protection
Living on the Sunshine Coast means occasional storms. Crimsafe’s robust design provides additional protection against flying debris during severe weather.
Aesthetic Design
Security no longer has to look bulky or industrial. Crimsafe screens are designed with clean lines, ensuring they don’t clash with your home’s design. Their discreet yet striking aesthetic is a selling point for homeowners who value appearance as much as function.
The Crimsafe Installation Process
Proper installation is critical to maximising the effectiveness of Crimsafe screens. That’s where North Coast Blinds & Security steps in.
Why Professional Installation Matters
Amateur installations or DIY attempts can compromise security, leaving gaps or loosened fittings that weaken the screen and more importantly, can void any warranty. North Coast Blinds & Security’s qualified experts ensure every Crimsafe screen is perfectly measured, cut, and secured to fit—because your safety depends on it.
Seamless Installation
The process begins with an in-home consultation to assess your needs and recommend the best options for your home. After manufacturing your screen to precise specifications, trained technicians carry out the installation, paying close attention to detail and quality control.
Choosing North Coast Blinds & Security guarantees that your Crimsafe screens are installed right the first time, giving you full confidence in their protection.

Frame Colours & Styles
Crimsafe frames come in various colours and finishes, allowing you to match them seamlessly to your existing window frames or overall aesthetic.
