What are some tips for Security Door and Screen Colours?
When installing security doors and screens, most people tend to just copy the colour of their existing door. However, to truly maximise both the aesthetics and effectiveness of your security door/screen. It’s important to look at it’s surrounding objects. This can include parts of the door such as hinges or colour framing of windows surrounding the door.
The standard colour range varies for security door frame colours however, typically you can get a colour match between the door and surrounding objects which can work effectively to maximise the aesthetic look and the operational usage of the security door/screen.
This is because having the security door/screen blend into the surrounding colours makes it more effective as it makes it a less visible colour to potential intruders. However, if effectiveness is less of a concern and aesthetics is more of a priority, you could also select colours that contrast with surrounding objects, such as a white security door because you have black window frames.
Clearview Security can accommodate many different settings and offer the highest quality security doors and screens in Perth.
What Types of Colours and Finishes are There?
Now you know what to look for when selecting a colour for your new security door/security screen door. What colours and finishes are actually available?
Anodic Finish
Choosing an anodic finish means you’re looking for a metallic-style lasting coating. The colour range for this finish is somewhat limited however, it uses some of the most standard colours for doors and frames such as Dark Grey and Pearl White.
It will retain its true colours over time due to its resistance to rusting and scratches. Clearview Security offers 6 different colours in this finish.
Excel Finish
An excel finish is a powder coated finish. It keeps it well protected from bad weather and rust while being low maintenance, making it convenient for home-owners who wish to not worry about the finish wearing off. It has a wide range of colours such as woodland grey but most importantly, offers a black charcoal finish which notably is missing if you choose an anodic finish.
Making an excel finish more desirable for some. Clearview Security offers over 30 colours with this finish allowing for a wide selection for your new security screen doors.
Living Finish
The living finish is a premium option out of the three finishes as it naturally changes colour over time. This choice compliments well with older looking antique types of builds going for a wood effect.
The colour range is relatively expansive with Clearview Security offering 24 different options. If you’re looking for an alternative from an excel powder finish and something more natural, the living finish is the option for you.
Colour Options
Based on the finish you choose, your choice in colour is somewhat dictated. Typically the colours will look brightest with an excel finish if you’re looking for a bold display such as Manor Red or Charcoal Black.
An anodic finish will make the colour look fairly shiny due to the metallic finish. The majority of these options are a subshade of grey which may work for the aesthetics of some homes but not all. Lastly, living colours are the dullest of the three finishes which is intended as it looks to blend with the look of older antique-looking houses.
