Both fly screen doors and fly screen windows are staples in Australian households. While their biggest benefit (and the source of their name) is pest protection, fly screen windows and doors are advantageous in many ways. Queensland’s hot, muggy summers provide a fertile breeding ground for insects, and the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads region is no exception. Fly screen windows on the Gold Coast help you keep your home comfortable throughout the year, especially in the warmer months.
For more than 35 years, Goldco® Security has been supplying security screens to homeowners on the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads region. Finding the right screen for your doors and windows is important for protecting your home from both insects and intruders.
This is Goldco® Security’s guide to fly screen windows on the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads region, and the benefits they bring to your home and your family.
The benefits of fly screen windows on the Gold Coast
Fly screens in all forms provide a solid first line of defence against pests trying to enter your home. Yet while doors need to be constantly opened and shut, giving insects a chance to slip inside, windows are fixed in place and provide permanent, stable barriers. The advantages of fly screen windows on the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads region include:
Pest protection
From beaches to canals to lakes, the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads region has a vast number of waterways where insects such as midges, mosquitoes and sandflies rapidly breed during the hotter months. Fly screen windows on the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads region assist stop pests from entering your home to spread germs or bacteria, damage your clothing and make your living space uncomfortable.
Natural lighting and airflow
Open windows allow fresh air and natural light into your home on hot days. Fly screen windows allow you to enjoy this peaceful experience without having to deal with the pests that try to access your house looking for food sources. In a region with summers as hot as the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads region, this makes your home a more relaxed and enjoyable place.
Savings
One of the lesser discussed benefits of fly screen windows is how much money they can help you save on your power bills. Being able to let fresh air and sunlight in through your open windows reduces your reliance on appliances such as air conditioners and artificial lights.
Health and hygiene
Fly screen windows prevent pests from getting in and causing allergies and infections. They also help reduce your use of harsh chemical sprays and keep common allergens like pollen out.
Privacy
Darker perforated meshes increase your level of privacy, especially during daylight hours. Goldco® Security’s Amplimesh® PrivacyGuard® security window screens combine protection from insects with a privacy focus that allows you to see out while limiting the vision of anyone standing outside.
Goldco® Security’s fly screen window range
Goldco® Security’s selection of fly screen windows on the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads region includes the following types of screens:
Fibreglass
The most affordable and widely available mesh type, fibreglass is flexible and resistant to cracks, dents and UV damage.
Midge mesh (micro mesh)
Weaved 60% tighter than regular fly screen, midge mesh is perfect for homes near waterways and canals. It keeps midges, one of the Gold Coast’s smallest yet most widespread intruders, out of your home.
Aluminium
A more rigid and durable option than fibreglass, aluminium will maintain its look over time and avoid sagging, particular in bushfire-prone areas
Stainless steel
Common in bushfire-prone areas, stainless steel is frequently considered the strongest mesh material for fly screens..
