***-BEFORE-***

These shots were taken on Wednesday 11th June 2008, the day Brett was given 'vacant possession'

The screens on these two doors were, in one word ... pathetic !!
They were a very basic door and offered no protection or security at all
In fact, they weren't even able to be locked !!
Brett also did not like their appearance
They had very wide frames with an even wider support across the centre of each door
He likes to watch television while sitting in the patio,
and this support happened to go right across the middle of the screen !!

Entrance to Bedroom One (Brett's) is on the left and the Lounge Room is on the right

Another look at the lounge room entrance
The view from inside - and the middle support across the door

***-AFTER-***

These shots were taken on Tuesday 16th September 2008

WOW !! ...... look at the difference !!
No centre support which gives an unobstructed view
and Brett can watch television from the patio as can be seen in the first photo below !!
Plus heaps of security ... with triple locks and numerous other features detailed below

What makes Prowler Proof products the best?
Over the last ten years Prowler Proof has invested heavily in technology and quality practices to ensure that all Prowler Proof products offer you the best in Quality, Strength, Reliability, Finish and Value
Quality
When we refer to quality at Prowler Proof, we refer to everything we do
Prowler Proof is the only manufacturer of security products who controls the entire manufacturing process from a state of the art production line in Queensland
Prowler Proof controls everything from the selection of raw materials, manufacturing techniques and robotic welding to in-house powder coating and distribution, in order to maintain our consistently high standard
Strength
All of Prowler Proof’s products are designed with strength as the critical component
The Prowler Proof product is at least ten times stronger than the industry standard
This has been achieved through Prowler Proof's diligent research and development into advanced manufacturing processes such as robotic welding and production automation
Reliability
The Prowler Proof product range is the only range of security products that are manufactured 100% in-house
This is to your advantage as you can purchase any of the Prowler Proof product range knowing that it is reliable and consistently manufactured to the same level of quality, no matter which of our distributors you choose to buy from
Finish
The finish of a Prowler Proof door or window screen is second to none as the seven-stage automatic powder coat line is continuously tested to ensure a superior, quality finish
As well, the frames of all Prowler Proof products have been designed to blend in with your existing doors and windows so as not to overpower them and our fully welded, seamless corners mean that you will never know where joins occur
Value
When it comes down to the bottom line, Prowler Proof uses advanced manufacturing processes to produce security products that are of a consistently higher quality than any other similar products in the industry
These efficient manufacturing techniques are passed on to you, the consumer, in the form of excellent value and product choice

Your peace of mind, guaranteed!!
Every Prowler Proof product comes with a Seven Year Warranty
This factory backed warranty ensures that all Prowler Proof doors and window screens are free from defects in workmanship and material under conditions of normal residential use from date of manufacture
Excluded from this warranty are accessory items fitted to the door or window screen such as; locks, handles, hinges, rollers, door closers etc
These accessory items are independently covered by warranties supplied by the relevant manufacturer

Other Screens - Front Entrances

As can be seen in the photo below, the two front entrances had diamond pattern security screens fitted
These are in very good condition and are lockable ... so they were left as they are

Other Screens - Two Bedrooms and Dining Room Windows

As with the patio doors above, the existing screens on these windows were, in one word ... pathetic !!
Made from plastic ... and a newborn baby would have been able to break his way in !!
The photos below show the 'before look' of the windows in Brett's bedroom,
and the same was used in the second bedroom and on the dining room window
The screen for the louvres was fixed inside ... and secured by clips ... again made from plastic !!

Below is the 'new look', again showing the windows in Brett's bedroom
and with screens in the diamond pattern similar to the front entrances
He arranged to have the louvre screens made in an exterior 'box-type' frame
and they look great as well as giving excellant security
He can now open the louvres without removing the old screens
... which, by the way, were thrown in the bin !!

NOTE - there is also something else in the shot below which is not in the one above
An airconditioner !! ... Brett has had a split system installed into each bedroom !!

The Supplier and Installer ... and the bill !!

Worth every Cent !!
