Independently Tested for the Ultimate Peace of Mind.
Invisi-Gard security doors and window screens passed all AS tests with flying colours. The Australian Standards require the following tests to be performed.
Knife Shear Test
As its name suggests, the Knife Shear Test is designed to test the strength of the security mesh.
The Knife Shear Test involves applying mechanical force with a heavy duty knife to the security mesh being tested. This is carried out three times with a new blade for each.
In order to pass the Knife Shear Test, the mesh must not allow the blade to make an incision greater than 150mm.
Impact Test
Invisi-Gard easily meets this requirement and can resist in excess of 50 consecutive impacts, each of 100 Joules without failure.
Invisi-Gard passes because of our Patented EGP Retention System which runs around four sides of the screen. This Patented retention system resists the tendency of the mesh to be pulled out of the frame.
Invisi-Gard shows its strength by withstanding a 4kg block of hardwood fired at a speed of 20 meters per second.
Jemmy Test
The Jemmy Test involves wedging a lever between the security door lock and hinge and the door frame to which the security screen is mounted.
A mechanical winch is used in an attempt to pry the door open.
In order to pass the Jemmy Test, the security door must remain securely closed.
Invisi-Gard’s security doors and windows passed this AS test with ease.
