Amplimesh StormGuard® is the ultimate in high-end security and cyclone screens, engineered to perform in Australia’s harshest cyclonic regions.

The Amplimesh StormGuard® screen system has been specifically designed to provide the ultimate in cyclonic impact performance, security and modern looks. At the centre of every Amplimesh StormGuard® screen is an ultra-high tensile Stainless steel mesh that offers exceptional strength and corrosion resistance without compromising on natural light and ventilation.

Amplimesh StormGuard® cyclone screens have been rigorously tested to meet and exceed the requirements of Australia’s highest wind regions, achieving impact results of up to 44m/s.

Amplimesh StormGuard® is available in various colours and application types, providing a corrosion-resistant, clean architectural look for all homeowners interested in securing their homes in cyclonic regions.

Technical specs

Produced with only the highest quality materials and rigorously tested at our NATA approved facility Amplimesh StormGuard® security screens are designed to withstand the harshest cyclonic regions.

Amplimesh StormGuard® cyclone screens have been specifically engineered to meet and exceed the requirements of Australia’s highest wind regions, achieving impact results of up to 44m/s. Amplimesh StormGuard® screens also offer unprecedented levels of security, exceeding the Australian standard by over 20 times.

Amplimesh Stormguard® security screens are assembled into a high-quality door and window frames using our Amplimesh® patented isolated screw clamp (ISC) System technology. The ISC system combines extreme wedge pressure, high friction materials, and custom-engineered screw clamps to efficiently absorb and disperse impact energy equally along the frame, ensuring every single mesh strand is secured.

Typical screw clamp systems screw through the mesh directly into an aluminium frame, increasing the chance of galvanic corrosion (electrolysis). Amplimesh StormGuard’s® ISC system uses stainless steel screws that bite into an engineered plastic retainer, completely isolating the screws from the frame.

StormGuard® heavy duty frames are extruded in “Structural Grade” aluminium 6061 T6.

The StormGuard® patented isolated screw clamp mesh retention system combines extreme wedge pressure, high friction materials, and custom engineered screw clamps to efficiently absorb and disperse impact energy equally along the frame ensuring every single mesh strand is secured.

Amplimesh StormGuard® screen doors are fitted with a multi-point locking system.

Care & maintenance

The finishes that are applied to Amplimesh® products are of high quality and are extremely durable and weather resistant. Like all fixtures around the home some maintenance is required to preserve the original appearance of the product.

The finishes that are applied to Amplimesh® products are of high quality and are extremely durable and weather resistant. Like all fixtures around the home, maintenance is required to preserve the original appearance of the product.

Surfaces should be kept clean by prompt removal of all dust, dirt, grime and any foreign matter using a soft sponge with clean water and a small amount of mild detergent. Thoroughly wash off any residue of detergent with clean water.

Do not under any circumstances use an abrasive cleaning agent (Ajax or similar) or cleaning material (such as steel wool).

If small scratches occur, they can be buffed out using a good quality car polish.

Frequency of cleaning is largely dependent on the location of the building. In most circumstances, cleaning may be carried out every 3-4 months.

Amplimesh® products installed close to more severe conditions, such as marine or industrial environments, should be cleaned every 2-4 weeks.

To maintain an ultra-clear view through your security screens, we recommend using our Amplimesh® Organic Security Door & Screen Cleaner, available through your local Amplimesh® Dealer.

Warranty information

We’re so sure of the quality of our Amplimesh StormGuard® security products that we’ve backed them by a comprehensive 16 year warranty.

As with all commercial warranties, your Amplimesh® security doors must be cared for with regular cleaning and maintenance. Giving your security screen doors a little love and attention every few months will not only maintain your warranty but will keep your screen looking great and performing at maximum efficiency.
