Security Doors
and Gates
The iron security door is a relatively
modern addition to residential
architecture, due to the need for
increased security in large cities.
Traditionally, older homes like Victorian
terraces and Federation homes never
had security doors when they were
built. Therefore, placing a security door
in front of the original timber/glass door
can present a difficult design challenge.
The challenge is to make both doors
complement each other and the
building and for the security door to
look architecturally correct when the
timber door is both open and closed.
Many beautiful, original doorways have
been ruined by the use of badly
designed security doors.
JB Wrought Iron only supplies security
doors that are custom designed for the
doorway, which often entails providing
a number of hand drawn concept
sketches in the design process. While
adding some cost to the product, good
design saves money by not devaluing
the property.
Our security doors can be fitted with
virtually any lock or door furniture
available and we also take care of
automatic door closers, access controls
and insect screening.
