Where the money goes
Estimated breakdown for your configuration
Crimsafe is more than a flyscreen, the stainless mesh resists knife and jemmy attacks, which is why it costs several times a standard security screen. Pricing is per door and window.
Ways to save
- Do the whole house in one order, installers usually discount per screen on a larger job.
- Prioritise the doors and ground-floor windows, where security matters most, if budget is tight.

What a crimsafe costs in Melbourne
A Melbourne Crimsafe quote is built up opening by opening — how many doors and windows get a screen, how big each is, which grade of the stainless-steel mesh is chosen, and the fit — because the product is a security screen clamped into each opening's frame. Screening a single door is a small job and fitting out a whole home in a premium grade is a large one, so the count of openings, their size and the grade are what move the Melbourne price.
Melbourne's inner suburbs value security screens that keep the look of a Victorian or Edwardian period home while adding protection, and a fine stainless mesh suits a heritage window without blocking the light. The cold, frosty winter is no issue for the stainless screen. A screen door lets air through on a warm day while keeping the home secure. A certified security screen must meet the Australian security-screen standard with the right locks and fixings. Competitive labour just below Sydney's keeps it reasonable. Crimsafe is installed by a security-screen installer rather than a licensed building trade, so no building licence is required, though the certified screen must be fitted to its standard, in Victoria.
The screen is put up by a security-screen installer, not a licensed building trade, so no building licence applies, though as a certified screen it must be fitted to the security-screen standard, and any alarm or monitoring falls under state security licensing, in Victoria under Consumer Affairs. A Melbourne job prices from the number and size of openings, the product grade and the fit, suiting a period home where fine mesh keeps the light and the heritage look.
