Keeping your family safe shouldn’t mean compromising on airflow, natural light or the look of your home. BasiX Fall Prevention Screens are a smart, affordable solution designed to reduce the risk of falls from windows, especially in multi-storey homes and apartments. At Enhanced Security & Shutters, we supply and install BasiX screens across the Gold Coast and Logan area, helping families meet safety requirements while maintaining a modern, open feel throughout their home.
What AreBasiX Fall Prevention Screens?
BasiX screens are purpose built fall prevention window screens that act as a strong barrier across openable windows. They’re designed to prevent accidental falls without fully enclosing the space or blocking ventilation, and are ideal for homes with young children, rental properties, apartments, and buildings where windows are positioned above ground level. They are compliant with Australian fall-prevention standards and align with “Kids Don’t Fly” safety requirements, giving you peace of mind without turning your windows into cages.
Built for Safety, Designed for Everyday Living
These screens are manufactured using 0.7mm 316 marine-grade stainless steel woven mesh, making them strong, durable, and suitable for coastal conditions. This premium material offers excellent resistance to corrosion, scratching and general wear making them perfect for homes on the Gold Coast where salt air and humidity are a constant factor.
Despite their strength, the mesh features a high open area, allowing fresh air and natural light to flow freely. You still get breezes, visibility, and comfort just with an added layer of protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can windows still be opened fully with BasiX screens installed?
In most cases, yes. The screens are designed to allow normal window operation while still providing a protective barrier. During our measure, we assess how each window opens and make sure the final setup works safely and practically for everyday use.
Can these screens be installed on older or existing windows?
Yes, and because they are custom made, they can be fitted to most existing window frames, including older homes and apartments. During the onsite measure, we’ll check frame condition and confirm the best fixing method to ensure a secure installation.
How long does installation usually take for these screens?
Once your screens are manufactured, installation is typically straightforward and completed in a single visit. For most homes, the process is quick and minimally disruptive, although we’ll always give you a clear timeframe beforehand so you know exactly what to expect.
How do I know if my home actually needs fall prevention screens?
If you have windows positioned above ground level, especially in bedrooms, living areas, or stairwells then it’s certainly well worth considering. We assess your home during the measure and will be upfront if certain windows don’t require fall prevention, so you’re never paying for unnecessary installations.
