Peace of Mind
Sometimes, flyscreens just aren’t strong enough to provide the kind of protection homeowners are looking for in their doors and windows. BasiX’s stainless 0.7mm, 316 woven wire mesh offers a powerful and affordable alternative to more expensive screen options, while still delivering the peace of mind that your home will be safe from intruders or unwelcome guests.
Child Safety
BasiX is a fall prevention screen that does away with the fear of falling accidents occurring from windows higher than ground level. And while you can’t put a price on such assurance, BasiX comes at an affordable price to make it as easy as possible to protect your loved ones.
So, if you’re thinking about removing those obtrusive window opening restrictors but want to ensure your building is code compliant, or you want to sleep easy at night knowing your family will be doing the same, then BasiX from Starline Security has you covered.
BasiX complies with the Kids don’t Fly building code, meaning your home or business will meet all the standards and regulations required for it to be considered a safe place. Why worry about the safety of your multi-level home when BasiX can guarantee reassurance?
BasiX ticks this box, while offering a more practical and visually pleasant alternative to window restrictors.
BasiX screens help reverse Climate Change
It’s true! By installing Fall Prevention screens such as BasiX into your home, you’ll increase cooler airflow through your doors and windows, resulting in a behavioural change that reduces the use of air conditioning. You won’t even know you’re doing it.
When your power bill goes down so will your home’s emission of harmful greenhouse gases. We’ve even written an article on how our screens can help reverse climate change.
Give it a read to discover how BasiX and other screens from Starline Security are the environmentally friendly way to secure your home.
Ventilation and Mould Prevention
Room ventilation is extremely important. Not only does good airflow improve a room’s temperature and odour, but it also greatly reduces the chance of mould or mildew forming. BasiX screens have the best ventilation out of our grilleless screens ensuring maximum ventilation. We have discovered how helpful this is in reducing mould formation.
Southern facing units are particularly prone to mould forming if there is inadequate airflow coming through the doors and windows. BasiX is an ideal solution to this problem, helping reduce the risk of harmful mould or mildew building up overnight.
WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT BASIX SCREENS
Safety & Barrier Protection
BasiX is available in safety or barrier grades for windows, sliding doors and hinged doors. This means the screen can be customised to match the level of protection you require. For more information on the different screen and door grades, visit our article going into detail about what specifies each grade.
Price Affordability
Safety shouldn’t have to be expensive, and fortunately, BasiX is one of our most affordable safety screens.
The list of amazing benefits makes it incredible that this product remains as cheap as it is, so if you live in a multi-storey building and want to ensure the safety of yourself and your family, then BasiX makes that wish believable thanks to its price affordability.

The combination of a strong frame and the stainless woven mesh means that BasiX will last longer than most other safety screens.
Furthermore, it is highly scratch resistant, so any pet owners won’t have to worry about their cats or dogs tearing up their safety screen.
BasiX is the perfect choice for any parents or pet owners wanting to keep their loved ones safe.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can they be used on both windows and doors?
This screen is highly versatile and can be fitted to a wide range of applications including hinged doors, sliding doors, fixed windows and even fire exits. Whether you’re securing a child’s bedroom window, a high rise balcony door or looking to add extra protection to a multi-level office building, BasiX can be tailored to fit perfectly.
Are BasiX screens compliant with child safety standards?
This product is fully compliant with the “Kids Don’t Fly” building code and tested to meet AS 5203:2016 which is the national standard for fall prevention in openable windows. This makes it the ideal choice for families living in multi-storey homes or apartments who want to remove bulky window restrictors without compromising safety. With BasiX installed, you can open your windows freely for ventilation while knowing your children are protected.
How do they improve ventilation compared to other safety solutions?
Unlike window restrictors that limit how far a window can open, BasiX allows you to fully open windows and doors while maintaining safety compliance. The fine stainless steel mesh maximises airflow, creating a cooler and fresher indoor environment. This not only helps reduce reliance on air conditioning but also prevents damp and stale air from building up. It has some of the best ventilation of all our grilleless screens, making it an excellent choice for reducing the risk of mould and mildew, especially in southern facing rooms that get less sunlight.
Does installing it really help reduce energy use?
Yes, and it’s one of the lesser known benefits of our screens. By allowing better airflow throughout the home it encourages a natural cooling effect. Many homeowners find they use their air conditioning less often, which lowers energy bills and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. In this way, choosing BasiX is not only good for safety but also for the environment.
How durable is the mesh?
The 316 marine grade stainless steel mesh is built to withstand tough conditions. It is highly resistant to corrosion even in coastal areas, and won’t easily stretch or tear under pressure. It’s also scratch-resistant, which is a big plus for pet owners worried about cats or dogs clawing at their screens. Combined with a strong aluminium frame, these screens are built to last for years while maintaining both strength and appearance.
Can I customise BasiX to match my home?
There’s a wide range of colour options available and it can be paired with different accessories to suit your lifestyle. From powder coated frames to match your existing décor, to add ons like pet doors, hopper hatches, midrails, hinges and various lock options, allowing it to be tailored to suit both aesthetic and functional needs.
I’m an installer. How can I start offering BasiX to my customers?
If you’re a professional installer looking to expand your product range, becoming a Starline Security dealer gives you access to BasiX and our full range of products. We make it easy with an innovative online ordering portal that allows you to generate quotes, place bulk orders and access resources all in one place.
