Security Screens / Estates and Private Complexes
Homes in private estates need security that respects the architecture. Slimline black-framed security and insect screens protect full-height openings without bars, without shrinking the view, and without changing the face of the home.

The whole point of an estate home is the boundary you don’t see. Security should work the same way.
“On an estate home the screen has to earn its place twice: it has to stop what should stay out, and it has to vanish into the architecture while doing it.”Duncan Kane Founder, Custom Blinds
Custom Blinds fitted a complete home in Pezula Private Estate, Knysna, with Corner Star security and insect screens. Every major opening was screened: full-height sliding mesh panels across the patio openings, hinged mesh doors at the bedroom decks, and slatted screen panels that fold back against the facade when not in use.
The mesh reads as a light tint from inside. The forest view stays.

Estates control what a home may look like from the street, and owners buy into that control for a reason. Burglar bars and bulky gates fight the aesthetic. Mesh screens secure the same openings while presenting a clean black frame that reads as part of the joinery. From inside, the 0.9mm SS316 stainless steel mesh is transparent enough to keep the view; from outside it resists cutting, prying and sustained force. The same screens carry fine insect mesh duty, so doors stay open on summer evenings without trading security for airflow.
Garden Route estates border forest and fynbos, and that means baboons and monkeys. The same mesh and reinforced frame that resist forced entry also resist wildlife, which is why these screens are installed in baboon-active areas across Knysna, including Pezula.
At the Pezula installation, security and insect screening are handled by one coordinated system rather than two competing products layered over each other. Openings stay usable: panels slide, hinge or fold depending on how each room meets its deck.

Estate rules differ, so confirm with your homeowners association. Screens are generally well received because they present a slim black frame instead of visible bars. At the Pezula installation the frames were matched to the home’s existing steel-framed openings so the screens read as part of the original architecture.
Yes. At the Pezula Private Estate installation, Corner Star security screens and insect screens work as one coordinated system across the home. Doors and sliders stay usable, airflow is kept, and the openings remain secured without stacking two separate products over each other.
