Why 5052 Aluminium

5052 is the marine grade aluminium alloy, chosen for its corrosion resistance and its ability to be formed and perforated without cracking. At 1.8mm this sheet is substantially more rigid than standard flyscreen grades, and significantly lighter than an equivalent steel sheet – which makes it easier to handle on large openings and puts less load on the frame.

Applications

• Security screen doors and window screens
• Privacy screens and balustrade infill
• Sun screens and shading panels
• Decorative wall panels and ceiling features
• Cabinet, equipment and plant room ventilation
• Gates, fences and enclosure infill

Available Sizes – Perforated Aluminium Security Mesh

Stocked in eight sheet sizes. Single sheets are available for pickup from Sunshine West VIC. For delivery, perforated aluminium ships flat in its original wrapped pack, which is what protects the faces and edges in transit. The size on this page is shown in bold.

Standards

Manufactured to the mesh specification used in security screen systems tested to AS 5039. Compliance with AS 5039 applies to the complete framed assembly – mesh, frame, fixings and retention method – and must be verified for the finished system. This product is sold as mesh only.

With a 2mm aperture, this sheet meets the maximum 2mm aperture AS 3959 specifies for bushfire screening. Aluminium mesh is accepted under AS 3959 for bushfire rated screening up to BAL-29 when installed in a compliant frame and assembly. For BAL-40 and BAL-FZ, AS 3959 requires corrosion resistant steel or bronze – use our 316 stainless steel security mesh for those applications.

Fixing

Retained in the frame channel with aluminium beading to suit 1.8mm sheet – also known as a security mesh wedge. Suits a standard 70mm door frame, sold separately in 3 metre lengths, and screwed or riveted into place.

Pickup Only – Single Sheets

This listing is for collection from our Sunshine West VIC warehouse, with 24 hours notice. Buy a single sheet or any quantity you need – there is no minimum on pickup.

For delivery, see the delivered listing for this size. Perforated aluminium is rigid and cannot be rolled, so it ships flat in its original wrapped pack of 4 sheets, which is what protects the faces and edges in transit.
