Is the Balcony Safety Grill Children or Pet-Friendly?

While there are plenty of balcony safety grills to choose from in the market, selecting the right safety grill for your balcony can be difficult. After all, they can provide maximum security to your family, especially your children and pets, while giving you the best views of your surroundings.

When looking for a balcony safety grill, you will need to ensure that it is child-friendly and pet-friendly. They also come in many different shapes and sizes, so there is one for every type of home. Some balconies require more protection than others, depending on their size and shape.

As such, it is imperative that they are installed properly and securely so that they can prevent children and pets from falling off the balcony. That said, here are some things that make the invisible safety grill the perfect choice for your household.

1. The space between the cable

When you install a balcony safety grill, there are various components that come with it to keep the cables in place. One such component is called the “Frame”, which is designed to hold the stainless steel cable to the desired cable width.

At KLIG, we install the stainless steel cable with a gap between them at 2 inches instead of 3-4 inches. This is because a toddler of 3-5 years old has a head width of 5.5 inches while an adult cat has a body width of 3.5 inches. Hence, having a balcony grill installed with a 2-inch gap is the safest option for your home.

2. The durability

Having an invisible balcony grill installed at your balcony may seem like it can break under a lot of pressure but one single cable is tested and proven to be able to withstand a force up to 250kg before breaking. Just 10 of the cables together can withstand up to a force of 2.5 tonnes.

Besides, once your balcony safety grill is installed, it will not be easy to remove because it’s made from a solid material. This means that your pets may fiddle with the balcony grill but they won’t be able to remove them from their place.

3. The material

Balcony safety grills are generally made from one of the most robust metals that will not rust, which is stainless steel grade 316 and above. At KLIG, we use premium anti-rust 316L stainless steel cables for the grill.

Bear in mind that this stainless steel 316L cable is commonly used in outdoor construction and marine projects. It’s also not prone to rusting or corrosion. If there is a formation of rust, there is a danger of your child or pet licking the rusted material because they tend to put everything they find into their mouths. For added safety, the cables are coated with nylon or NanoTetra coating to ensure that they’re not only safe for your children but also your pets.

4. The ability to incorporate an alarm system

Like any other safety grill, you can incorporate an alarm system on your balcony safety grill. This is especially beneficial when you have to leave your child or pets alone at home without the supervision of an adult. Should there be an intruder in your home, the alarm system will go off and possibly alert your neighbours.

Another good thing about the balcony safety grill is that it can appear invisible when viewed from afar. As such, the intruder will not be able to notice them, allowing your security cameras to take a good shot of the intruder.

In a nutshell, the points above highlight why having a balcony safety grill at home is the best option if you have children and/or pets. If you’re looking to install an invisible grille at your place, consider contacting KLIG as we offer a free on-site consultation before you make your decision.

Is Invisible Safety Grill Really Safe for Your Family Members?

Nowadays, having an invisible safety grill installed at home is becoming a necessity for many homeowners, especially those living in high-rise buildings. It is designed to protect your family members from falling out the window or balcony by providing a protective barrier on the window sill.

That said, the invisible safety grill is yet another innovation in this field that you may want to consider as an alternative to the conventional safety grill. This will ensure that the view outside your house isn’t obstructed by any bars or grids.

However, is it really safe for your family members? Will it be able to withstand Malaysia’s unrelenting weather conditions? Is it long-lasting? Well, here are some tips for you to know whether having an invisible safety grill is safe for your household.

1. Compare the designs available

Compared to the conventional safety grill, invisible safety grill come in different designs, whereby they can be arranged horizontally or vertically, depending on your preference. If you have children and/or pets at home, a vertical invisible grill is more secure than a horizontally-installed invisible grill as horizontally-installed grill act like “stairs” for children or your pet to climb.

That said, in order to choose the best invisible safety grill for your home, you should compare all the designs available. This will help you determine the best form of protective barrier and how safe is it for your household. If you’re unsure, you can consult a professional invisible safety grille provider like KLIG.

2. Choose the materials wisely

An invisible safety grill may appear vulnerable to breakage due to its thin appearance, but the thin mesh wires that run across the grill are made of extremely strong stainless steel that is commonly used in construction and marine projects. This makes it impossible to break these wires by human force.

With higher resistance to corrosion, chemical, and rust, the wires are built with incredible elasticity and high tension to provide optimum safety and sturdiness. This means you will likely need a tool that can cut through the invisible wires. This combined with the strength and sturdiness means they can withstand a force of 250kg.

3. Ensure the gap distance

There could be option for you to install 3-4 inches gap in the market. However, one important note is the gap must not be large enough for a child or pet to easily slide through. Children’s head width diameter is about 5.5 inches for age between 3 to 5 years old. An adult cat has a body width of 3.5 inches. We designed it to be having 2 inches distance between cables to reduce the risk of the gap for being too large. Or else, what is the point of having a invisible safety grille at home?

4. Select an appropriate diameter

Like the conventional safety grill, you can install an invisible safety grill with varying diameters for different installation sites such as the balcony and window. For instance, you should select a larger diameter of invisible safety grill for the balcony as it can prevent intruders from entering your home. At the same time, it can prevent unwanted mishaps. However, larger diameter of the cable grill is more rigid and less flexible compared to the smaller diameter cable. KLIG will propose a cable diameter of 2mm that is strong enough to withstand 250kg for each cable, yet not as rigid as the higher diameter cable.

In addition, installing an invisible grill with an appropriate diameter can hold against pressure more effectively than your conventional safety grill. So, make sure you select the right material with the right diameter. This will ensure the safety and security of your household.

5. Additional feature

As with most safety grills that can have an additional feature, an invisible safety grill can be integrated with a built-in alarm system for total home security to prevent any criminal activities around your house. Plus, the system can be activated when someone tries to break or damage your invisible safety grill.

The alarm system can also be connected to your existing security system so that you can easily monitor your house wherever you are. This feature is highly beneficial if you want to make full use of the invisible safety grill.

6. Experience of the supplier

When you choose a supplier to install your invisible safety grill, you will need to consider its reputation along with its expertise. A well-established supplier will have gained many years of experience under their belt. This also means the supplier pays great attention to the quality of its services.

You also need to evaluate the product quality when selecting a supplier. Some will use quality materials for your invisible safety grill, while some may use low-quality materials that will not provide the desired security level.

In conclusion, having an invisible safety grill at home is generally safe for your family members. Besides, you get to ensure the safety of your loved ones while you’re not around or away on a business trip.

If you’re looking to install an invisible grille at your place, consider contacting KLIG as we offer a free on-site consultation before you make your decision. For more information, contact us at 018-2072120 or email support@klig.my.

Factors Affecting Invisible Modern Grille Price in Malaysia

The concept of invisible grilles for windows is gaining popularity in Malaysia, not only for the attractive looks they provide but also for their ability to integrate with other safety features such as an alarm system. As such, this modern grille system improves with each passing year along with its quality.

If you’re in the market to install an invisible grille for your window and you’re worried about the cost, this article is for you as we discover some of the factors that affect the installation price of an invisible safety grille for your window. To gain a thorough understanding of the costs, you must first comprehend the many designs available on the market.

1 : Area for installing invisible grilles

When it comes to installing invisible modern grilles at various areas of your home, you will have to contact the supplier to visit your intended installation site and give a quotation. If it’s a minor installation project, the invisible modern grille price will be higher due to the small sample size. On the contrary, the cost of a major invisible modern grille installation project will be much lower.

Having said that, the invisible modern grille price per square foot for a window is higher than the balcony due to the smaller installation size. Even so, the quotation can vary with the designs, materials, and style of the grilles.

2 : Design and material of the invisible grille

Some invisible safety grille designs that require customisation will cost more. For instance, a curved balcony will require extra workmanship and time. Material wise, some suppliers provide only 306 stainless steel or lower grade stainless steel, which is suitable for indoor installation.

At KLIG, we use 316L stainless steel, the same standard of stainless steel that is used in construction and marine projects. This makes it suitable for an invisible safety grille installation in Malaysia’s unrelenting weather.

On top of that, we offer an outer nano-coating that can protect the 316L cable while preventing injury, especially among children who accidentally have some friction with the cable. Other customisations include the frame colour and additional site necessary for the frame.

3 : Integrated alarm system

Having an integrated alarm system will significantly affect the price of an invisible safety grille in Malaysia. After all, it tends to cost more than not having any alarm system for your home. That said, when you engage us for our invisible grille installation, we have an alarm system that can be triggered by the sensor if anyone applies unnecessary force on the cable.

The sensor will sense that the cable should stay within a certain tensile level. If the sensor senses that there’s more tension than a certain threshold or lower tension, it will trigger the alarm. This enhanced security will certainly increase the cost of your invisible grille installation.

4 : Reviews and recommendation of the supplier

Some invisible grille suppliers build on their product and service quality while some build on maintaining good customer relations. Either way, most invisible modern grille suppliers can offer various types of promotional benefits and discounts to their first-time customers, to make it more satisfying and affordable for them.

Before you purchase an invisible modern grille installation package, make sure to check out the customer reviews on their website and/or social media sites. This will give you some insight into their product and service quality.

5 : Location of your home

Your home location can affect the cost of installing invisible grilles. As KLIG usually covers the Klang Valley, any location that’s outside the 30km radius from Cheras will cost a lot more than usual due to logistic costs.

So, during your search for the best price and quality of an invisible grille, it’s best to compare the quotations provided by various invisible grille suppliers. Not only do you get to enhance the security of your home, but you also get to increase the market value of your home in Malaysia. Looking to install an invisible safety grille at your place?

Tips to Buying the Best Invisible Safety Grille for Your Window

Nowadays, invisible grilles are commonly used to secure small children and pets in high-rise buildings. For safety purposes, an invisible grille is a fantastic option. It is primarily intended to improve the indoor and outdoor décor of your home so that you can safely enjoy a clear view of your surroundings.

Having said that, finding and purchasing the best invisible safety grille for your window requires you to invest some of your time and effort. Don’t fret; we’re here to help. Keep reading as we discover some of the tips for buying the best invisible grille for your home.

It’s so much easier to do your research today with the help of the internet because you get to shortlist the names of invisible window grille suppliers in Malaysia without leaving the house. This will help to reduce the amount of time you spend on the ground.

Tip 2: Carefully consider your invisible grille design

There are plenty of innovative designs available in the market. In some cases, you can get your invisible safety grille customised to your home design. For instance, a vertical invisible grille is best suited for an L-shaped balcony instead of a horizontal invisible grille.

Similarly, you can opt to have a half installation, from the ceiling to the handrail of your balcony to save cost. However, it’s not advisable to do so because when the invisible balcony grille is installed on an iron handrail, the metal may bend over time due to high tensile strength. Instead, installing a strong slab is the most secure way to ensure design strength.

Tip 3: Compare the costs

Before you decide to engage an invisible grille supplier, make sure to compare the costs of their installation package and offer. This will be helpful for you to get the best invisible safetygrille at the very best and affordable price.

Also, depending on the coating of your invisible window grille, it can significantly affect the overall cost. Nano coating, for instance, costs 5-10% higher due to its durability against the weather and can last up to 15 years, even when installed on the balcony. The nylon coating works just fine for interior invisible window grille installation such as at the windows.

Tip 4: Check for warranty

Some invisible grille suppliers don’t provide a warranty for their products and services. In this case, you should check for a warranty before engaging any supplier to take on the installation work.

KLIG, for instance, provides several warranties for their products and services such as a 10-year material warranty for its 316 Stainless Steel Cable, a 3-year material warranty for Nylon Coating, and a 3-year installation warranty.

6 Questions You Should Ask Your Safety Grill Supplier

When it comes to home safety, many high-rise homeowners choose to invest in safety grills in Malaysia to protect and safeguard their children and pets to prevent unwanted mishaps from occurring as well as to expand their living spaces.

For these reasons, grills have become one of the must-haves for homes in Malaysia, and there are various types of grills to choose from, be it conventional mild-steel grill or invisible safety grill.

However, given the variety of safety grill choices, it can be more difficult to choose a safety grill supplier for your home. If you’re facing such a situation, don’t fret because we’re here to help. Let’s look at some of the questions you should ask before considering their services.

1)  What’s the best material for a safety grill?

Most safety grills in Malaysia are made from stainless steel, or aluminium. At KLIG, we use premium anti-rust 316L stainless steel for our cable due to its anti-rust property and durability. Besides, safety grills that are made from stainless steel offer an advantage in terms of safety and durability as they are highly resistant to rust and have high durability, especially under Malaysia’s extreme weather.

2)  How much does it cost to install safety grills in Malaysia?

This is a tricky yet necessary question to ask your potential safety grill suppliers. That’s because the cost can vary depending on various factors like the size of installation area (square feet), the material of grill cable, cable coating, bracket finishing, the complexity of installation (obstructions by air-con compressors, existing structural damages), etc.

If you have a budget to follow, make sure to highlight it during your consultation with your safety grill supplier. That way, they can make suggestions based on your budget. Should you decide to install an invisible safety grill in Malaysia, the installation cost is from RM800 to RM1800 for a standard size condominium/apartment balcony.

3)  Is there any warranty and what does it cover?

Different safety grill suppliers offer different types of warranty. At KLIG, we offer two types of warranty – material warranty and installation warranty. The 10 years material warranty covers the 316L stainless steel cable core, NanoTetra coating, and aluminium bracket. The only exception that this warranty covers is for the Nylon coating (3 years warranty).

Meanwhile, the 3-year installation warranty covers installation related defects and issues such as bracket detachment, cracked wall, or lifted tiles.  

4)  How durable is your safety grill in Malaysia?

Like most safety grills that are made to withstand breakage, our invisible safety grill is impossible to break by human force because the cables undergo extreme tensile testing and have been proven to withstand up to 250kg of force.

Besides, our cables can only be cut using a professional cable cutter. This means the use of inappropriate cutting tools is not advisable as that will only slow down the cutting process in the event of any emergency.

5)  Is the safety grill compliant with the Fire Department’s regulations?

Our safety grill is specifically designed with a Looping System that offers Fast and Easy Escape (FEE) during an emergency. Sure enough, our safety grill is compliant with the Fire Department’s regulations and requirements.

6)  Is there a difference between vertical and horizontal installation for invisible safety grill?

There is a difference in terms of safety. When the invisible safety grills are installed horizontally, they can act as a ladder for your children to climb on. In most cases, we would advise vertical installation as that will hinder them from hanging onto your safety grill for long periods.

In a nutshell, consider asking the questions above before you decide on a safety grill supplier because your decision will affect the safety level of your household.

Differences Between Invisible Window Grill and Mesh Grill Malaysia

Nowadays, securing your house with safety grills has become a necessity as it provides security and protection to your household. Available in several forms such as invisible window grill, mesh grill, etc., it can be difficult to determine which of these is suitable for your home.

If you find yourself in a dilemma over which type of grill you want and need to install, fear not as we are here to help by filling you in with all the details you need to know about invisible window grill and mesh grill in Malaysia.

In this article, we will share about invisible window grill and mesh grill in Malaysia, their features, and the differences between the two safety grills.

What are mesh grills?

Also known as a mesh screen, a mesh grill is constructed by weaving together different connected strands of materials or fibres to form a barrier that can prevent insects from entering your property while maintaining the airflow in your house.

However, mesh grills are prone to rust and may need replacing every so often, especially when they are installed in humid areas. Alternatively, you can opt for stainless steel mesh grills because they do not rust easily and provide much more protection as they cannot be cut easily with a knife.

That said, mesh grill in Malaysia is considered as state-of-the-art barrier as it provides you with a clear view, regulates airflow, and offers protection while giving your home a modern aesthetic look. On top of that, they can be installed on your doors and windows.

What are invisible window grills?

Unlike mesh grill in Malaysia, invisible window grills are thin metal cables installed at a certain distance (usually 2 to 3 inches apart) to create a safety barrier of safety that prevents unwanted mishaps like accidental falls while providing your household with unobstructed views of your surroundings.

While these grills may appear susceptible to breakage, each cable can withstand a maximum tension of 250kg. Moreover, the invisible grill can be installed either horizontally or vertically based on your safety needs and preferences.

More importantly, each metal cable of invisible window grills are made from premium 316L stainless steel wires, which makes it highly resistant to rust and chemical corrosion. And for this reason, invisible grills can last for over 15 years with minimal maintenance.

Invisible Window Grill vs Mesh Grill

Each of these grills offers varying features and benefits and hence, can be difficult for you to decide which one to install. Here are some of the features you should consider when making your decision:

a)  Usage

Both grills offer protection and security in varying ways but differ in terms of application. For instance, a mesh grill is more suited for installation on landed properties because the mesh screen can keep insects out of your home while maintaining airflow.

Invisible window grill, on the other hand, is more suited for high-rise buildings as they are invisible in nature. Once they are installed, you can hardly see them from afar. Besides, it offers no obstruction which means you can have the clearest view of your surroundings.

b)  Cost

High-end security doors or windows may look attractive and often seem like the best option for your home but if you’re looking for an option within your budget, mesh grills or invisible window grills may be able to accommodate it. Take mesh grills as examples. They typically cost more as the screen needs to be custom-made due to the different weaving pattern.

Meanwhile, the cost of installing invisible window grills is more affordable as the design is very straightforward and there’s no need to customize the metal cables. Besides, you can choose from a range of materials like stainless steel to match the installation cost.

c)  Style

Choosing your grill based on this feature can be tricky but it depends on your needs and preference. Mesh grill, for instance, has a variety of weaving patterns to choose from, which means you get to decide on the aesthetic of your home security.

Invisible window grills, on the other hand, can only be installed in two orientations – horizontal and vertical. However, this doesn’t mean that they offer less aesthetic to your home because they can be installed in your house as a design feature.

Regardless of which type of safety grill you choose to install, always bear in the mind the reason you are installing a safety grill as well as your home location to ensure that you make the best choice.

Tips on Choosing Suitable Invisible Safety Grill for Your Home

Are you looking to secure your home with an invisible grille but you’re wondering how safe is it? Well, you’ve come to the right place because we’ve got all the things you should know about invisible grille and how you can choose a suitable one for your home. KLIG is one of invisible safety grill supplier will shared everything that you should know about invisible grille in this article.

How safe is invisible grille?

Invisible grille are thin metal cables installed on balconies, windows, or any other areas, to create a barrier of safety to prevent falls while still providing homeowners with unobstructed scenic views.

While the metal cables may appear susceptible to breakage, each cable can withstand a maximum tension of 250kg. If all the cables added up together, they are capable to support forces up to few tonnes! During the installation, the invisible safety grill supplier will mount each metal cable on brackets, either horizontally or vertically, depending on your needs and preferences.

Every metal cable is installed 2 inches (5.08cm) apart to prevent your toddler or pet from being able to squeeze through the cables.

That said, each metal cable of the invisible grille is made from premium 316L stainless steel wires, which makes it highly resistant to rusting, and chemical corrosion. Invisible safety grill can last for more than 15 years with minimal maintenance. This will ensure the invisible grille can safeguard your family without degrading over time.

How can I choose a suitable invisible safety grill for my home?

So, you’ve just learned how safe an invisible grille can be and decided to install one for your home. But you’re wondering how to choose a suitable one because there’s a plethora of designs and types of cables to choose from. Here’s our take on this:

  • Type of metal cable

There are many types of metal cable available in the market. It’s crucial that you do your research on this because some invisible safety grill suppliers may sell iron cables, which isn’t a good choice for your invisible grille as it’ll rust over time.

As most invisible grilles are installed mainly at the balcony, they’re constantly exposed to UV rays and/or chemical rain. Thus, you’ll want a type of metal cable that’s resistant to corrosion, chemical, and rust like stainless steel. At KLIG, we use stainless steel due to its anti-rust property to ensure that the cable can last long without affecting the cable’s strength.

  • Quality of metal cable

Every grade of stainless steel contains a mix of iron and chromium at different levels. The exact mix and other additions are the ones that make the difference between grades of stainless steel. At KLIG, we use 316L stainless steel while most of our competitors use grade 304 or 303 stainless steel.

This is because grade 316L stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance to chlorides and acids. Known as marine-grade stainless steel, it’s often used for the cabling on ship decks because it can withstand the corrosive environment at sea. Meanwhile, grade 304 stainless steel is more suitable for indoor use as it offers standard corrosion resistance, formability, strength, and maintenance.

  • Coating of metal cable

There are several reasons for coating the metal cables of an invisible grille. The first reason is to prevent skin injuries when your children slide their hands down the cable. Secondly, it’s to lengthen the lifespan of your invisible grille.

At KLIG, we offer two types of coating – Nylon or NanoTetra. Nylon coating is generally more suitable for indoor use because the coating is less resistant to UV rays. If you’re installing an invisible safety grill at the balcony, we suggest that you opt for the NanoTetra coating as it’s resistant to UV rays and chemical corrosion, even after 15 years.

When choosing a suitable invisible grille for your home, consider the above as you’ll be investing in the safety of your family. Looking to install an invisible grille at your place? KLIG is one of invisible safety grill supplier, offers a free on-site consultation before you make your decision. For more information, contact us at 018-2072120 or email support@klig.my.

Things You Should Know Before Safety Grill Installation

Regardless of the reason, a self-installation of the safety grille is not recommended, especially when it involves the balcony. That’s because it can be a dangerous installation that requires a prior installation setup and safety experience – which only professional installers are equipped with.

Moving forward, we discuss the process of a safety grill installation and the factors to consider before installing a safety grille.

Let’s say I am interested to install, where do I start?

Let’s say you want to install a safety grille on your balcony. The installation process will usually begin with your quest for a safety grille supplier like KLIG Safety Grille. If you have the measurements of your balcony, you can convey them to us. Also, it’d be better if you can provide your floor plan as that will allow us to arrange a free site visitation to determine the installation feasibility of your safety grille.

Next, they will provide a quotation based on the measurements obtained, which will be valid for 14 days. Once you approve the quotation, you’ll be required to deposit 40 percent of the total invoice/quotation amount prior to your installation date. After that, we will send our technicians to your house for the installation, during which they’ll be required to wear professional harness and safety equipment.

If you choose to install an invisible grille on your balcony and windows, note that it may take a longer time to complete all installation. Because this installation involves plenty of metal cables and requires precision in strapping the cables at an equal distance of 2 inches. After which, your choice of coating will be applied to each metal cable.

What are the factors to consider before safety grill installation?

If you have yet to install a safety grille for your home, the following are some factors to consider to avoid irreparable damages to your home.

1)  Materials to be used

Not all safety grilles are created equal. While iron is the most common material used to create safety grilles, stainless steel grilles are more resistant to rust and chemical corrosion. This makes them ideal for both indoor and outdoor like the balcony.

2)  Security level

Different types of safety grilles offer varying levels of security. Some suppliers provide 3 inches or 4 inches gap between the cables. The wider the gap, the less safe it’ll be for your children or pets to poke their head out the grille. Make sure to check how wide the gaps are to prevent any untoward mishap.

3)  Design option

Most safety grilles are customizable, including invisible grille. They’re typically mounted on brackets, either horizontally or vertically depending on the feasibility of installation as different balcony design/size may require specific orientation of installation (horizontal/vertical). If you want a mix of both, you can discuss with the safety grille supplier for the best design option for your home.

4)  Legal regulations

According to the Strata Management Act 2013, Section 22, Part 3, proprietors (homeowners) of every condominium or apartment are allowed to install safety grille for protection. This means you can worry less about the management/developer finding fault with you. However, do note that you can only get it installed within your house and up to your balcony. Beyond that, you’ll be breaching the act.

Once you’ve considered these factors before a safety grill installation, you can safely look for safety grille suppliers like KLIG Safety Grille to help with the safety grill installation.

The Importance of Balcony Invisible Grille

In this article, we are going to discuss the importance of balcony invisible grille and the reasons of installing invisible balcony grill. Let’s start, shall we? Living in a high-rise building comes with plenty of perks such as unobstructed scenic views, variety of amenities, and you’re literally living in your own little bubble, separated from the rest of the world.

However, living in a high-rise also has its cons like getting to and from your unit to your car can be time-consuming. Not only that, but safety risks can also be your greatest concern if you have young children and/or pets.

In May 2020, a toddler fell to her death from the 12th floor of a condominium’s balcony after being left at home, in an unlocked room with a younger sibling. The autopsy revealed that her death was caused by severe injuries to the head and skull as well as various external and internal injuries after falling from a great height.

There have been many more similar unfortunate cases like this for the past 5 years in Malaysia and other countries throughout the world. There are more and more condominiums or high buildings that are built over the recent years especially in capital cities due to lack of development areas or rising cost of lands.

There are few instances when we visited the clients’ home to get the measurement for the balcony safety grille. 

There was one time a mother told us, when we visited her apartment. She told us when she was just away in the kitchen for a minute or two, she was shocked to see her 3 years old daughter were climbing the fence with almost half of the body leaning over the top of the balcony railing.

We noticed that children tend to lean over the balcony out of curiosity. Some exceptionally smart and creative children, that we heard of, even move their toys or plastic furniture and formed ‘stairs’ that they could climb up the balcony.

Imagine the horror if something bad had happened. With our invisible safety grille, you can minimize the safety risks as well as prevent mishaps from happening. In this article, we discuss the importance of installing invisible balcony grill.

Why should you install a balcony invisible grille?

If you’re in the market for balcony grille options, you’ll likely come across various types of safety grilles, including invisible balcony grills. Technically they’re not invisible when you look closely. But when you view them from a distance, they appear invisible due to the use of fine, thin wires. Find out why you should install invisible balcony grill for your place:


  • Invisible balcony grills can prevent nasty falls

We often hear of incidences where children or pets are left alone at home and sometimes, mishaps can happen. To prevent that from happening, balcony invisible grilles can serve as a protective barrier at your windows, doors, or balconies. You can also have peace of mind by installing balcony invisible grilles at your place.


  • Invisible balcony grills are tough

KLIG Safety Grille is made from premium 316L stainless steel with an internal sublayer of 2mm for strength. Additionally, each cable can withstand a maximum tension of 250kg, making it highly resistant to breakage. In case of emergency, the grilles can be cut using a wire cutter for fast escape.


  • Invisible balcony grills won’t rust

Unlike your traditional metal grille that can rust over time, invisible balcony grilles (invisible balcony grill) are less susceptible to rusting. However, this depends on the stainless steel grade used by your supplier/installer. If you’re given the option to choose, opt for 316 stainless steel as it won’t rust easily.


  • Invisible balcony grills are ‘invisible’

As the name suggests, invisible balcony grill are hardly visible from afar. If you’ve got nice scenery out of your balcony, you probably don’t want the view to be obstructed by thick metal grilles.
