Security Screens – How Much Do They Cost?
BOSS Security Screens SFV build custom security screen panels for existing doors, windows, patio sliders, French doors, and other vulnerable openings across San Fernando Valley.
This pricing guide gives homeowners a realistic starting point before requesting an estimate. These are premium security screens, not standard bug screens, replacement windows, replacement doors, shutters, or decorative bars.
The starting prices below are product-only estimates. Tax, shipping, professional measurement, labor, and installation are quoted separately after the team understands your openings.
Product-Only Starting Prices
Use these numbers as planning anchors, not as a final installed quote. Final pricing depends on the actual opening, configuration, finish, hardware, measurement, shipping, tax, and installation scope. Wider openings usually require more material and planning because the product has to fit the way the home already opens and locks.
| Opening type | Product-only starting price | Best-fit use case |
|---|---|---|
| Security Screen Window | Starting at $1,000 | Ground-floor, side-yard, bedroom, or street-facing windows where the existing window should stay in place. |
| Single Door Security Screen | Starting at $3,000 | Front, side, garage-entry, and rear doors that need a premium security screen layer fitted to the existing opening. |
| French & Double Door Security Screen | Starting at $4,500 | Wider double-door openings that need a matched security screen solution instead of a generic one-panel approach. |
| Patio Sliding Door Security Screen | Starting at $4,800 | Sliding patio doors and large rear openings. Final pricing depends on the number of panels and the opening configuration. |
Large custom openings may price above these starting points. Smaller or simpler openings may be less.
What Changes the Final Security Screen Quote?
The right estimate starts with the real openings, not a one-size-fits-all price. A front door, a small window, a French door set, and a multi-panel patio slider all need different sizing and planning. The estimate separates the product price from the field work required to measure, prepare, deliver, and install the final security screen package.
| Pricing factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Opening type and count | A project with one front door prices differently than a package covering a front door, patio slider, and multiple vulnerable windows. |
| Exact size and configuration | Wider openings, double doors, special shapes, or multi-panel sliders require more material and planning. |
| Frame, mesh, and finish choices | Color, finish, mesh, and visual requirements can change the product specification and the final project scope. |
| Hardware and locking needs | Single doors, French doors, patio sliders, and window panels can require different hardware planning and field confirmation. |
| Existing-site conditions | The current frame, threshold, trim, access, and opening condition affect professional measurement and installation planning. |
You Can Protect the Highest-Risk Openings First
You do not have to secure every opening at once. Many homeowners start with the openings that feel most exposed, then phase the rest of the home as budget and timing allow. This keeps the page commercially honest without pushing a full-home purchase before the homeowner understands the scope.
- Start with access points: front doors, side doors, rear patio sliders.
- Add vulnerable windows: street-facing, low, side-yard, and bedroom openings.
- Use the estimate to plan a full package without forcing every opening into the first phase.
1Start with access points
Front doors, side doors, and rear patio sliders are usually the first openings to price.
2Add vulnerable windows
Street-facing, side-yard, bedroom, and low windows can be grouped into the next phase.
3Plan the full package
The estimate can show a complete scope and help prioritize what to install now versus later.
Custom-Built for Existing Doors and Windows
BOSS Security Screens are made for the openings already on the home. The existing door, window, glass, and frame stay in place unless the project scope specifically says otherwise.
The estimate process is designed to separate premium security screen projects from standard bug screen requests. If the goal is a low-cost insect screen, this is not the right product category.
BOSS backs approved security screens with a 15-year warranty and a No Break-In Guarantee: if someone defeats one of the security screens and breaks into the home, BOSS covers the theft deductible and replaces the security screen free of charge.
Pricing FAQ
Are these prices for the complete installed project?
No. The prices on this page are product-only starting points. Tax, shipping, professional measurement, labor, and installation are quoted separately.
Do I need to replace my doors or windows?
No. BOSS security screen panels are fitted to existing openings. The page should not position BOSS as a replacement door or replacement window company.
Are these the same as standard insect screens?
No. Airflow and insect reduction can be benefits, but the primary product is a premium security screen for existing doors and windows.
Can I phase the project across multiple openings?
Yes. Many homeowners begin with front doors, rear sliders, side entries, or exposed windows, then add additional openings later.
What should I send before requesting an estimate?
Photos of the openings help the team understand whether the project involves single doors, windows, French doors, patio sliders, or custom configurations.
Can financing be discussed during the estimate?
If financing is currently available for qualified buyers, the team can explain active terms and disclosures during the estimate.
