INTRODUCING SHIELDSAFE

INTRODUCING SHIELDSAFE

Established from decades of experience in the window and door industry in Australia, ShieldSafe Security Doors and Screens today sits on the original Colonial Castings site in Smithfield NSW.

A business that was established in 1947 and still to this day remains synonymous within the security door industry, Colonial Castings remains an iconic Australian made product.

Today, distributed through sister company Doric and its distribution partners nationally, Colonial Castings continues to feature across the country as a tasteful finish to many homes.

With an ever-changing security door market, Colonial Castings evolved into Colonial Security in 2015 with a unique patented door system and retention method. Their objective from the outset and still to this day, is to improve on and raise the standard of barrier, safety and security doors.

With a gap in market Colonial Security grew, which meant it was time to reset and look towards the future in the form of a newly converted and upgraded facility in Smithfield, a site which once housed the castings foundry and so much history for the group.

Letting go of this history was never going to be easy and could only be embarked upon with succession in mind and not unlike most businesses in Australia, the pandemic presented a broad array of challenges that would either make or break.

So, what did we do? We overhauled the manufacturing facility, invested in our factory, in our equipment, but most importantly in our people, all while continuing to support and grow our customer base.

Coming out the other side, it was time for a face-lift, not only for our factory but also for our brand and image. This would be yet another project that would not only require the right amount of energy and focus, but also the commitment and support of the Alchin Long Group.

ShieldSafe was unveiled on 1 September 2022 – A Division of Colonial Castings.

Established with the sole purpose of wholesale, we are continuing to carve out and grow a unique segment of the market that perhaps looks to aluminium door supply a little differently in 2022 and beyond.

By having our own door and framing system, group manufactured mesh and hardware, it is fair to say we can control the narrative of our supply chain perhaps better than most.

Combined with in-house powder-coating capabilities, a state-of-the-art packaging machine and the financial backing of Australia’s largest privately owned hardware company, ShieldSafe is excited and ready for the future.

Those that look to ShieldSafe today as a supply of option will receive years of experience in doors, testing, hardware, locksmithing and manufacturing, so customers seeking professional insight and/or qualification need not look any further.

There is no doubt we all take security for granted in a country like Australia, but we all should have the ability to feel safe in our own homes and this industry certainly helps deliver that peace of mind across the country every day.

Understanding the origins of a product have, perhaps, never been more important than what they are today and the ShieldSafe manufacturing facility has been established to produce a consistent and high-quality product.

Whether it is about insect control, airflow, ascetics or general piece of mind, ShieldSafe Security Doors and Screens unique patented system delivers a high-quality solution that will suit all applications.
