Security Screens Tempe, AZ | Professional Installation

Tempe packs a lot into a small footprint — a major university, a thriving downtown, established residential neighborhoods, and some of the Valley’s most sought-after waterfront property along Tempe Town Lake. It’s also a city where the mix of renters, homeowners, students, and professionals creates unique security dynamics. Paramount Security Screens helps Tempe property owners lock things down without locking themselves in.

Tempe’s Security Landscape

Living near a university campus means higher foot traffic, more transient residents, and — frankly — more opportunistic property crime. The neighborhoods surrounding ASU, particularly between Mill Avenue and Rural Road south of University Drive, see higher burglary rates than the Valley average. Porch piracy and garage break-ins are common complaints on Tempe community forums.

But it’s not just the campus-adjacent areas. Established neighborhoods like Maple-Ash, the Dwight corridor, and the homes near Kiwanis Park contain some of Tempe’s most charming older properties — many built in the ’60s and ’70s with single-pane windows, hollow-core doors, and screen doors that provide zero resistance to anything more than a housefly.

Upgrading to Paramount’s stainless steel security screens gives these homes a modern layer of protection that blends with their character. The mesh is powder-coated to match your existing frame color, and from the street, it’s barely noticeable.

Solutions for Tempe’s Housing Mix

Tempe’s housing stock is unusually varied for its size. You’ll find:

• Mid-century ranch homes in the neighborhoods north of Broadway
• Townhomes and condos throughout the Mill Avenue District
• 1990s-era family homes in the South Tempe neighborhoods near Guadalupe and Elliot
• Modern infill construction scattered throughout the city

Each type has different door and window configurations, and that’s exactly why custom measurement matters. We don’t sell off-the-rack security screens. Every opening is measured precisely, and the screen is fabricated to fit that specific frame — whether it’s a 30-inch side door on a 1968 ranch or an oversized slider on a new build.

Engineered for Desert Durability

Tempe’s position in the central Valley means it gets the full spectrum of Arizona weather — extreme summer heat, violent monsoon storms, and the occasional winter dust storm that coats everything in a fine grit. Our 316-grade marine stainless steel mesh resists all of it. No corrosion from alkaline dust. No warping from 115°F heat. No degradation from constant UV exposure.

The screens also serve as effective solar shading, reducing heat gain through windows and sliding doors. Several Tempe customers have reported measurable drops in their summer electricity bills after installing screens on south and west-facing openings.

Protection You Can Count On

Every installation includes our Lifetime Screen Guarantee and No Break-In Guarantee. Our screens are American-made from hurricane-rated stainless steel mesh — they’re built to stop far more than what any residential break-in attempt could throw at them.

We offer 0% financing to fit your budget.

Window Security Screens in Tempe

Front doors get the attention, but a ground-floor window is quieter to breach and far less likely to be
watched. Tempe has rentals and student housing alongside long-held family homes, and those are exactly the openings worth hardening first.

Every screen we build for a Tempe home is measured against the actual opening and fabricated to it, so
there is no gap for a pry bar to work. We build for single-hung and double-hung windows, horizontal sliders,
casement and awning windows, arched and specialty shapes, and bedroom egress windows that still open fast
from the inside.

The same 316 marine-grade stainless mesh that stops an intruder also shades the glass before the sun
reaches it and takes the debris a monsoon microburst throws at the house. Most Tempe customers tell us the
part they did not expect was being able to leave the windows open again in the evening.
