What is the Invisible Grille?
Invisible grilles have been used in Singapore homes for around 15 years and are now one of the most popular safety solutions for high-rise living. They are simple, safe safety grilles installed at balconies, windows and openings to protect children, family members and pets.
BlindXpert invisible grilles use top-quality 316 marine-grade stainless steel cables. They are rust-free, corrosion-resistant, lightweight and long-lasting, with virtually zero maintenance. From a distance the slim cables almost disappear, so you keep your view and your home's facade stays clean.
On balconies, invisible grilles are typically installed as a fixed barrier. For windows, many homeowners choose an openable casement design, which makes window cleaning easy.

Invisible Grille FAQs
Are invisible grilles safe for children?
Yes. Cables are tensioned and spaced closely to prevent children from passing through, and are anchored securely into aluminium tracks fixed to the structure.
Why 316 stainless steel?
316 stainless steel contains molybdenum, which gives it better corrosion resistance than 304 stainless steel - important in Singapore's humid and coastal environment.
Can invisible grilles be installed in HDB flats?
Yes. Invisible grilles are commonly installed at HDB balconies and windows. We advise on the right configuration for your layout.
Do invisible grilles need maintenance?
Very little. Occasional inspection of tension and a wipe down is enough.
