Invisible grilles are for CHILD Safety, therefore choosing the Right Invisible Grilles Cables is as important as putting them up in the first place!
Here are 3 tips areas you should take note, Invisible grille Cables' Outer Cure, Inner Core & Reputable of installer.
Here are 3 tips areas you should take note, Invisible grille Cables' Outer Cure, Inner Core & Reputable of installer.
1) Invisible Grille Cables (Outer Core), The Membrane
This is the first layer of defense, probably the MOST IMPORTANT one. It prevents the inner stainless steel cables from fraying due to constant tension . Another purpose of using a membrane is to protect your child from accidental cuts.
Membrane available Options are Nylon ,Teflon, Nano Coated, All Weather Cables and Swiss Diamond Rods.
Nylon has little UV resistance. It can withstand some exposure to UV radiation, but it will eventually degrade and become brittle.
Teflon has fair UV resistance, it is often used in outdoor applications where it is exposed to occasional sunlight.
Nano can have variable UV resistance depending on the specific nanomaterial. Some nanomaterials, such as nano-carbon nanotubes, have poor UV resistance.
All Weather Cables has High UV resistance as it is treated with UV stabilizers, especially in Singapore's weather, making it extremely durable.
Swiss Diamond Rods has extremely High resistance as there ARE NO membrane.
Overall, Both Swiss Diamond Rods and All Weather Cables have the best UV resistance and Corrosion Resistance, followed by Teflon, Nylon and Nano.

How Durable is All Weather Invisible Grille Cables?
@endoinvisiblegrilles Review on Endo's All weather invisible grille By our forever idol Mr Qi YuWu. (QYW) Source from : https://instagram.com/stories/qiyuwu/3197388368438546791?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Which is better All Weather ,Teflon or nylon invisible grilles? All Weather Cables ,Teflon and nylon are popular coatings for invisible grilles. They are both durable and resistant to wear and tear, but they have different strengths and weaknesses. All Weather Cables • Pros: o As heat-resistant as Teflon o Special UV Ray resistant coating o Special Acid resistant coating o Longest Life Span • Cons: o More expensive than Teflon and Nylon Teflon • Pros: o More heat-resistant than nylon • Cons: o More expensive than nylon o Not Resistant to UV o Not Resistant to Acid Nylon • Pros: o Less expensive than Teflon • Cons: o Less heat-resistant than Teflon o More likely to turn yellow over time o Not Resistant to UV rays o Not Resistant to Acid Which one should you choose? If you are looking for the most durable and heat-resistant invisible grille, then All weather cables is the better choice. However, it is also more expensive and If you are on a budget or need an invisible grille that is easy to install, then Teflon or nylon is a good option. However, keep in mind that it is not as heat-resistant or durable as All Weather cables. #qiyiwu #joannepeh #invisiblegrille #singaporecelebrity #invisiblegrill #homeimprovement #homerenovation #invisiblegrilleforbalcony ♬ original sound - ENDO - ENDO GRILLES PTE LTD
What can you do to prevent invisible grill coating degradation?
Unfortunately, Degradation is irreversible. Choose a cable with a membrane / coating that can resist UV exposure, heat, and chemicals.
Endo All Weather Cables is a good choice, as they are specially formulated membrane that is resistant to the sun's UV rays, extreme heat, and chemicals in the air.
How often should you inspect your invisible grills for damage??
Even with a durable coating, inspect your invisible grills regularly for signs of damage. This is especially important if you live in an area with harsh weather conditions. If you notice any damage, replace immediately.
Yes, invisible grille requires minimum maintenance, not as much as traditional grille like metal ones. Invisible grilles are typically made of stainless steel wires with a membrane or coating over the wires.
To keep your invisible grille system clean, simply use clean water to wipe down, as they can become dirty and damaged over time.
@endoinvisiblegrilles Invisible Grille Cables fire endurance test: Fire safety is no joke, and that's why invisible grille cables are put to the test. In this video, we see a fire endurance test of invisible grille cables. The cables are exposed to a direct flame for 3 Seconds, and they withstand the heat with slight deformation. This proves that invisible grille cables are a safe and reliable way to protect your home from fire. Plus, they're invisible! So you can enjoy your view without sacrificing safety. #invisiblegrillecables #firesafe #homeimprovement #tiktok #endogrilles es #invisiblegrilles #invisiblegrille ♬ original sound - ENDO - ENDO GRILLES PTE LTD
