Retractable flyscreens: what to know before you order

How retractable screens work, where they fit, and what to check before you order.

How they work

The mesh rolls into a housing when you are not using it and pulls across the opening when you want insect protection, so the door or window stays uncluttered.

Where they fit

They suit many sliding doors, hinged doors, bifolds and windows. The frame and available space decide the best system for each opening.

Why measuring matters

The screen has to sit closely within the opening to work well. We measure on site so the screen is made for your door or window.

Mesh and colour

Mesh choice affects visibility and airflow, and frames come in colours to suit your doors.
