Why a screen
An open window, without the flies
Choose a screen that suits your opening and daily use. Check the frame surface, size and fitting method; adhesive products may mark delicate paint or finishes.
Windows and doors
Window screens in three square sizes, and a self closing door screen in 33 size and colour combinations. Check your selected option before ordering.
Nothing drilled
Magnetic strip, velcro tape or push pins depending on the screen. None of it needs a drill and none of it needs a trade.
Comes back down
Removable screens can be taken down for cleaning or storage. Adhesive tape and pins can mark surfaces; check the product instructions and any rental conditions.
Three meshes, three colours
Standard 18x16 for flies and mosquitoes, midge 20x20 for no-see-ums, and 10x16 pet-resistant mesh for greater durability. Frames in white, black or brown.
For the ones that get in
A USB-rechargeable electric racket, a leather swatter with a metal handle and a ten pack of plastic ones. Plus mesh, frame and strip to repair a screen rather than replace it.
