Leave the flies outside.
A fitted insect screen makes everyday ventilation more comfortable. Choose mesh that slides sideways, rolls up, swings open or stays in a removable frame, depending on how you use the window.

EVERYDAY CARE
A little cleaning.
Smoother operation.
Dust and sand can collect in guide tracks. A gentle cleaning routine helps the screen move freely.
Clear the tracks
Brush out loose dust and sand before moving the screen.
Clean the mesh gently
Use a soft brush and the care method supplied for your mesh. Avoid pressure washers and abrasive cleaners.
Stop if movement changes
Do not force a stiff or misaligned screen. Send us a photo or short video so we can advise on the next step.
CLEAR ANSWERS
Window screen questions
Practical information about choosing, fitting and looking after your screens.
Read all FAQsShould I choose a pleated or roll-up window screen?
Choose pleated mesh when sideways operation suits the window and there is room for the folded stack. A roll-up screen moves vertically and retracts into a top head box. Frame depth, handle clearance and access determine which works better.
What is a removable fixed flyscreen?
A fixed flyscreen holds mesh in an aluminium frame. The catalogue’s clip-on system allows the frame to be removed and refitted for access or cleaning; it does not retract during everyday use.
Can you fit flyscreens to existing doors and windows?
Yes, many existing aluminium, uPVC and timber openings can take a custom screen. We check the dimensions, frame depth, handles, opening direction and fixing surface before recommending the system.
Can the frame colour match my existing windows?
The catalogue offers RAL colours and, depending on the system, wood-effect, anodised and Kynar-coated finishes. We confirm the available finish and show a sample or colour reference before fabrication.
How do I clean a pleated flyscreen?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dust and keep the guide tracks free of sand and debris. Move the screen gently and avoid pressure washing, sharp tools or harsh cleaners. Follow the care instructions provided for your chosen system.
