Print this page

Please review the image below and enter the following measurements in the boxes provided:

• Width = measurement A
• Height = measurement B

Please ensure your measurements are entered in millimetres (mm),

Before proceeding with manufacture your screen, we will contact you for measurements C, D, E & F

Please, also check your doors carefully for any fittings which may cause an obstruction when using the screen,  these include. 

• Skirting boards
• Dwarf walls
  

If any of the above are present, please let us know, as alternative dimensions may be required (see additional image for more detaiils)

With a Dwarf Wall

If your door handle protrudes beyond the face of your door frame (i.e. the frame you will be fitting the screen to) when the door is closed, it may prevent you from fully closing the screen and the door at the same time.

Solutions are:

1. If the screen is fitted to the inside of the property leave it partly open or lift it off the hinges (the hinges are designed so the screen can be easily removed when required)
2. Fit the screen to the surrounding wall i.e. beyond the reach of the handle so that it can close fully. This may not always be desirable or possible if the surrounding surfaces are not flat or far enough forward.
3. Fit a secondary frame (we can provide uPVC framework - see related products) that finishes beyond the door handle and fit your screen to that frame.

If you would like to discuss any of these options in more detail please contact us.

Which mesh do I need ?

We offer two types of mesh with this screen. Your choice will depend on which insects you wish to keep out.

BetterVue insect mesh - 18 x 18 holes per square inch

Examples of insects this mesh will keep out:

• Bees & Wasps, Bluebottles, Cluster Flies, Crane Flies, Daddy-Long-Legs, House Flies, Hornets, Ladybirds, Mosquitoes, Moths, Butterflies and Spiders.

BetterVue insect mesh is designed and manufactured to ensure maximum visibility (through the screen) ensuring as much light passes into the room as possible.

We recommend this mesh for all areas of the UK except in parts of Scotland where Midges are present and other parts of the UK where Corn Flies and Thunder Bugs/Thrips are present.

Midge mesh - 30 x 20 holes per square inch

This mesh will keep out:

• The same as BetterVue insect mesh + Midges, Corn Flies and Thunder Bugs/Thrips

Midge mesh has a tighter weave than BetterVue insect mesh to ensure Midges, Corn Flies and Thunder Bugs/Thrips cannot penetrate, however the visibility and airflow is reduced slightly.

We recommend this mesh in parts of Scotland where Midges are present and other parts of the UK where Corn Flies and Thunder Bugs/Thrips are present.

Please note - genuine Midge mesh is 30 x 20 - anything less e.g. 20 x 20 or 18 x 16 will not keep midges out.
