Magnetic Window Screen

Place the window screen into the window frame and hold it in place with 4 pieces of duct tape. You should place the duct tape on the corners of the screen. The tape should then span the screen and stick to the magnetic screen for window.

We know that when you try out the effectiveness of our screens by buying only 1-2 units for those windows where mosquitoes (and other insects) enter your house - you will absolutley love them and will want to install these screens on every window.

Answer: The screen is made of durable and quality materials, that are hardly visible (aesthetics), that do not rust or shrink and are washable. It comprises of:- Flyscreen Mesh The fly screen mesh is Phiferglass, standard 18 X 16 (thread count per square inch) mesh insect screening, and is woven from permanent glass yarn, coated with a protective vinyl to ensure lasting beauty, color and flexibility. It is produced under the most exacting conditions to meet extremely rigid specifications. Phiferglass is noncombustible and will not rust, corrode or stain. Dark Phiferglass screens offer the best outward visibility of the product line. Flyscreen Frame The frame is made from flexible (1/2 inch | 12.5mm wide) PVC strips that is very durable and has a professional finished appearance (vs cheaper “recycled” plastics with impurity that is brittle and matt) Magnetised Strips Long-lasting and made from a new-generation of permanent magnetic powder. The screen is held and secured together using a grooved magnetic stripe which interlocks into the window frame whilst securing the flyscreen mesh to the screen. 3m Adhesive One of the magnetised strips (you get x2 - one that is attached to the frame - the second which is attached to your window frame) is equipped with a 3M adhesive tape for strong adhesion to your window. This magnetic strip can adhere to any smooth surface including aluminum alloy, steel, wood, glass and others. Ideal for rental properties the magnetic strip attached to your window can tear off without leaving any sticky traces. The 3M adhesive tape is attached to your window frame to provide a substrate so that the magnetic wire mesh window frame can stick to the window.

Yes, it is. There is no need for any tradesman equipment or tools. Every boxed set of magnetic insect screens comes with detailed instructions (including video instructions) that you can easily follow. It should take about 15-20mins to set up each screen. First timers may take a little longer to measure, cut, assemble the flyscreen and then install onto the frame. But rest assured that with some practice and confidence, following installations will take much less time to complete. We do recommend you spend considerable time ensuring your existing window (frame area) is free of dust & oil. This will ensure that the magnetic strip secures to your window frame well which will in turn keep the flyscreen firmly attached. For ease of setup, use a good and clear working floor space where you can easily lay down the flyscreen frame as you do the set up.

The DIY kit for our screens is extremely easy-to-install, you can find the installation video here. With that said we do understand that some people prefer to engage hassle-free installation service. We recommend a great online service called Airtasker. Simply order your screens online here and when they arrive co-ordinate a local handyman from Airtasker to come and fit them for you.

No - our magnetic insect screens can be easily customized (ie cut to fit any window size)- at the time of installation. The custom fitting of the screen to your specific window is done when installing by cutting the PVC frame to a size to fit your window. We recommend you buy a one of the screen sizes slightly larger than the window you wish to install it on - so you can cut the frame to size. To help you save money & to minimize waste, we provide x3 standard sizes that you can buy - which match closely average window sizes across the globe.

Answer: YES.... These screens can be fitted on any window frame. It is suitable for most window types: sliding, push-out casement, louvres. The screen affixes to your window frame using a strong 3M adhesive. This adhesive can attach to all types of surfaces, including: aluminum alloy, PVC, plastic, wood, steel etc

For the detailed way of taking measurements, see the photo & detailed method on our product page here. The idea is that you measure your existing window using the method shown and then choose the next closest size to buy. For example, if your window size is 112cm x 95cm, choose 120cm x 100cm (= model 1210).

Answer: Whilst the mesh is a dark color.... it is completely see through and does not interrupt the natural flow of light coming through your window.

The ferromagnetic rubber magnet will not lose its magnetism and shape under normal home use conditions. Our magnets are manufactured to world class quality. The adhesives used to stick the ferromagnetic rubber magnet to the window frame is from a the leading 3M company.

Service life depends on the material, fitting, exposure and care. Inspect regularly and replace damaged parts; a fixed lifespan is not promised.

No it will not The grey/charcoal colored window mesh appears invisible from any distance further than a few feet. This is the primary reason we do not make the mesh out of other colors (example: white, green). If you allow the window mesh to become very dusty (after a few months of use), you will see a film of on it. To return it back to its original (new looking) condition - simply remove the screen and wash it (see how to wash your screen tip in this set of FAQ's) For ventilation of your space, normal airflow is not affected by the newly installed screens and air will be able to move freely in and out of your house. In fact, this is the one of the main reasons why our customers install our screens: in an effort to keep the windows open (allowing airflow) while keeping the mosquitoes, lizards, flying cockroaches and other creepy crawlies out.

Answer: Check the sizings of your smaller windows. The general answer is yes (but you have to request more corner pieces from us - which we are happy to provide)

Compare the listed mesh, edging, dimensions and fitting method with your needs. Contact us for help choosing a suitable option.

Yes we do. If you need accessories for your screen (like extra corner pieces, joiners, extra mesh etc etc, you can buy these separately.

Cleaning is very easy and simple. It is an idea to wash your new window screen once every 1-2 months or even more if you find the mesh is dusty.. The way to clean your screen is by placing your screen against the wall or even hang it on a clothesline, and simply hose it down with water. Alternatively, you can use a soft sponge or cloth, with some gentle detergent. After washing simply let the screen drip dry. General cleaning of your Magnetic Window screen will not affect the magnetism. Some of our customers also like to quickly vacuum the screen while it is still on the window. This works well also!

Every screen we supply comes complete with a set of wind/holding clips. They should be set up at the upper one-third of the installed screen. The function of the wind holding clips is to securely hold the screen in place when you are lifting the screen open from the bottom to access your window.

Answer: If the metal is one of the magnet attractable metals, then yes. Magnet attractable metals are: Iron, cobalt, nickel and their alloys, ferrite, etc. Most car frames can be attracted by magnet, thus you don't need to glue magnetic strip to your car.
