Why Fly Screens
On the coast we live with doors and windows open. Kitchens, bedrooms and patios feel better with airflow. Fly screens let the breeze in and keep insects out. No chemicals. No buzzing. Just an easy house.
- Fine, discreet mesh that preserves the view.
- Aluminium frames with coastal aware finishes.
- Measured and fitted cleanly to your openings.
- Panels remove easily for cleaning and seasonal care.
We install weekly in Sedgefield, Knysna, Brentons, Plettenberg Bay and across the Garden Route.

Screen Options
We match the screen style to the opening and how you use the space. Keep it simple and choose what fits your daily rhythm.
| Type | Best for | Operation | Care |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hinged | Standard doors and windows | Opens like a normal leaf with a simple latch. | Wipe frame and rinse mesh. |
| Sliding | Patios, sliders and stacker doors | Glides on a track alongside your door. | Occasional track clean and rinse mesh. |
| Magnetic or fixed | Small windows and utility openings | Lift off or peel back for access. | Quick wipe and seasonal rinse. |
Made For Coastal Homes
Sun, salt air and wind are part of life here. We specify corrosion aware frames and meshes that stay tensioned so they sit flush and move smoothly. The aim is quiet reliability. Screens that look like they belong and keep working season after season.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do fly screens block the view
No. The mesh is fine and the frames sit close to existing joinery so rooms stay light and views remain clear.
Are they suitable for coastal conditions
Yes. We use corrosion aware frames and meshes designed for daily coastal use.
Can they be fitted to sliding and stacker doors
Yes. Sliding screen configurations are common. We match the screen to your door so movement stays smooth.
How do I clean the screens
Rinse the mesh with fresh water and wipe the frame. Check latches and tracks seasonally.
When should I choose Security Screens instead
Choose Security Screens for high traffic doors or when you want a stronger barrier while keeping airflow and light.
