Doors and windows allow the flow of breeze and natural light into the interior spaces of your home. However, opening up your doors and windows can potentially allow a party of unwanted guests in your home: flies, mozzies, organic materials brought in by the wind, and even the view of prying neighbourly eyes.

The best way to curtail these threats is to install quality fly screens. Here is a guide to choosing the right ones for your home.
Screens are a popular choice for attaching to doors and windows. However, there is a difference between fixed screen and retractable screens. You should understand the difference before making a purchase decision.
Fixed screens cover your doorways or windows and stay in the same position permanently. For optimal protection, they can be designed using a variety of quality materials. They are installed using rivets, screws or welded frames. They might even have the added function of fire protection.
Retractable fly screens, conversely, are not fixed in their place. Instead, their design allows them to roll away when not in use. The screen folds onto itself and is kept in a cassette. For window usage, you can slide the retractable fly screen open or closed as needed. For doorways, the screen can be shut and opened when you come home or leave. This way, they can serve as a versatile barrier during the day and can be closed along with the door when locking up at night.
Retractable fly screens provide considerable convenience for doors, whereas fixed fly screens are great for windows that don&#;t require much opening.
Both styles are highly efficient when it comes to keeping out pests. They are both produced using fine mesh and successfully keep out bugs like flies and mozzies.
Both screens are easy to clean and maintain. All you have to do is wipe them down with a damp cloth to keep them clean. You can also choose to have them professionally cleaned.
Retractable fly screens can be fully retracted, while fixed screens are stuck in the one place. Although retractable fly screens are better for subtlety, fixed screens can also come in a variety of unobtrusive colours and styles.
Both styles can provide you convenience depending on what you&#;re looking for. For example, for upstairs areas, fixed screens might be a better option as they don&#;t require managing. For any doors that enter into an outdoor space, retractable screens are best so that you can quickly open them when necessary.
Both styles offer a great amount of ventilation. You can keep out pests whilst allowing fresh air to circulate throughout the home.
You can buy both fixed and retractable screens in a variety of colours, shapes and sizes. So it&#;s never a big deal looking for a screen to suit your home&#;s design, as long you choose a respected provider like Jim&#;s Flyscreens & Blinds.
Retractable Fly Screens lend themselves to the &#;transterior trend&#; in architecture which continues to gain momentum with homeowners looking to seamlessly blend their indoor and outdoor spaces. Wide span / Large doors are often used in conjunction with other natural elements, such as plants and textures, to achieve this design feature. They work well because you can open the doors and immediately connect two spaces, and when closed the glass expanse visually creates an open area to bring the outside in.

Unfortunately, insects and creepy crawlies come hand in hand with living in our beautiful country. And while it&#;s great to fling open the expansive doors to connect your indoor and outdoor living spaces, it&#;s a good idea to install a suitable fly screen that gives you functionality without impacting the flow of your interior design elements.
With so many screens on the market, it can hard to know what to look out for and determine the best type of screen for your home. Retractable Flyscreens are great for screening large openings and hard to screen areas such as Bi-fold doors, French doors, Stacker doors, Pivot doors, Awning windows and Casement windows.
A retractable flyscreen does exactly that&#;retracts. When opened, the screen rolls back into a cassette, very much like a blind. Pleated fly screens work in a very similar way.
Smooth retractable fly screens and pleated retractable fly screens are similar in many ways, but there are a couple of key differences.
Retractable screens have so many benefits, but they&#;re not always suitable. Retractable flyscreens are naturally not rigid like security screens and hence more vulnerable to damage when in the closed position (across the opening). Please be aware that a pet or person (particularly a child) walking or running into a closed retractable screen could potentially brake the cords or fabric.
Some things for you to consider are:
The cost of retractable flyscreens will vary greatly depending on the size of the opening. At SP Screens, a standard colour, standard size ( x mm) start from $850.
Dust and debris can collect in the aluminium guide channels over time. Removal of such build up is easy and important to ensure the screen&#;s smooth movement. While the screen is fully retracted, remove any dust or debris with a soft cloth or a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush nozzle. Dusty or coastal environments will require regular cleaning.
While the screen is fully extended, remove any build up with a vacuum cleaner that has a soft brush nozzle, care should be taken not to tear or rip the mesh.
