As Spring comes over the horizon, homeowners are getting excited about opening their windows and doors and allowing warm, fresh air into their homes. We spend a lot of time indoors over the cooler winter months, and as soon as we have the excuse, it is so lovely to bring the outside into your home, swinging doors and windows open as much as we can. Unfortunately, it’s not just us who enjoy the warm weather. All of the insects that have been in hiding for so long that we feel like we’ve forgotten about them also get to come out and do their work across our gardens. With our windows and doors open, we give those insects our way into our homes, one they never seem to be able to fly out of again! 

So, what can be done to protect our homes from wayward insects who have strayed too far from the garden? Here at Appeal Home Shading, we provide window and door screens to keep the flies out whilst also retaining the home’s ventilation and visibility of the garden. With an insect screen from Appeal Home Shading, you can keep all of the benefits that Spring brings to the interior of your home whilst protecting yourself against pesky invaders!

Screens for Windows and Doors

Insect Screen on doors

We provide insect screens for all of the windows in your home. Our screens are completely bespoke and made to measure and manufactured in house to ensure that you get the insect protection that is best suited for your needs. The screen is fitted in a discreet cassette situated at the top of the window and is then pulled down over the window to protect the home. The cassette itself can be customised with RAL colours that will blend into the larger window installation, ensuring that it is barely noticeable when in use and when not.

We also provide insect screens for doors to keep the flies out! Whether your exit way is a bifold, sliding or french door, we’ll ensure that your insect screens fit perfectly and provide adequate protection for your home. For doors, the discreet cassette is situated on the left or right side of the door, and the screen pulls across the door horizontally. It is fitted on both a top and bottom rail with a specially designed caterpillar trail at the bottom to ensure that the fitting is flat and reduces trip hazards. Both the window and door screens are secure when used magnetically, ensuring a secure fit and easy retractability.

Superb Ventilation and Visibility

We don’t want to ruin your garden views or take away the ventilation that opening your window in the Spring brings to your home with our insect screens from doors and windows. As such, all of our screens are specially designed to ensure that your home has maximum ventilation when the insect screen is in use, and the screen itself is almost invisible to the naked eye. Our unique ClearVu micro-mesh fabric is manufactured from PVC coated fibreglass, providing your home with a proper airflow through tiny holes across the screen that is also not noticeable when pulled down or across. The material in use is also incredibly tough and durable. Insects will not be able to make new holes or force their way in. Similarly, the tracks that the screen moves across will continue to work perfectly and smoothly even with years of regular usage.
