Tired of Your Old Fiddly, Clumsy Fly Screens?

Free measure and quote

❌ The Magnetic Mess: They lose their lock, and degrade over time. Worse yet, you have to rip them off just to reach your window handle, leaving them sitting awkwardly.
❌ The Swing-Out Standoff: Traditional swing-out bug screens are a constant battle. They get caught in your blinds/curtains and the little latches hurt your fingers.

We love our new slide-up screens, they are so much better than the old magnetic ones that kept peeling. Install was quick. Dave made the process super quick and easy.

Frequently Asked Product & Installation Questions

An average installation is 1 sliding door and 4 windows

Yes, absolutely. In fact, this is exactly what they are designed for. Because our retractable screens mount flush to the inside of your window frame, you simply push your awning or casement window outward using your standard handle, and then smoothly pull the screen down to lock it. It never fights your window hardware or gets caught in your blinds.

Not so much surprisingly. We use a good quality, high-transparency mesh, that comes in three different sizes, engineered specifically to maximize your indoor-outdoor ventilation. It allows most of the clean Northland breeze to fill your home while remaining virtually invisible to the eye. You get full insect protection, good ventilation, all without losing your view.

Because every home has different window sizes and configurations, all our frames are custom-made for an airtight fit. Pricing depends strictly on the exact milliliter measurements of your window. For a fast upfront estimate, simply snap a quick photo of your window frame and send it to Dave via WhatsApp.

Unlike cheap, temporary magnetic alternatives that peel away, sag, and degrade under the harsh NZ sun within a single season, our systems are built to last. They feature architectural-grade aluminum casings that protect the mesh. Because the screen rolls completely away when the window is shut, it is shielded from UV damage and weather wear.

No removal required. Traditional fixed fly screens are a hassle because you have to unclip, remove, and find a place to store them every winter to keep them clean. With our retractable system, you never touch them—they simply roll completely out of sight into their protective head cassette until spring returns. Damaged parts, if a child runs through one for example, or whatever other chaos ensues, can reasonably easily be changed out.

A pleated screen uses a clever, concertina-style folding mesh that glides horizontally along an ultra-low floor track. Unlike older roller doors that are under heavy spring tension (and snap back aggressively), pleated screens move with a gentle touch and stop exactly where you leave them, making them incredibly safe and easy for the whole family to use.

The biggest issue with cheap roller screens is that if a dog or child bumps into them, the high spring tension causes them to violently derail or tear. Our pleated doors solve this completely. Because the mesh is un-tensioned, it naturally flexes on impact. If a pet pushes against it, it simply pops out of the guide and can be zipped right back into place without breaking.

They are the ultimate layout solution for large, architectural openings. We install them seamlessly across modern bi-fold doors, wide multi-stacker sliding doors, French doors, and covered outdoor porches. For massive patio openings, we use a double-screen configuration that meets perfectly in the middle to span huge distances without blocking your view.

If you love your home's indoor-outdoor flow, absolutely. Traditional sliding insect doors permanently block half of your opening even when open, look bulky, and trap dirt. A premium pleated screen gives you total fly protection when you need it, and completely disappears into a slim, color-matched wall casing when you don't. It protects your lifestyle and your property value.

Maintenance takes less than five minutes a season. Simply click the soft brush attachment onto your vacuum cleaner and run it gently down the vertical mesh pleats to remove dust or pollen. To keep the glide effortless, occasionally vacuum or wipe the low-profile floor guide to keep it free of dirt and loose debris.
