Fly Screens (Hinged & Flat)
These strong, durable aluminium framed hinged fly screens are designed specifically for industrial and commercial use. Our hinged screens have mitred corners and a flat smooth face that make them unobtrusive and easy to clean.
With the aid of specially tailored sub-frames this type of insect screen can be fitted over many different types of windows and openings protecting against flies, bees, wasps, midges and other flying insects.
Each screen has a built in nylon brush pile in the back that crushes against every surface to form the perfect seal, allowing only fresh air in.
A variety of mesh materials and weave sizes can be fitted to suit individual requirements. Meshes can be replaced many times without the need of new framework.
All our screens are powder coated and are available in White or Brown. The insect screens can be cleaned with a domestic cream cleaner as and when required.
