Fitting Instructions
Most of our products fit without any specialist tools or drilling. Here is everything you need.
Each product page has a fitting video and specific instructions for that product. Below are the general guides by product type. If you have any questions, email us with photos and we will help.
Lightweight & Magnetic Door Screens
- Clean the door frame where the hook-and-loop tape will attach. Use the wipes provided if included.
- Cut the hook tape to length and press firmly to the inside of the door frame on the hinge side and top.
- Attach the loop tape to the edges of the screen panel.
- Press the screen into position on the frame and smooth out any creases.
- Check the magnets align in the centre seam if fitted.
Do not cut or trim the screen. The weighted hem and magnet strips sit inside the mesh - trimming will damage the function.
Panel Flyscreen Doors
- Assemble the aluminium frame sections using the corner pieces provided.
- Stretch the mesh over the frame and press into the spline channel.
- Use the spline roller to press the spline strip firmly into the channel, stretching the mesh as you go.
- Trim any excess mesh flush with a sharp knife.
- Fit the door into the opening using the track system or hook-and-loop tape as specified for your model.
Watch the product video on the product page for a demonstration of the spline fitting method.
Aluminium Hinged Door
- Fix the hinge side of the frame to the door frame with the screws provided.
- Fit the door closer spring to the top hinge.
- Hang the door on the hinges.
- Adjust the door closer tension with the adjustment screw until the door closes firmly but not too hard.
- Fit the magnetic catch on the latch side if included.
Window Screen Kits
- Measure your window opening carefully - width and height inside the frame.
- For magnetic kits: attach the magnetic strips to the window frame and the mesh panel edges, then press together.
- For hook-and-loop kits: attach hook tape to the frame and loop tape to the mesh panel.
- For framed kits: assemble the aluminium frame, fit the mesh with the spline as above, and clip or screw into the window recess.
Mesh Material (DIY Re-mesh)
- Remove the old mesh from your existing frame by pulling out the spline with a flat screwdriver.
- Cut the new mesh slightly larger than the frame opening.
- Lay the mesh over the frame, starting at one corner.
- Use a spline roller to press the spline and mesh into the channel. Work opposite sides to keep the mesh taut.
- Trim excess mesh flush with the frame using a sharp knife.
Chain & Strip Curtain Screens
- Fix the header rail to the top of the door frame using the screws provided.
- Hang the chain or strip curtain onto the header rail hooks.
- Trim individual strips or chains to length if required (strip screens only).
For the commercial chain screen, ensure the rail is fixed securely - the screen is heavier than the domestic version.
