Overview

Fifteen set sizes cover everything from a narrow side entrance to a wide patio opening, and a custom made size is available if yours is not on the list. Measure the frame rather than the door leaf before you order.

The magnetic seam runs the full height of the screen, so it opens as you walk through and pulls itself shut the moment you're past.

Choose black or white. The colour doesn't change the price, and the right one more or less disappears against your frame.

Midge mesh keeps flies, mosquitoes, wasps and midges out while the breeze still gets through, and you can see the garden.

A stitched velcro strip presses onto the door frame in a few minutes. Nothing is drilled, so it suits rentals, and it folds up for winter.

What’s included

One magnetic screen door in your chosen size and colour, with the stitched velcro fitting strip. Measure your door frame, not the door itself.

Shipping & returns

Delivery across Europe in 5 to 7 days. It is free on orders of €60 or more, and a flat €22 below that.

You can cancel within 14 days of receiving your order without giving a reason, under regulation 20 of S.I. No. 484 of 2013, which implements the EU Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU. You then have a further 14 days to send the goods back, and you pay the cost of returning them.

A screen cut to your own measurements is made to your specification, so regulation 13(1)(c) removes the cancellation right once we have started making it. A standard size you cut down yourself at home keeps the full right until you cut it.

If it arrives faulty, damaged or not as described we put it right at no cost to you, return postage included, under the Consumer Rights Act 2022.

How it works in a real doorway

Magnetic Screen Door 70cm (W) x 210cm (H)

A screen door only works if people actually use it. That's the argument for a magnetic one. You walk at it with a laundry basket, it opens, and it shuts itself behind you. There's nothing to unlatch and nothing to prop open, so flies never get those few seconds of open doorway.

Magnetic Screen Door 70cm (W) x 210cm (H)

The 15 set sizes run from 70cm x 210cm up to 180cm x 240cm, so a narrow side entrance, a standard back door and a wide patio opening are all covered. Measure across the frame and from the sill to the top of the frame. If you fall between two sizes, go up. Mesh will happily overlap a frame edge, but it won't stretch. And if your opening sits outside the range, a custom made size is available.

Magnetic Screen Door 70cm (W) x 210cm (H)

The closure is a full-height magnetic strip rather than a few spaced magnets. The seam pulls together along its whole length instead of leaving gaps top and bottom where insects get in. That's the difference customers notice against supermarket versions.

Yes, a Magnet Screen Door is perfect for sliding doors. The flexible mesh design easily attaches to the door frame and allows you to slide in and out without using your hands, making it a convenient solution for busy homes.

How does a Magnetic Door Screen work?

A Magnetic Door Screen works by aligning strong magnets down its centre seam, allowing the mesh to close instantly behind you after you pass through. This seamless closure helps keep flies and insects out while allowing fresh air to flow into your home.

Do I add anything to my measurements?

Yes, and people miss this. Allow 2 cm at the top and 2 cm on each side for the velcro strip that is stitched to the screen. Each of the 15 set sizes already accounts for a frame of that opening.

How many magnets are in the seam?

Up to 40, sewn into the fabric down the full height of the centre. Cheap supermarket screens run 26 or fewer, which is why their seams gape in the middle.

What mesh is it?

Midge mesh at 15 x 17 density. It is a step up from the thin nylon used on budget screens: it holds its shape, resists chemical corrosion and does not crease.

Will it keep midges out as well as flies?

Yes. The mesh is the upgraded midge grade, so it stops midges and the smaller biting insects along with flies, mosquitoes and wasps.

What tools do I need to fit it?

None. The velcro strip is stitched on and presses onto the door frame. No drill, no screws, nothing to hire.

Will it damage my door frame?

No. Nothing is drilled and nothing is screwed, so the frame is untouched. That is the reason it works in a rental.

Can I take it down and put it back up?

Yes. It comes off the frame, folds up small for storage, and goes back on next spring. Plenty of people run them seasonally.

Will it fit a sliding or patio door?

Yes, if the opening matches. Measure the frame across and up, and pick the matching size from the 15 on this page. For wider openings, go up the range.

Will it fit a caravan or a motorhome?

Yes. It suits single doors, sliding doors, caravans and RVs, as long as you have a flat frame face for the velcro to press onto.

Can children walk through it on their own?

Yes, easily. That is really the point. The seam parts as they walk into it and the magnets pull it shut behind them, so there is no handle to reach and nothing to leave propped open.

Will my dog learn to use it?

Most dogs work it out in a day, and cats usually faster. If a pet is hard on mesh, look at a pet-grade screen instead.

Does it close on its own every time?

That is what the heavy black magnets are for. The seam pulls together from top to bottom rather than just in the middle, so it closes the same way on the hundredth pass as the first.

Can I see out through it?

Yes. The mesh lets light and air in and you can see the garden through it. From outside, in daylight, it reads as a dark doorway rather than a curtain.

Does it block the breeze?

No. Air moves through it freely. Leaving the door open on a warm evening without letting insects in is the whole reason to fit one.

How do I clean it?

Take it off the frame and wash it in warm soapy water, then hang it to dry before you put it back. It is easy to clean and it does not hold crease marks.

How do I open the package?

Carefully, and not with scissors or a blade. The mesh is folded inside the bag and a sharp tool can nick it. Open the bag by hand.

What if my doorway is between two sizes?

Go up, not down. Mesh will happily overlap a frame edge. It will not stretch to cover a gap, and a gap is exactly where insects get in.

What if my doorway is bigger than the largest size?

Request a custom made size through the quote page. These screens come in 15 set sizes and are also made to order, so an unusual opening is a quote rather than a dead end.

Will it blow about in the wind?

In a strong gust it will move, the same as any curtain screen. The magnets bring it back together as soon as the gust passes.

Does the colour affect how well it works?

No. Black and white are the same screen and the same price. Black gives the clearest view out because dark mesh is easier for your eye to see past.

How long does it take to fit?

Minutes. Line the screen up on the frame, press the velcro strip down from the top, and check the two halves meet cleanly down the middle.

How long will it last?

It is built for a long service life: a sturdier mesh than the cheap nylon versions, corrosion resistant, with the magnets sewn into the fabric rather than glued on.

The complete guide

Choosing a magnetic screen door

4 min read Simple Screens

Which size is right for you?

The range runs in 15 set sizes, from 70cm x 210cm up to 180cm x 240cm, so a narrow side entrance, a standard back door and a wide patio opening are all covered. Before you order, measure the door frame, not the door itself. The screen fixes around the opening, so the frame width and the height from the sill to the top of the frame are the numbers you need.

If your measurement sits between two sizes in the range, go up rather than down. Mesh will overlap a frame edge without any trouble. It will not stretch to cover a gap, and a gap is exactly where insects find their way in. And if your doorway sits outside the range altogether, a custom made size is available through our quote page.

How a magnetic screen door works

A magnetic screen door is two panels of fine mesh joined down the middle by a magnetic strip. You walk into it, the seam parts, and once you're through the magnets pull it closed again from top to bottom. No handle, no latch. That's why it gets used when a hinged screen door sits propped open all summer.

The detail that separates a good one from a cheap one is the closure. Budget screens use a handful of spaced magnets, which shut the middle but leave the top and bottom gaping just enough for insects. A full-height strip closes the whole seam.

Picking a colour

Colour doesn't change the price, so choose on looks and visibility. Black gives the clearest view out, because dark mesh is easier for your eye to see through than light mesh. White is about the frame: a white screen on a white uPVC frame reads as part of the door, while a black one outlines it.

Fitting it, and taking it down again

Fitting takes a few minutes. The velcro strip is already stitched to the screen, so it presses straight onto the door frame. Nothing is drilled and nothing is permanent, which is why this suits rentals as well as owned homes, and why most people take it down over winter and put it back up in spring.

Looking after it

Wipe the mesh down when it gets dusty. If it needs more than that, take the whole screen off, wash it in warm soapy water, and let it dry fully before refitting. Keep the magnetic strip clear of grit so the seam keeps closing flush.
