Barrier-free mosquito screens: no threshold underfoot

A barrier-free mosquito screen leaves nothing to trip on at the door. Our pleated screens run on a low flat bottom track that you step over, and a hinged screen door has no floor track at all. For a sliding patio or balcony door, a pleated screen costs AED 1,550 per door.

What barrier-free means for a mosquito screen

A door screen needs something to run in. On a pleated screen that is a bottom track, and the lower and flatter it is, the less you notice it.

Ours is a low flat profile. You step over it barefoot or with a trolley, and the pleated mesh folds away to the side.

A hinged screen door works differently. It hangs on hinges like a normal door, so the floor stays completely clear.

Five taps to your quote

Check your threshold first

Is the floor level across the whole doorway?

A low flat track sits evenly and the screen runs straight.

Tell the measurer. A low track needs a level floor, so a hinged screen door may suit better.

Does anyone at home use a wheelchair or a walker?

Say so when you book. The measurer will weigh the low track against a hinged door for your doorway.

Stepping over a low flat track takes no effort.

Is there room for a door to swing open?

A hinged screen door leaves the floor completely clear.

Choose a pleated screen: it folds sideways into its cassette.

How the measurer checks a doorway

Looks at the floor

Checks that it is level from jamb to jamb, where the track will lie.

Checks the frame

Finds a firm place for the cassette and the magnetic catch on your door frame.

Compares the options

Low flat track or a hinged door, side by side for your doorway and the way you use it.

Shows samples

Mesh samples and frame colours, so you decide on the spot.

Straight answers

Where barrier-free has limits

A few honest points before you book.

A pleated screen always has a track

Low and flat still means something on the floor. If the doorway must stay bare, choose a hinged screen door.

Hinged doors need space

The door swings open, so furniture and plant pots have to stay out of its way.

A sloping floor

A terrace that falls away from the house can stop a low track running straight. The measurer tells you on site.
