How to choose a mosquito net for your home

Start with the opening, then how often you use it, then the mesh. A sliding balcony or patio door takes a pleated screen at AED 1,550 per door. A window starts from AED 380, a fixed frame costs AED 400 per m², a hinged garden door from AED 810. Cats and dogs call for pet mesh.

Choose a mosquito net in this order

The opening

Window, sliding door, hinged door or glass wall. The way it opens rules out half the systems at once.

How often you use it

A door you cross all day needs a screen that moves easily. A window opened on cool evenings can take a fixed frame.

What you keep out

Mosquitoes, midges, dust, sun or a curious cat. That decides the mesh, not the system.

Frame and rules

Space on the frame for a profile, and what your building or community allows on the facade.

Three questions before you order

Will people walk through this opening daily?

Choose a screen that opens: pleated, sliding or hinged.

A fixed frame screen is the simplest, with nothing to wear out.

Is there a free strip of frame around the opening?

A pleated profile can be fixed there.

A roller or sliding screen may fit better. The measurer checks on site.

Does someone at home use a walker or a pushchair?

Pleated screens run on a low flat track that is easy to cross; a hinged door leaves the floor bare.

Any system will do on that count.

Then choose the mosquito mesh

The system decides how the screen opens. The mesh decides what it keeps out and how much of the view you keep.

Standard mesh suits most homes. Pick another only for a clear reason: a cat, a dusty side facing the desert, glare on a west window or a bedroom that must stay dark by day.

Common mistakes when choosing

Choices that people often change later.

A magnetic curtain on a door used all day

It sags and the magnets weaken with use. A hinged or pleated screen holds its shape.

The same upgrade on every window

Pet or anti-dust mesh costs double and lets in less light. Put it only where the pet goes or the wind hits.

Ordering before asking the building

Towers and gated communities have rules for the facade. Ask first, then book the survey.

Questions

What people ask

What is the simplest mosquito net for a window?+

A fixed frame screen with standard mesh at AED 400 per m², so a 1.5 × 1.2 m window comes to AED 720. For a window you open daily, pleated or sliding screens cost from AED 380.

Which mosquito net suits a sliding balcony door?+

A pleated screen. It folds into a cassette at the side, runs on a low flat track and costs AED 1,550 per door.

Can I mix different screens in one home?+

Yes. Each opening gets the system that suits it, and all the profiles can share one RAL colour.

Do I need to measure before I call?+

No. Send a photo on WhatsApp for a first price. The measurer comes free anywhere in Dubai and brings mesh samples.

How long from survey to fitting?+

3 to 5 days from the survey. The screens are made to the measurements taken on site.

Do I need permission from my community?+

Ask first. In Emaar communities every contractor needs an entry permit, and community management says if your screen needs an NOC.
