Pleated mosquito screens for terrace openings

Wide glass doors from a villa living room to the terrace need a pleated mosquito screen built for width. Proxima and Double Centra span up to 8 m, and Corner closes a corner with no post. A standard patio door costs AED 1,550 on our list; wider spans and corners are quoted once the measurer has seen them.

The villa terrace opening in Dubai

In many Dubai villas the living room opens to the terrace and pool through a wall of sliding or lift-and-slide glass, the widest opening in the house.

The lawn sprinklers, planter trays and garden drains keep mosquitoes close to the terrace. Once the sun goes down and the glass opens, they find their way in.

On such a wall the pleated mesh parks in a slim cassette at the side. Folded, it leaves the whole view to the pool; drawn across, it turns the living room into a screened veranda.

Size up your terrace opening

Wider than 3.5 m from jamb to jamb?

Proxima or Double Centra.

Uno or Centra covers it.

Does the glass meet at a corner with no post?

Corner closes both sides and meets at the corner.

A straight opening takes one system.

Do you walk out through the middle, towards the pool?

Double Centra opens from the centre.

Proxima parks the mesh at one side.

Is the terrace an open pergola without walls?

Pleated needs a frame. Zip-track screens go between the posts.

Pleated fits the door frame.

How we plan a wide opening

Count the openings

Every door to the terrace gets its own screen, or one Corner system where two sides meet.

Pick the walk-through point

Out through the middle means Double Centra; along one side means Proxima.

Check the floor

The low flat bottom track needs a level line. Terrace tiles often fall towards a drain, so the measurer checks the fall.

Match the frames

The profile is powder coated to your frame's RAL colour. Colour costs AED 250 per running metre of profile.

Straight answers

Where a pleated mosquito net stops

A terrace can outgrow a pleated screen. Here is where.

An open pergola

A pleated screen needs a frame on each side. Between pergola posts, zip-track screens do the job.

Wider than 8 m in one span

No single pleated system covers it. We plan two screens that meet on a pillar or a frame post.

A wide panel in a shamal

Fold the mesh when the wind picks up. A closed wide panel on an open door catches the whole gust.

“The roller mechanism on our existing net broke. They replaced it with a new upgraded system that rolls smoother and locks in place better. Much better than the original.”

Questions

What people ask

What will a terrace door screen cost?+

A standard patio door is on our list at AED 1,550. Proxima, Double Centra and Corner on a wider opening are quoted at the free survey.

Can one screen cover my whole glass wall?+

Up to 8 m wide and about 3 m high, yes, with Proxima or Double Centra. A wider wall takes two screens.

Can the screen turn the corner of the terrace?+

Yes, if nothing stands in the corner where the two glass sides meet: that is the Corner system. If a post is there, we screen each side separately.

Will sand block the bottom track?+

Near the garden it collects sand. Vacuum the track now and then and the mesh keeps sliding freely.

Does the screen stay out in the sun all summer?+

It stays in the frame, folded in its cassette while you do not need it. The aluminium profile is powder coated.
