Typical Al Rashidiya, Ajman architecture with an insect screen on the window in front

Mosquito Nets in Al Rashidiya, Ajman

Al Rashidiya in Ajman is central residential quarters where older stock sits next to newer buildings. Because of that one district contains both standard modern profiles and frames that standard fixings will not suit.

01OLD AND NEW STOCK SIDE BY SIDE

In new flats the profiles are modern and standard and the fixing is straightforward. In older blocks the frames are of other series and the method is chosen on site.

02TWO DIFFERENT SETS OF FAILURES

In the older blocks it is dried-out mesh and frame corners that have opened. In the new ones it is ordinary rollers and catches.

03HARDWARE FOR OLD PROFILES DOES NOT ALWAYS MATCH DIRECTLY

Then an equivalent goes in, and we say so before the work starts rather than after.

04WHAT THAT MEANS IN PRACTICE

  • The survey matters more than a photo: the profile shows only in person
  • The next block in the same street may need a different fixing
  • The mesh gets washed of city dust rather than replaced
  • Access is open, no passes needed

What is built here

The district is built with residential blocks from different years. In the new flats the profiles are modern and standard and the fixing is chosen without difficulty. In the older buildings the frames come from other series, and the installation method is chosen on site.

That is the main practical difference within a single district, and it explains why the price cannot be named here over the phone: two neighbouring buildings may need different fixings.

Second: in the older stock screens are often already in place and have years behind them. The fabric has dried out, the cord has stretched, the corners have opened up. So the request for re-meshing rather than a new installation comes in regularly from here.

Third: there is no water nearby and mosquitoes are moderate. The main complaints are dust and flies.

Fourth: the district is central with traffic close by, and the fabric gets dirty faster than in the quiet quarters on the edge of the emirate.

What we have done here

We do not publish addresses. The survey is free, and if a screen is already in place, show it to the fitter.

Without speculation: in this district it makes sense to check the existing screens first. Often the frame is sound and only the fabric needs changing.

Getting to you

Access is unrestricted and passes are usually unnecessary. There is parking by the buildings.

A visit to Ajman is planned for a specific day. If there are several screens, we take them all to the workshop at once and return them fitted.

If there are several screens and some of them are old, it is worth gathering them into one visit. The fitter takes them all down together, carries them to the workshop and brings them back fitted. Across the central quarters that is noticeably faster than calling him to each screen in turn, and cheaper in money.

What breaks here most often

Old and new stock side by side produce two different sets of failures. In the ageing buildings it is dried-out fabric and frame corners that have opened up. In the new ones, ordinary rollers and catches. Hardware for older profiles sometimes cannot be matched directly, and then an equivalent is fitted, which we say before starting work.

Common questions

Why can't the price be named over the phone?

The district has buildings of different years side by side, and their fixings differ.

Can an old screen be re-meshed?

If the frame is sound, yes. That is cheaper than a new one.

How do I check the frame myself?

Lay the screen on a flat floor: it should sit on all four corners.

Is a pass needed?

Usually not.

Can I hand over several screens at once?

Yes, and it is cheaper that way: we take them all together.
