“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.”

Sliding mosquito screen doors for balconies and patios
A sliding screen door is a mesh door on rollers that runs beside your glass balcony or patio door, in a spare channel of the track or on a slim track of its own. It costs from AED 670 per door with standard mesh, made to measure, and goes in 3 to 5 days after the free survey.


Why the sliding door needs a screen first
In most Dubai homes the sliding door opens more often than any window: out to the balcony, the garden, the barbecue. It stays open longer too, and it is the widest gap in the room.
Mosquitoes breed in standing water around sprinklers, pools and planters, then fly in through the largest opening. A screen door there does more than screens on windows you rarely open.

Price for your sliding screen door
Tap your door. Prices with standard mesh, made and fitted.
Can your door take a sliding screen door?
With both glass leaves pushed aside, is there an empty channel in the bottom track?
The screen door drops into it and nothing is drilled.
A slim track can go on a flat strip of the frame. Send a photo of the track corner.
Is the bottom track straight and whole along its length?
Rollers need an even line, and yours has one.
A bent or chipped track makes any panel jump. The measurer checks it first.
Do kids or a dog run through this door all day?
Take pet mesh at AED 800 per m², or look at a pleated screen, which parks itself in a slim cassette.
Standard mesh at AED 400 per m² keeps mosquitoes out.

What the measurer checks on your door
He counts them with the glass pushed aside and notes which leaf moves.
Floors and tracks are rarely level, so he measures both sides and the middle.
You choose which side the screen door waits on. The handle goes on the side you reach first.
Move plants and chairs a metre from the door and vacuum the track before we arrive.
Fitting day at a sliding door
When a sliding mosquito screen door is the wrong buy
Some doors need another screen.
Pushed aside, the screen door covers the fixed leaf. A pleated screen folds into a slim cassette at the jamb.
French and hinged doors have no line for a panel to run on. Look at hinged screen doors instead.
With no room for a line, a pleated screen with its own low track fits instead.

What people ask
How much is a sliding screen door in Dubai?+
A balcony or patio door starts from AED 670 with standard mesh, including making and fitting. A very wide opening starts from AED 810.
Do you have to drill or change my sliding door?+
Not with a spare channel: the screen door drops into it. Without one, a slim track is fixed to the flat strip of the frame, and the glass stays as it is.
Will insects get past the edges of the screen door?+
No. Brush pile on the upright edges presses on the frame, and the top guide holds the screen door in line, so no gap is left when it is closed.
What mesh colour is best for a sliding screen door?+
Standard mesh comes in grey or black. Black is easier to see through, grey shows dust less. The measurer brings both to hold against your door.
Sliding screen door or a retractable one for a patio door?+
In Dubai, retractable usually means a pleated or roller screen that folds or winds away. A sliding screen door costs less, from AED 670; a pleated one is AED 1,550 per door and leaves the glass clear.
Will it slide smoothly on a tall door?+
Yes, when the track is clean. A door panel has a heavier profile than a window one, so it stays square on its rollers.
Can I fit one in a rented flat?+
Yes. In a spare channel the screen door lifts out and moves with you. Ask the landlord first if a track has to be fixed to the frame.
How long does it take, and what is the warranty?+
3 to 5 days from survey to fitting. The frame is covered for 5 years, the mechanism and the fitting for 2 years each.
