Horizontal Single Cassette Roller Fly Screen for Doors
Flies wandering in every time you open the patio doors? Our roller fly screen doors are made to measure here in the UK and fit most types of doors – sliding, bi-fold, single, double, French and conservatory. Prices start from £270 + VAT, built to your exact sizes. The cassette is aluminium and completely weatherproof, so it can be fitted inside or outside, onto wood, UPVC or metal frames. This range is designed for residential doorways – for commercial entrances, our heavy-duty commercial screens are the better fit.
Our retractable roller fly screen systems offer an excellent level of privacy whilst remaining easy to see through from the inside. As well as keeping out flying insects and other small pests, they are effective at reflecting harmful UV sunlight and will help keep out the vast majority of airborne pollutants, so you can keep the doors open without worrying about what’s drifting in.
Features of our roller fly screen doors include:
- Spring-tensioned mesh that resists sagging
- Polyester-coated frames that resist chipping and scratching
- Decor grey mesh that doesn’t block out the light
- 20/30 midge mesh option to help keep out the smaller flies
- Optional brake system for a smooth, controlled retract every time
- Wind pile option to hold the mesh in position in exposed spots
- Adjustable end caps giving 10 mm of tolerance for recess fits
- Toughened mesh available for households with claws
- UV protection that helps stop furnishings and carpets fading
- Fits door widths up to 1.5 m
The roller fly screen doors are really simple to install, the cassette will be pre-cut and built to your dimensions and along with the guides and magnetic enclosure, you simply slot the 4 components together as you install them onto your door.
Open the doors, let the breeze through, and leave the flies where they belong – outside.

Mesh Options | |
EASY VIEW MOSQUITO MESHOur new ‘Easy View’ mosquito mesh comes as standard in grey decor and uses an 18/16 weave, which keeps out most flies, mosquitoes, wasps, bees and spiders. The real benefit is in the name – you get excellent visibility through the mesh and plenty of airflow, so your rooms stay cool without feeling closed in. | |
MIDGE MESHIf your problem is the smaller stuff, choose our midge mesh instead. It has a finer 20/30 weave that we designed specifically for our roller fly screen system – fine enough to keep out most small midges (even the Scottish midge!) as well as the larger flies, while still letting as much air through as possible. | |
TOUGHENED MESHOur toughened mesh uses the same fine 20/30 weave with an additional coating, which helps it stand up to the occasional swipe from a pet’s claw. A word of caution though: roller fly screen doors aren’t designed to keep pets in. Every pet is different and we can’t guarantee one won’t find its way through the mesh, so give them time to get used to the screen and use something more robust if escape is a real risk. | |
SUNOX MESHAll our roller fly screens now come with Sunox mesh as standard. It’s naturally antibacterial and filters the air as it passes through, helping to prevent germs and bacteria forming and cutting down on polluting particles – a nice bonus on top of keeping the flies out. | |
Fittings & Hardware | |
FLUSH FITTING PROFILESThere are two ways to fit your retractable insect screen, and both give a neat, flush finish: Face fit – the screen is installed directly onto the face of the door frame. Recess fit – the screen sits inside the recess surrounding the door. | |
RECESS INSTALLATIONWorried about getting your measurements spot on? The recess fit option has sprung end caps that give you a 10 mm tolerance, so there’s a bit of forgiveness built in. | |
BRAKE SYSTEMThe brake slows the mesh down as it retracts, so you can just let go and it winds itself back in — no snapping back into the cassette. It’s a small thing, but it makes a real difference to how long the mesh lasts. | |
LIFT UP BASE BARThis lets you raise the bottom guide track out of the way, leaving a completely flush entrance. Especially handy if you need wheelchair access, or just don’t fancy a trip hazard on the way to the garden. | |
INTEGRAL BRUSH PILEThe side guides have an integral brush pile that seals right up against the insect mesh, so there are no gaps for anything to sneak through. The base guide measures 23 x 22 mm, as shown below. | |
WIND PILEIf you live in a windy area then consider having our interlocking wind pile installed, the filaments lock into the mesh to help hold it in position in windy conditions | |
EASY GLIDE WHEELSWheels at the base of the roller keep everything running smoothly, so pulling the mesh across and retracting it takes next to no effort. | |
MAGNETIC CLOSING SYSTEMFull-height magnetic strips run down the closing edge, so both the single and double roller fly screen doors stay firmly shut – no gaps, and no clips or catches to fiddle with. | |
CROSS-SECTION OF THE STURDY PROFILES3mm aluminium sections make our profiles the strongest on the market. | |
