Insect screen systems
Ingenious and reliable
All in one: Schenker Storen’s insect screen system is a fail-proof solution for every window and every door. Protect your indoor rooms with our various insect screens that fulfil countless needs. They are inconspicuous, storm-proof and tear-resistant; they are also extremely easy to use and have a long service life.
They are really impressive with their high-quality materials, sophisticated technology and excellent workmanship. No matter if it is a mesh screen panel, swing door, rollable blind, pleated blind or sliding system, Schenker Storen has the ideal and perfect solution for every situation.
Variations
Sliding door
Sliding door
In this design, the insect screen systems are pushed open and shut along the sliding door. These sliding door systems slide with great ease in the tracks, brake gently and take up very little space. They are ideally suited for large lift-and-slide doors and tilt-and-slide doors. Designs with more than one leaf are possible in this variant and can cover a window surface area of up to 20 m2. They can be operated both from the inside and outside.
Pleated blind door
Pleated blind door
In this design, the textile of the insect screen folds away horizontally and is optimally protected when not in use. Due to its low installation depth, a pleated blind door is particularly suitable for small spaces. The pleated insect screen system has a sturdy aluminium frame and is completely free of any tripping hazards.
It is very quiet and can be operated both from the inside and the outside without any effort.
Swing door
Swing door
As a swing door, the insect screen system is characterised by its exceptional ease of use, as it can be operated hands-free. The door automatically swings back into its original position and as such has a reliable automatic locking mechanism. The swing door insect screen system is fitted with a crossbar to keep the unit stable.
Mesh screen panel
Mesh screen panel
All kinds of windows can be sealed without gaps with our mesh screen insect panel systems. It slots in easily into the window frame from the inside. The frames and the handles remain inconspicuous. The mesh screen panels are particularly robust, wind-stable and easy to clean. They are also suitable for use in listed buildings.
Rollable blinds
Rollable blinds
A rollable blind makes for a great insect screen both on windows and doors.
It is operated in the same way as a conventional rollable blind. The covering can be opened and closed with a wand or there is even a motorised version. In this design, the roller is fully integrated into a cassette and a spring brake prevents the weight bar shooting back up again. The retractable insect screen is also extremely wind-stable thanks to the guide rails down the sides.

There is a whole range of options on offer for our insect screen solutions, so they can best satisfy your needs and desires. Exclusive textiles and technical colours help you design your living space according to your own ideas. For even more comfort, certain designs can be controlled using our clever Smart Home solutions.

FAQs about insect screen systems
What types of insect screens and fly screens are available?
There are various solutions for windows and doors, including mesh screen panel, sliding, pleated, and swinging doors, rollable blinds, as well as special designs. Each option is suitable for different applications.
What material is the mesh made of?
The mesh of our insect protection systems is typically made of fiberglass. For special requirements, we offer additional options such as stainless steel mesh (extra strong & durable) and Polltec®-TFP mesh, which is ideal for allergy sufferers as it effectively filters pollen. This way, every system can be tailored to individual needs.
How do you properly clean and maintain a fly screen?
Regular cleaning ensures long-lasting protection and optimal airflow. Use a damp microfiber cloth or a vacuum cleaner with an upholstery nozzle to gently remove dust and pollen. Apply light pressure to avoid damaging the mesh. The frame profiles can also be wiped with a damp cloth. This keeps the insect screen clean and functional.
Are fly screens suitable for pets?
Yes. For households with cats or dogs, there are specially robust and tear-resistant pet meshes that are much stronger than standard meshes. Optionally, the systems can be equipped with cat or dog flaps in various sizes, allowing your pets to move in and out independently – ideal for balcony and patio doors.
Do fly screens also block pollen?
Yes. Special pollen protection meshes not only keep insects out but also filter a large portion of pollen from the air. These meshes are particularly suitable for allergy sufferers and allow comfortable ventilation even during pollen season.
Are there insect protection solutions for light wells?
Yes. Light well covers or basement shaft covers reliably prevent insects, dirt, or leaves from entering the shaft. These covers are custom-made and consist of weather-resistant, walkable stainless steel mesh. They provide a durable and visually discreet solution for basement and light wells.
