Screen door on the window frame
A screen door fitted to the window frame is mounted on the front of the frame. This means the fly screen covers the doorway rather than being fitted between the frame stiles. This method of fitting is ideal when there is insufficient space within the frame or when obstacles, such as a protruding door handle or ventilation grille, make fitting within the frame impossible. At KeJe, various fly screens are suitable for fitting onto the door frame, meaning there is a suitable solution available for almost any situation.
What is a fly screen fitted to the window frame?
With a fly screen door fitted to the window frame, the frame is attached to the front of the frame. Instead of being fitted between the inner dimensions of the window frame, the fly screen is mounted on the frame itself. This creates a flexible installation solution suitable for a wide range of situations.
This method of installation is often chosen when the window frame does not offer sufficient space for installation within the frame, or when protruding parts make installation difficult.
The advantages of a fly screen mounted on the window frame
Full passage width retained
As the fly screen is positioned in front of the door frame, the full width of the doorway remains available. This ensures a comfortable passage and added convenience.
Suitable where there are obstacles
A fly screen mounted on the door frame is a good solution where there are obstacles, such as a protruding door handle, ventilation grille or other parts that prevent fitting within the frame.
Flexible installation
Not every door frame is perfectly straight or offers sufficient installation space. Mounting the screen door onto the frame makes it possible to fit a suitable screen door even in these situations.
When should you choose a fly screen mounted on the window frame?
A fly screen mounted on the window frame is particularly suitable when:
- There is insufficient space within the window frame.
- There are obstacles, such as a protruding door handle or ventilation grille.
- You wish to retain the full passage width.
- Installation within the window frame is not possible.
In many cases, the available space around the window frame determines which installation method is most suitable.
