Product Information
Full details
The Pest Guard Magnetic Fly Screen Door is an ideal solution for homeowners and renters who want to enjoy natural ventilation while keeping insects out. Designed for busy households with kids and pets, it provides a seamless "hands-free" entry and exit experience thanks to its magnetic auto-close system. While highly effective, users should note that it requires a clean, flat door frame surface for the adhesive tape to maintain a long-term, secure hold.

FAQs
Can I trim this screen to fit a smaller door?
The screen is designed as a fixed size of 210x100cm; while minor adjustments are possible, cutting it may compromise the magnetic seal.
Is this screen effective against spiders and crawling bugs?
It is primarily designed for flying insects. While it covers the door, crawling insects may still find a way under the bottom edge.
Will the adhesive damage my door frame paint?
On most standard finishes, the adhesive is safe, but it is recommended to test a small, inconspicuous area first.
Can I leave the screen up during winter?
It is recommended to remove, wash, and store the screen during winter to extend the longevity of the adhesive and the mesh material.
What if my door frame is magnetic metal?
If your frame is metal, the adhesive tape will still work; however, be careful that the screen magnets don't stick to the frame itself instead of each other.
Troubleshooting
The screen does not close automatically after passing through.
Check that the mesh is hung perfectly vertical and that the magnets are not obstructed by debris.
The adhesive tape is peeling away from the door frame.
Clean the door frame surface thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and ensure the surface is completely dry before re-applying the tape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your door frame is cleaned with alcohol to remove any grease or dust, allowing the adhesive strips to bond fully. Apply the hook tape to the frame, press the mesh firmly against the hooks, and verify the magnets align vertically. For maintenance, simply detach the mesh from the frame when the season ends. The screen is machine washable on a gentle cycle; air dry the mesh before storing it in a cool, dry place. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes on the mesh to preserve the structural integrity of the fabric.
