    “We have a large Retractascreen and love the product. Had some issues with the screen and Peter has called on us unquestioning twice, worked cheerfully for well over an hour each time and would not take a $. Great service and back up, I recommend Retractascreen and thank Peter for his willingness and service. The screen is ideal for a large sliding door and folds away to nothing. A great idea for outdoor entertaining.”

Custom Fly Screens Melbourne - Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are custom retractable fly screens?

    RetractAscreen retractable fly screens are precision-made screens designed for larger openings, such as bifold doors, French doors, stacker and sliding doors.  They’re also a great solution for gas strut windows, stacker and bifold servery windows and casement or push out awning windows. They can be rolled away when not in use, allowing you to enjoy the fresh air while keeping bugs out.

  • What are the benefits of having custom retractable fly screens?

    Custom retractable fly screens can enhance your lifestyle by allowing you to enjoy your space free from uninvited guests. Imagine being able to open your home up to the fresh air whilst dining with friends or simply relaxing inside without the constant annoyance of flying insects. With RetractAscreens, you can open your doors and windows to let in fresh air and natural light while keeping those pesky bugs out.


    A RetractAscreen allows you to enjoy your beautiful views from the bug-free comfort of your home. Unlike some of the concertina or pleated screens on the market, RetractAscreen features sheer, smooth fibreglass mesh for your uninterrupted viewing pleasure. There are no unsightly creases, folds or cords when it’s in use, and no bunching or scrunching – a truly, fully retractable fly screen.


    Believe it or not, retractable fly screens also have a largely unrecognised health benefit through reducing reliance on chemical-based insect deterrants.  Much better for your family’s health, pets and wildlife and for planet earth!


    And the benefits don’t stop there—custom retractable fly screens can also improve the efficiency of your home. RetractAscreen helps avoid excessive and unnecessary energy costs by reducing running time on fans and coolers.  You can freely open doors and windows and invite the fresh breeze in on a cool morning or balmy evening.

  • Are custom retractable fly screens easy to operate?

    Yes, RetractAscreen is easy to operate with a smooth twist-and-pull or click-and-draw action.  RetractAscreens can be pulled down or rolled away with minimal effort, making them a convenient and practical addition to your home.  Window screens typically pull downwards and, with RetractAscreen’s handy Reach-Guide, it’s easy to use for all heights and ages. Door screens roll out of the housing with minimal effort and glide smoothly along the tracks.

  • How do I measure for custom fly screens?

    Simply run a tape measure over the opening to get the height and width of your window or door.  The fly mesh only covers the part of the window or door that opens, so there’s no need to include the frames when you measure.  Once you have an idea of the size, you can call us to get an idea on the price.  We recommend for accurate quoting and manufacturing that you make an appointment for a site visit by one of our RetractAscreen design professionals who will take precise measurements and help you select the right custom retractable fly screens for you.

  • Are custom retractable fly screens available in different colours and materials?

    Yes, the aluminium components for our custom retractable fly screens are available in Colorbond® colours to match your existing decor and personal taste. RetractAscreen Slimline and Premium ranges offer different mesh options varying in strength and design so you can select the fibreglass mesh to best suit your lifestyle and particular needs.

  • How do I clean and maintain my custom fly screens?

    Monthly cleaning and maintenance of your RetractAscreen is quick and easy requiring minimal effort - no need for washing, scrubbing or harsh chemicals.  Simply dust the mesh with a soft feather or microfibre duster, then follow up with quick brush and vacuum of the tracks to loosen and remove any dust or debris.!  The tracks will need a light spray with an approved silicone lubricant ensure smooth operation and prolong the life of the screens.  On installation, we will demonstrate the cleaning routine and provide you with a Care & Maintenance Kit – Instruction Leaflet, Silicone Spray and a Brush for the tracks.

  • Are your custom fly screens weatherproof?

    No. Simply put, they’re designed for insect exclusion, not weatherproofing! Whilst our retractable fly screens are made from quality materials for long-lasting performance and durability, the mesh in particular should never be left exposed to the elements when not in use.  They are not intended for use as sunshades or water barriers! The powder-coated aluminium tracks and housing will comfortably resist any deterioration from prolonged exposure to the elements, but care must be exercised with the mesh ensuring it is properly rolled away after use.  The mesh is perfectly protected by the robust housing during high winds, heavy rain and extreme temperatures.

  • Do custom retractable fly screens have a warranty?

    Yes, our custom retractable fly screens come with a 5 year product and workmanship warranty – that’s longer than some luxury cars!  Every screen is covered by a guarantee against component defect or installation failure.   We are confident in the robust design and proven durability of our screens and the expert craftsmanship of our installers. We stand behind our products and are committed to ensuring that our customers are satisfied with their purchases.
