Closes behind you
Magnets run the length of the centre seam. Walk at it with your arms full and it opens, then pulls itself shut again on its own.
A magnetic screen door that closes itself behind you, and an electric swatter for the few that still get in. Leave the door open without letting the flies in.
A door screen only earns its place if it closes every time, including the times your hands are full. That is the job we build the range around.

60 to 180cm wide, in 180cm, 210cm or 240cm heights, black or white. Measure the frame, pick the size that covers it, and it ships from stock.
It fits inside the door frame rather than to the wall, so there is no drilling, no tradesman and nothing to swing or slide.
It lifts off at the end of summer without marking the frame, which is the part that matters if you are renting.
The screen comes in black and white. Black is the harder of the two to see from inside, so it blocks the view least; white suits white frames and lighter doorways.
A rechargeable electric zapper racket for whatever still gets in. It charges over USB, so there is nothing to keep buying.
Six doorways, and what the screen does in each one.






At Screen Doors Company we have been selling screen doors right across Australia for over 15 years. This page is the short version of what we have learned: which size suits which doorway, how to measure it, and what the screen is actually good at.
It is a pair of mesh curtains held shut down the middle by a line of magnets. You fit it to the door frame itself rather than to the wall, and it hangs in the open doorway. You walk at it, it opens, and it closes behind you on its own. Nothing to latch and nothing to slide.
That is the point of it. A hinged screen door needs space to swing and something solid to hang off. This needs neither, so it suits a back door you use forty times on a summer day, and it comes down again in autumn.
The screen is the same in both colours. Only the look changes.
Black is the one most people choose. From inside it is the harder of the two to see, so it takes least away from the view out, and it hides marks better on a door that gets used forty times a day.
White suits a white frame and a lighter doorway, where a black panel would stand out against the paint.
A mesh screen is not a security door and it is not an insect proof seal. It stops what walks and flies into an open doorway, which is what most people actually want in summer.
Measure the frame the screen will fit to, not the door itself, and measure the opening at its widest and tallest point. Our sizes run from 60 cm to 180 cm wide, and 180 cm, 210 cm or 240 cm tall.
If you fall between two sizes, take the larger one. A screen slightly wider than the frame still fits and hangs properly, whereas one slightly narrow leaves a gap down the side, and a gap is the whole problem you are trying to solve. If your doorway is outside that range, ask us before you order rather than guessing.
It is a DIY job and it takes about ten minutes. The screen fixes to the frame along the top and down both sides, so the only real decision is where the top edge sits. Get that line level before you fix anything, because a screen hung out of true will not close cleanly down the middle no matter how strong the magnets are.
Work from the top across, then down each side, keeping the mesh under light tension so it hangs flat. Take it down at the end of summer, fold it loosely and store it flat, and leave the velcro strip on the frame for next year.
Back doors and patio doors are the most common by a distance, usually somewhere with the door standing open all evening. After that: balconies, caravans and motorhomes, garages and workshops, and back-of-house doors in cafes and kitchens where the door has to stay open and the flies have to stay out.
If you are unsure which type suits your doorway, or your opening is an odd size, ask us first. We would rather answer two questions now than have you send a screen back.
