Description
This fly screen door comes as two complete curtain sets, each sized for a single door up to 210 x 100cm, with magnetic edges that snap shut behind you and fixing tape included so no tools are needed, for $49.99. The mesh is removable, washable and can be trimmed to size.
The reason people give up on screen doors is not insects, it is hands. You come through carrying washing, a toddler, a tray of food or a box, and there is no free hand to close anything. So the door stays open and the flies come in anyway. Magnetic edges solve exactly that problem: you walk through, the curtain parts, and it pulls itself shut behind you without anyone doing anything. Two sets means you can do the back door and the front, or the house and the caravan.

Why Magnetic Beats a Hinged Screen
-
Closes with your hands full - the single reason these work where a hinged screen door fails, because nobody has a spare hand coming in from the line.
-
No tools, no drilling - it goes up on fixing tape, so it suits a rental and comes down without leaving holes.
-
Two sets included - front and back, or house and caravan, without paying twice.
-
Washable and removable - it comes down for a wash and goes back up, which matters after a summer of dust and salt air.
-
Trim to fit - doorways are never the size the packet assumes, and being able to cut it down is what makes it actually fit yours.
How Does a Magnetic Fly Screen Close Itself?
The two halves of the curtain have magnets running down the centre join. When you push through, they separate; as soon as you are past, they pull back together from top to bottom and seal the gap. There is no spring, no closer and nothing to adjust, which is also why there is very little to go wrong with them.
Will It Fit My Doorway?
Each set is made for a single door up to 210cm high by 100cm wide, and it can be trimmed down if your doorway is smaller. Measure the frame rather than the door itself before ordering. A doorway larger than 210 x 100cm is outside what one set covers.
Can Pets Walk Through It?
Most dogs and cats work it out quickly, because the curtain gives way at nose height and closes again behind them. Some pets take a few days and a bit of encouragement. It is one of the main reasons households choose a magnetic curtain over a hinged screen, since the pet can come and go without the door being left open.
Who Buys These
Anyone facing an Australian summer with a door that has to stay open for air. Renters who cannot fit a hinged screen. Caravan and camper owners. Households with pets that want the door open all day. It is also common in older homes and Queenslanders where the existing screens have perished and replacing them properly is a much larger job.
