 Advantages and disadvantages of mosquito roll nets

Mosquito nets are very popular. This is an excellent protection against mosquitoes and other small insects that are very annoying, especially in the summer. Often such products are produced in rolls. Let us see what are the advantages of such grids, and also consider the features of their installation.

What it is?

Everybody knows what a mosquito net is. However, products in rolls are different from ordinary nets and require special consideration. In modern building and hardware stores, roll (roll) models are quite common. Such products are particularly durable, so it can serve for many years.

The mosquito netting is a special design that represents a small flat box. The system is easily mounted above the window. The inner part of the structure is located inside the house or apartment.

Thanks to a special handle, you can easily remove the mosquito net, for example, in winter, when it is absolutely not needed. In the spring you can easily install it in its place. To do this, do not have to repeat the installation. It is enough just to lower the grid. Guides, which are located on the sides of the structure, help to evenly tension the fabric so that there is no gap left.

It is worth noting that the handle of such structures is special. It is designed in such a way that it is not only convenient to use. Also, it does not interfere with the closing of the window or door, which is very important.

The difference from the usual frame models is also the fact that such a grid does not fall out of the window, as it has reliable fastenings. The cloth is firmly fixed, as special latches are installed at the bottom of the system.

Product design allows them to perfectly fit into any setting.The grid and the construction itself do not stand out from the window, harmonize with the frames, do not spoil the overall interior of the room. In particular, this design is ideally combined with plastic windows. The snow-white neutral model will not attract attention. And if you want the system to be in harmony with the bright interior, you can choose any other body color. So the grid can be a "highlight" of the room.

Rolling nets are also made for doors. The principle of installation does not differ from that described above. The only caveat - you have to lift the grid each time to free the doorway and go through.

Special features

Similar products are multifunctional. In addition to the fact that they do an excellent job with their intended purpose, that is, they reliably protect against insects from entering the house, they also perform other tasks. For example, such nets can protect from dust and small debris that often flies through the window. In case of severe contamination, the net can be easily cleaned with ordinary water.

The main advantage of such a product is its reliability. Factory models are very different from homemade.

  • they are much stronger, withstand the load.Pets will not be able to break such a grid with claws;
  • they are completely sealed, which allows them to perform their tasks efficiently. Thanks to the special fixings, the mesh will always fit snugly to the window;
  • Such designs do not interfere with the use of the window.

In addition, such products do not deteriorate at all under the influence of sunlight, they are not afraid of temperature differences and moisture. Thanks to especially strong threads the grid does not lose the form and elasticity for years. Such models do not crumble or deform from the heat, as is often the case with ordinary grids.

This type of mosquito nets can be easily mounted. The system is easy to manage, just take care of it. The main thing is to choose the version of the protective canvas that is suitable for your window or door.

Kinds

Like most similar products, rolled mesh are different. A classic option can be considered roller shutter models that are designed for installation on windows. The model of the window type, as a rule, is easy and easy to install. The design is so compact that it is almost invisible, the curtains will hide it perfectly.Such anti-mosquito nets can open both horizontally and vertically.

Another type of similar product is door mosquito netwhich reliably protects from mosquitoes and other insects. If the house has a non-standard door (for example, a sliding or very large model), then it is recommended to choose the so-called "Italian" option. Italian models do not have clear restrictions on height and width, as is the case with standard protective nets. This allows you to install them in any non-standard openings.

The box in which the rolled mesh will be folded is usually made of aluminum. This is a high-quality aluminum alloy that will serve the owners for many years. Guides should also be made of aluminum.

It can be made from plastic. Typically, manufacturers use high-quality material, which over time does not deform and does not change color. The same plastic is used in the production of high-quality split systems.

When choosing a particular model, it is recommended to pay attention to the fact which installation is suitable for the installation of which one.For example, there are protective roller grids, suitable not only for structures with polymer or PVC coating. It can also be galvanized or metal construction.

If you have wooden frames installed in your house, you should clarify whether there will be any problems with installing the structure on a wooden base. The same should be done if the surface is welded. Ask if the weld on the frame will interfere with the full-fledged work of the mosquito net. All these subtleties can be learned from the experts who are engaged in installation of similar systems.

We should also mention the possibility of automation design. If desired, any selected model can be automated. Such a protective net will be opened and closed very easily, it will be possible to control it with the help of a remote control. Since this is an option, the total cost of the structure will increase.

Installation

Usually the installation of such systems is done by professionals who already have the knowledge and experience in this matter. However, if you have already mounted your own hands, for example, blinds, then you should have no problems installing the grid.The principle of mounting such structures is not complicated, which allows for installation on their own.

All components must be purchased with the system itself. Remember that installation should be made only with special fasteners designed for this design. Before starting the installation of the roller shutter system, it is recommended to remove the frame from the grid.

This will help you see the mount and provide access to it. Next, the mosquito net itself should be attached to the window or door (where it will be mounted) and mark the location of the fastener.

Then you need to remove the cover from the retaining strip, put it down, and then lift it up. This will help locate the mountings inside. The bar itself must be carefully and smoothly set around the perimeter of the window. If you do not forget to schedule the attachment points in advance, you will be able to do the job qualitatively. After that, you need to fill the grid under the bar and close the lid. The design is installed, you can use it.

Tips and tricks

Today, the production of mosquito nets is well established. Modern manufacturers provide a large selection of such products.You can easily find the option you need. And to design served for many years and reliably protected from insects, A few useful recommendations should be noted.

  • Before choosing a protective mesh option, consider whether installation is possible. Above the window or on the side there should be free space for mounting the structure.
  • It is recommended to wipe the net regularly, clean it from dust and dirt. This can be done with a damp cloth or sponge. Chemical detergents are best not to use, so as not to spoil the integrity of the canvas. Also, cleaning can be carried out with a vacuum cleaner, choosing a nozzle with a soft brush.
  • After the end of one spring-summer season and until the beginning of the next, the net will be safely stored in its box. Do not worry about its integrity and remove the structure for the winter. But if you still remove the system, then it should be stored only vertically.
  • If small debris remains on the grid, and you fold the canvas, the box can become clogged. This will impair the operation of the structure. Therefore, before closing the grid, you should remove all the garbage from it.
  • In order for the construction to last as long as possible,you need to be extremely careful during the folding of the canvas. Many sharply release the grid, which leads to a quick breakage of the spring. To avoid this, hold the canvas, allowing it to roll slowly and evenly.
  • Experts recommend at least once a year to lubricate the mechanism for better and durable work.
  • After the model is installed by the staff of a company, be sure to check the design for the presence of flaws. Also check the operation of the mechanism itself, it should be correct. The canvas should easily go and unwind, securely enter the mount. In addition, there should be no gaps.
