Fly screens can also be retrofitted without drilling. Depending on the installation situation, made-to-measure tension frames or integrated solutions offer a practical way to fit windows with insect screens.
WAREMA offers made-to-measure fly screens for different windows and requirements. Depending on the installation situation, they can also be retrofitted without drilling – for example, with tension frames that hook or clamp into place.
An integrated insect screen is also possible with roller shutter or external venetian blind systems designed to accommodate one.
Made-to-measure tension frames allow insect screens to be retrofitted to many windows without drilling. Depending on the design, the screens are hooked or clamped into place using angle brackets or spring-loaded fasteners. They can be removed again when needed.
The suitable fixing method depends on the window profile and installation situation. Your WAREMA specialist dealer can advise you.
On suitable windows, the tension frame is clamped into the window opening. Installation requires no drilling or screws in the window frame. Depending on the design, side handles make it easier to insert and remove the frame, for example for cleaning.
With suitable window profiles, standard angle brackets allow the tension frame to be hooked into place without screws. Depending on the design, the frame is lifted and guided outwards for removal. The exact fixing method depends on the window and installation situation.
Spring-loaded angle brackets make it easier to insert and remove the tension frame without tools. They are suitable for certain window profiles and installation situations. The existing window must be checked to determine whether this fixing method is possible.
Insect screens can also be integrated later into roller shutter or external venetian blind systems designed to accommodate them. Unlike a tension-frame fly screen, the screen mesh is installed directly in the sun shading system and can be retracted into the box when not in use.
Your WAREMA specialist dealer will check whether retrofitting is possible based on the existing system and installation situation.
Drill-free fly screens allow insect protection to be retrofitted to many windows, including in rented homes where the installation situation and tenancy agreement permit it.
- Made to fit: Custom-made for the individual window opening
- Flexible: Hooked or clamped into place without screws
- Removable: Easy to remove when needed
- Customisable: Choice of fixing methods and screen meshes
Drill-free fly screens may be suitable for different window profiles. Key factors include the frame geometry, rebate, surface offset and available space.
Each window must be checked to determine whether a tension frame can be clamped, hooked or secured with angle brackets.
Stability depends on factors such as dimensions, window profile and fixing method. For a made-to-measure tension frame, the fixing method is matched to the installation situation.
A drill-free fly screen may be suitable for a rented home because compatible systems require no screws in the window frame. Before installation, check any contractual or structural requirements that apply to the window.
Made-to-measure tension frames can be produced for many common uPVC, timber or aluminium windows. Whether a particular drill-free fixing method is possible depends on the specific window profile and available space.
Many tension frames that clamp or hook into place can be removed when needed, for example for cleaning. How they are inserted and removed depends on the chosen fixing method.
