Features & Benefits of screen mesh

When choosing the right mesh type for screen doors and window screens, there are a few factors to consider:

1. Insect protection: If your main goal is to keep insects out of your home, you’ll want to choose a mesh with small enough openings to prevent insects from passing through. Fine mesh options, such as fiberglass or aluminum, tend to be the most effective at keeping insects out.
2. Visibility: If you want to maximize visibility through your screens, you may want to choose a mesh with larger openings. This will allow more light to pass through and give you a clearer view of the outside.
3. Durability: Different mesh types have varying levels of durability. For example, fiberglass mesh is generally more durable than nylon mesh, but it may not be as effective at blocking insects. Consider the level of durability you need based on your specific needs and the location of the screens.
4. Cost: Different mesh types can have different price points. Consider your budget when choosing a mesh type and balance your needs with your budget to find the best option for you.
5. Aesthetics: The type of mesh you choose can also affect the appearance of your screens. Consider the overall style and aesthetic of your home and choose a mesh type that will complement it.
6. Climate: The climate in which you live can also affect the type of mesh you choose. For example, if you live in an area with high humidity, you may want to choose a mesh that is resistant to moisture to prevent rust and deterioration.

Fiberglass:
Standard Fiberglass Window Screen is the most popular screen as it’s the most reasonable in price.

Standard Fiberglass screen mesh is very easy to work with and popular for DIY projects, Charcoal color helps enhance outward visibility.

A special type of screening material is also available in the market now a days. Which is Vinyl Coated Polyester. It’s stronger and heavier than Fiberglass window screen.

You may also find it in the market as Pet Screen. It’s hard for the dog or cat to rip this screen easily.

Metal:
Aluminium screen is also widely used as door or window screen material. It’s slightly more durable than Fiberglass Window Screen.

But Aluminium mesh creases and dents very easily and hard to work with. Also it oxidize very quickly in coastal area.

If you choose to go with metal screening anyhow then bronze might be the better choice. it doesn’t oxidize in salty air but the color turns to dark brown or even green from bright coppery color.

Solar Screen:
Solar or Sun Screen is now being used in those area where sun protection is needed. It reduce air condition load and keeps furniture safe from fading.

So it’s bit challenging choosing the right mesh for window and door. Better you

Do solar screens keep heat out?
Solar screens can reduce UV damage,glare and solar heat gain. They can be installed on the exterior or interior as fixed panels  or roller shades, and they usually allow for light transmission and a view out the window. They look alike regular insect screens and provide much more efficiency benefits.

How effective are solar window screens?
Best quality Solar screens have about an 80% to 90% heat and light blocking rate. This essentially measure you only have 10% to 20% visibility with solar window screens. Although Window film blocks 99% of ultraviolet rays and allows 100% visibility – this actually increase your view through reducing glare.
